Field Information

Site

The site ID.

Note: Only visible if multisite functionality is active.

Item

The item code of the component. You can use both generic and standard items. A generic item may also be the main item in another generic bill of material. A standard item can also be a main item in a production bill of material.

The components must be items with the item type:

  • Purchased
  • Manufactured
  • Product
  • Generic

The component must be predefined in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session. From this field, you can directly record items in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.

Description

Enter the code for the language in which you want to print the texts that you previously selected.

Main Item

The code of the configurable item. This description can differ from the item description as defined in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session. In this way, the unique place of a component within a generic product structure can be indicated, which is of value for the product configuration process.

Position

The position number of the component allows unequivocal recognition of the generic bill of material. This number is comparable to the position number in the production bill of material. In a generic bill of material, however, several variants can be defined for each position number.
