Defining BOM Line - Material - Routing Relationships
For a manufactured item, you can define multiple routings. Every routing consists of a different series of operations. You can use the material-routing relationships defined in this session to determine for every routing on which operation a specific material must be present on the job shop.
In the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session, you must specify for a BOM line on which operation the material of the BOM line is issued to the job shop:
- If you enter zero (0) in the Operation field, the BOM Line - Material-Routing Relationships (tibom0140m000) session is used to determine on which operation the material is issued. If no material-routing relationship exists, the material is issued at the first operation.
- If you enter a value other than zero (0) in the Operation field, for example, 10, the material is issued at operation 10. This operation applies to all routings that are defined for the manufactured item. If the operation does not exist for the manufactured item's routing(s), the BOM line material is issued at the first operation of the routing.
Note:
- Material-routing relationship information is used in Enterprise Planning, the Standard Cost Calculation module, and job shop order generation.
- You can start this session from the Bill of Material (tibom1110m000) session. You can start the BOM Line - Material-Routing Relationships (tibom0140s000) session from a BOM line in the GBF browser for item engineering data. The GBF browser is invoked from the Item Engineering Data (GBF) (tiipd0203m000) session.
