Before You Display a BOM Group
You have two options for identifying a BOM group:
On the Detail screen: Header: Quantities/Long text you can enter a common name for the BOMs that belong together in the BOM group field. This alphanumeric character string is used to identify the BOM group in a specific plant or group.
If you do not make an entry in the Plant field (value Blank), the system looks for a group BOM. If you want to display the BOM group in a specific plant, enter the plant.
In BOM maintenance, entering a BOM group is optional. If you do not define a BOM group, you can only use this display function if you enter the material and usage of the related BOMs.
If you do not make an entry in the Plant field (value Blank), the system looks for a group BOM. If you want to display the BOM group in a specific plant, enter the plant.
Validity period
To restrict the validity period for displaying the BOM group, you have the same options as for displaying a simple BOM.
