Purpose

With BOM transfer in the order browser, you can execute BOM transfer on one of the following levels:

Since in this case the system always knows the current position within the BOM, even if you access it via a sub- tree or assembly, it can determine the characteristic value assignment and quantity for multi-level configuration.

For more information on order BOMs and the order browser, see Structure link Order BOM or Structure link Working with the Order Browser and Order Analysis

Prerequisites

If you work with variant configuration, you have selected the result-oriented order BOM in the Configuration profile for the configurable materials.

You have maintained the reference points in the BOM items and in the network activities.

Process Flow

  1. You check in order Structure link analysis, whether one or more assemblies are used several times in the multi-level BOM for a sales order item.

    2. If this is the case, swap the material in the corresponding node in the order browser, before you continue with the next steps. For more information, see Transfer and Assemblies used more than once.

  2. Before you trigger the transfer, refresh the BOM explosion in the order browser if necessary, to ensure that the current status is transferred.
  3. You select a node and trigger the BOM transfer.

    4. The system transfers the whole tree or sub-tree below the selected node, to the Project System. If configurable assemblies are contained in the tree or sub-tree, the system determines the configuration and transfers the components, which were selected during characteristic value assignment for this node.

    The BOM transfer screen appears.. The data in the selected node is copied to this screen.

  4. You execute BOM transfer.

Result

If you start BOM transfer from the order browser, the system determines the quantities of each component as the product of the following quantities:
