Which focus objects the system selects, depends on the focus of the working area that you are working in, see Focus Objects table.

If you enter selection criteria for object types that are in a hierarchical relationship, the objects that fulfill these criteria must also be in a hierarchical relationship. Therefore, for the BOM header focus, BOM header C is not a focus object. BOM header C is used for production and also has (together with item C20) an item Screw M42 which is used in assembly at work center WRK CTR 01, as well as (together with C11) a sub-item with the sub-item number 007. However BOM header C would only be a focus object, if sub-item C11 were assigned to item C20.
