Example: Creating Without Variant Configuration

The material BOM for material A contains components B and C, which are themselves assemblies. The material BOM for material C contains components D and E and the material BOM for material C contains components F and G.

Multi-Level BOM for the Sales Order Item

( )

A sales order is created for customer Smith, with the number 821. Material A is inserted under sales order item 10 in this sales order. At the request of customer Smith, for this sales order, the bill of material for assembly C is changed manually. Component H is added to components F and G. This change should not take effect in the material BOM, because assembly C is only expected to be produced once in this form, for customer Smith.

An order BOM is generated from the material BOM for material C. Since nothing was changed in the bills of material for materials A and B, in this sales order the material BOM will continue to be used for these assemblies.
