Definition

This indicator is used to determine which version of an item is valid for a BOM explosion.

Use

The indicator is only relevant to a BOM item if:

  • the item has been processed with reference to a change number that is valid after the valid from date and
  • the valid-from date (in the change header or alternative date) has been shifted, such that the date shift changes the sequence of validity periods of a BOM item.

The changed sequence of validity periods for a BOM item result in two item validity periods overlapping. Different versions of an item with different change numbers exist in this overlap period.

Using this indicator you define whether and by what rules the system determines a unique change status when you display, evaluate or change a BOM to a date in the overlap period

Procedure

Set one of the following values:

  • Value ' ' (Blank): All versions of an item

    Within the overlap period the system determines all the versions of the item. Each version is listed with the same item number and the different change numbers.

  • Value 1: Version created most recently

    If more than one item version is valid during the overlap period, the system only determines the most recently created item.

  • Value 2: Version with latest valid-from date

    If several items are valid on a specific date during the overlap period, the system determines the item with the most recent valid-from date.
