Creating a physical breakdown from an item breakdown

You can use the Create Physical Breakdown Structure (tscfg2210m000) session to create the physical breakdown from an item breakdown.

Note: The item breakdown can be copied from a standard production BOM.
  1. Access the Create Physical Breakdown Structure (tscfg2210m000)session.
  2. Select Item Breakdown in the Source field.
  3. Select the target in the Target field. Possible values:
    • Installation Group: The top item in the item breakdown is set as the top-serialized item in the physical breakdown. The components in all levels in the item breakdown are exactly copied to the serialized items. The serial number of the serialized item is created according to a mask.
    • Breakdown: The top item of the item breakdown must exist as a child item in the physical breakdown that is specified. The components in all levels in the item breakdown are exactly copied to serialized items. The serial number of the serialized item is created according to a mask.
    • New Breakdown: The application creates a new physical breakdown.
  4. Specify the code for the installation group, item or serial number in the Installation Group, Item, Serial Number fields.
  5. Specify this information in the Defaults section:
    • The serialized item group to which the newly created serialized items belongs.
    • Service department (optional).
    • Delivery time (optional).
  6. Select the Check Effectivity check box to specify a date that the application uses to check the validity of the item-breakdown components. The application only copies the components that are valid on the entered date.
    Note: This check box must be cleared to copy all the components.
  7. Select the Generate Dummy Serial Numbers check box, and any of the other check boxes as required, from the Options section.
