Documentation

Definition

This indicator shows that this item is relevant to the sales and distribution area of a company.
For example, in sales order processing vor variant products, you see items that are relevant to sales as order items for the header material.

Use

This item status indicator is used to control:

  • subsequent processing in related application areas
  • which items are selected in the BOM explosion
    The indicator does not interrupt the explosion of the BOM to the lowest lever. There are two steps to the BOM explosion:
  • First, the system explodes the entire BOM, regardless of the indicators selected to restrict items. You do not see the result of this explosion on the screen.
  • Second, the system reads the indicators selected to restrict items, such as the Relevant to sales indicator.
    This status indicator works as a filter. The explosion result you see on the screen only includes the items that fulfil the selection criteria. In this case, only the items that are relevant to sales are shown.
