Use

You can use this function to extend a BOM by adding items that are already contained in other BOMs. Once you have copied an item from the source BOM to the BOM you are processing, you can change the item data.

Procedure

How to extend a BOM:

You can see the item overview.

  1. Choose Edit ® Extend...

You see the Extend... dialog box. Enter the data of the BOM you want to copy.

Note

You can only copy from a configurable BOM if the BOM you are processing is also configurable.
  1. Confirm your entries.

If you are copying from a multiple BOM and have not entered an alternative in the Extend... dialog box, the system displays the alternative overview. Select an alternative as a template.

The item overview of the template BOM appears.

If you want to check all data for an item, select the item and click This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

  1. Select the items you want to copy.
  1. Click This graphic is explained in the accompanying text to copy all selected items.

The system copies the selected items from the source BOM to the BOM you are creating or changing.
The same checks are made as when you enter items manually. For example, the system checks for recursiveness.

If necessary, correct the copied item data.

Note

The Extend function only copies the selected items in the BOM you are copying.
If you do not select any items, you can return to the BOM you are processing by clicking This graphic is explained in the accompanying text. No data is copied to the new BOM.
  1. If copied data is missing or incorrect, first you need to correct or complete the data. For this purpose, the system displays the relevant item detail screen. For example, the data transfer for recursiveness can take place (see the Basic data tab page, group frame General data).
