Definition

Direction for exploding a component.
You can reconstruct the exact structure of a BOM using the path of the predecessor and the component.

The level or path are relevant only for planning with dummy assemblies.
Together, the level and path specify the exact position of a dummy assembly within a bill of material

Example

A bill of material contains the following dummy assemblies (DummyAS) and materials:

Material A
_________________________|__________________
| | |
| | |
DummyAS B DummyAS C Material D
_____|________ _____|______
| | | |
| | | |
DummyAS E Mat. F Mat. G Mat. H
|
|
Mat. J

To track the position of individual dummy assemblies within the BOM structure, the levels and paths are assigned according to the following logic:

  • A number is assigned to each BOM level
  • A number is assigned to each BOM path

In the following bill of material, the first number indicates the level and the second indicates the path. If a material is not a dummy assembly, "0" is specified as the number of the level/path. If a material is a component of a dummy assembly group, the component inherits the level and path from the dummy assembly group.

Material A
(0/0)
_________________________|__________________
| | |
| | |
DummyAS B DummyAS C Material D
(1/1) (1/2) (0/0)
_____|________ _____|______
| | | |
| | | |
DummyAS E Mat. F Mat. G Mat. H
(2/1) (1/1) (1/2) (1/2)
|
|
Mat. J
(2/1)
