Bill of Material. Number used in combination with the BOM category to uniquely identify a BOM or a BOM group. The system assigns this number internally. These numbers are irrelevant to the user. You access the BOM by entering the object (for example, material or equipment) to which the BOM belongs.The system stores the following information under this number:all alternatives in a multiple BOMall variants in a variant BOMBOMs that are allocated to more than one plant. Maximum length: 8.
BOM category. This key defines a BOM according to the object (such as material or equipment) to which it is linked. Material BOM - linked to a materialEquipment BOM - linked to an equipmentOrder BOM - linked to material, sales order and sales order item. Maximum length: 1.
BOM component. Material number of the components that you enter, change or display as part of the BOM. A master record is usually maintained in the system for a component. Maximum length: 40.
Item Category (Bill of Material). Categorization of the items in a BOM according to set criteria, such as whether they refer to an object (for example, material master or document info record) or whether they are kept in stock. This categorization allows you to process data that is relevant to the individual items in a BOM. The item category is used to control field selection, default values for BOM maintenance, triggering of specific system activities, and so on.Stock itemThis item category is used to manage material data that allows an item to be kept in stock.Document itemThis item category is used to manage document data that allows you to process original application data (for example, graphics created with a graphics program).Class item (for configurable BOMs)In configurable material BOMs, you can enter a class as a placeholder for selectable items. The class can contain either materials or documents.When you assign characteristic values while configuring the BOM, the system replaces the node with an object that has the same values as those assigned to the characteristic of the configuration. This makes BOMs with a larger number of variants easier to maintain, as you do not have to enter all items manually and assign a selection condition to them.Class items can be relevant to MRP.PM structure elementThis item is used to structure an equipment (PM assembly) for design purposes only.If you want to maintain a material for use as a PM structure element, use material type IBAU. Maximum length: 1.
Bill Of Material Item Node Number. Maximum length: 8.
BOM Item Number. This number refers to the sequence of BOM components. Maximum length: 4.
Component quantity. Quantity of the component, which is entered in relation to the base quantity of the product. You usually enter the quantity without a +/- sign (for example, 66).For the following materials, you enter the quantity with a - sign(for example, 22-):Materials that are marked as co-productsIntra materials (in process industries)In display functions, the system calculates the current component quantity from the required quantity and the base quantity.Required quantityCurrent component quantity = ------------------ * Saved component quantityBase quantity.
Component Unit of Measure. The unit for the component quantity. The system determines the unit as follows:Material items with a material master record - base unit of measure from the material master record.Class items - unit defined in the additional data of the class.Additional units for material items with a material master record:For material items, you can maintain alternative units of measure to the base unit of measure in the material master.In bills of material, not all alternative units of measure are taken into account - only the unit of issue.Possible values are:base unit of measureunit of issueunits of measure that have the same dimension as either the base unit of measure or the unit of issueIf you enter no unit, the system proposes a unit from the material master if the item has a material master:If the unit of issue was entered on the storage detail screen, the system copies this unit. Otherwise, it copies the base unit of measure. Maximum length: 3.
Global identification of an item's change status.
Alternative BOM. Identifies one BOM in a BOM group. One product or assembly can be described by a number of (alternative) BOMs that represent, for example, different manufacturing processes for different lot sizes. These alternative BOMs are grouped together as one multiple BOM.Alternatives are maintained separately for each BOM usage. Maximum length: 2.
BOM Usage. This key defines the area (such as engineering/design or production) where a BOM can be used. By setting various indicators, you can define the maximum configuration of the item status and define whether an item must be or cannot be processed in a particular area (such as production).A material is used in the areas production and costing in a company. For each area, you maintain a separate BOM with different items:Production BOM:This BOM contains items that are relevant to production. These items are copied to the planned order. Dependent requirements are generated for them, and they are copied to the production order.Costing BOM:This BOM contains items that are relevant to determining the material costs of a product.When you calculate production costs using a quantity structure, the system automatically determines the BOM and all the BOM items that are relevant to costing, in order to calculate manufacturing costs. Maximum length: 1.
BOM usage text. This text describes the key for the BOM usage, which represents the specific company organizational area in which the BOM is used (eg. engineering or production). Maximum length: 30.
BOM Version. Maximum length: 4.
BOM Item Text (Line 1). Text of up to 40 characters, which forms the first of two lines of text describing the item. If this text length (two lines of 40 characters each) is not sufficient, you can also enter a long text by choosing menu option Extras -> Long text -> Item.When you create an item long text, the first 80 characters of the BOM item text are copied to the long text.If you change the BOM item text, the first 80 characters of long text are automatically changed, too. If you change the first two lines of the BOM item long text, the short text is automatically changed.Note:For text items, this text is copied to the component description field on the item overview. Maximum length: 40.
BOM Version Status. Maximum length: 2.
Short Text for Fixed Values. This text appears when fixed values are displayed in the F4 help. It explains the possible input values. SeeTask-Oriented InstructionsReference Documentation for Semantic Properties of Domains. Maximum length: 60.
Change Number. Number used to uniquely identify a change master record. If you make a change with reference to a change number, or create an object with a change number, the following functions are at your disposal:The system determines the validity conditionsThe conditions that the change is effective under can be defined in the change master record as follows:Changes with a date validity (valid-from date)Changes with parameter effectivity (for example: serial no. effectivity)Log of the changes madeDocumentation of the changesAssignment of a revision level to a change state of a material or documentRelease of changes for the different areas in the company. Maximum length: 12.

Material Number. Alphanumeric key uniquely identifying the material. Maximum length: 40.
Material Description. Text containing up to 40 characters that describes the material in more detail. You can enter one material description in each of any number of languages.In principle, you enter the material description on the data screen of the first user department for which you enter data, and in your logon language. You can overwrite the material description on the Basic Data screen. Maximum length: 40.
