Definition

The order level or the order path are only relevant for planning with phantom assemblies.

Order levels and order paths together indicate the exact item of a phantom assembly within a bill of material.

Example

A bill of material contains the following phantom assemblies (PhantAs) and materials:

Material'A'
_________________________|__________________
| | |
| | |
PhantAs'B' PhantAs'C' Material'D'
_____|________ _____|______
| | | |
| | | |
PhantAs'E' Material'F' Material'G' Material'H'
|
|
Material'J'

To be able to trace individual phantom assemblies through the BOM structure, the order levels and paths are given according to the following logic:

  • One number for the order level is given per BOM level
  • One number for the order path is given per BOM path

In the following BOM, the first number shows the order level and the second number shows the order path. Here, the following is valid: If a material is not a phantom assembly, the number '0' is given as level and path. However, if a material is a component of a phantom assembly, then the phantom assembly passes its level and path on to this component.

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