You can choose Material BOM ® Display to display the item overview of a specific variant in a BOM group. You see the General Item Overview screen with all valid items.

How to display one variant BOM:

  1. From the bills of material menu, choose Material BOM ® Display.
  2. You see the Display material BOM screen.

  3. Enter your data on the initial screen.
  4. Enter a validity period, and the required quantity for which you want to see the Material item overview with all valid items.

    Note

    When you are working with a variant BOM, the alternative is not relevant. For this reason, you do not need to make an entry in the Alternative field. The system ignores any entry you do make. If the system displays a message informing you that you have entered an alternative, confirm the message.

  5. Confirm your entries.

You see the Material Item Overview. From this screen, you can use all the general display functions for BOMs.

From each header detail screen, you can display a specific long text for the variant. This is only used to describe the individual variant within the BOM group. This text is displayed in the AltText field. (In a multiple BOM, this field refers to an alternative.)
