Special Procurement Key for Phantom Assemblies

You can define whether special procurement key 50 (phantom assembly) is read.

Special procurement key 50 is assigned in the MRP data of a material master record. This key means that components of these assemblies are grouped together for logical or logistical reasons, but the assembly is not actually assembled.

If the special procurement key is read, the phantom assembly is not displayed. The components of the phantom assembly are exploded below the next assembly up.

If the special procurement key is ignored, the phantom assembly is displayed.

(See the R/3 Library PP Material requirements planning (MRP) Phantom Assemblies)

Scope of the BOM Explosion

You can define the following settings for the BOM explosion:

The characteristics of configurable assemblies are shown.
The dependencies for variant parts are shown.
Only assemblies and class items are shown.
Only configurable assemblies are shown.
Components are displayed whether they have been selected or not.

Components that have not been selected are checked with an x.
