Example: Creating a Change Status with Date Validity
On the BOM headers overview you create BOM header B with change number AE1. The related change master record AE1 has date validity with the valid-from date January 01, 2005. You go to the Items overview and create - once again with change number AE1 - item B10. Graphic 1 shows the validity of the new objects. BOM header B and item B10 are valid from January 01, 2005 to December 31, 9999.
Graphic 1: Validity
For item B10, change number CH1 and its validity period are displayed on the Items overview (see graphic 2).

You then select change number CH2 and create item B20. Change master record AE2 has date validity with the valid-from date July 01, 2005. Item B20 is therefore valid from July 01, 2005 to December 31, 9999 (see graphic 3).

On the Items overview, item B20 is displayed in a different color (see graphic 4).
