Use
The bill of material (BOM) of a configurable material contains all the components that are required to manufacture the material. The BOM contains components that are only used in specific variants (variant parts), as well as components that are used in all variants (non-variable parts).
This is why BOMs for configurable materials are known as super BOMs.
Features
When you maintain BOMs for configurable materials, there are additional functions:
You can assign the following dependency types to BOM items:
To ensure that variant parts are selected when they are needed in a variant, you assign selection conditions to the variant parts.
