Definition

Categorization of BOMs according to how they represent different product variants and production variants.

You can extend a simple BOM to form one of the following:

Procedure

The system allocates technical types:

  • according to the number of alternative BOMs
    When you create the first alternative for a BOM, the technical type is not yet defined. If you extend the BOM by creating an alternative, the system automatically assigns the technical type multiple BOM.
  • according to the transaction
    If you create a BOM using the Create variant of... function, the system assigns the technical type variant BOM. After this, you can no longer create alternatives for the BOM.

Examples

Multiple BOM - M

One product can be produced according to different manufacturing processes from different components and component quantities: one product has more than one alternative BOM.
