Replacing outdated materials and designating use-up materials in JSBOMs

This topic describes how to replace an outdated material with a replacement material in a JS bill of material (BOM) and specify the outdated material as a use-up material.

If you use Engineering Data Management to control changes in a BOM, you this procedure does not apply.

Step 1. Start the Where-Used BOM Component (tibom1512m000) session
Step 2. Insert BOM line

The BOM line must have the same BOM position number as the outdated component

Step 3. Specify the date for the switch

Enter the date when the switch must occur in the Expiry Change Order field for the outdated component.

Step 4. Specify the date for the new component to become effective

The date entered in the Effective Change Order field, must be the same as the one in the Expiry Change Order field.

If the outdated component is not used anymore in any BOM, you must set the item's last allowed order date in the Item - Ordering (tcibd2100m000) session. If the last allowed order date is specified by warehouse, you must use the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2510m000) session.
