PRINT BILLS OF MATERIAL WHERE-USED REPORT

Use this screen to print a list of assemblies for a selected range of component part numbers. You can include the first-level assemblies of the component, the entire indented where-used list through all the levels, or an indented where-used list through a specified number of levels. When the engineering bills of material (EBOM) features are functional (the Use Engineering Bills of Materials check box is selected in the BOM Corporate Settings block of the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen), use this screen to print either manufacturing bills of materials (MBOMs) or EBOMs

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.

Description

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.

Selection Ranges

Use the fields in this group box to select the range of component parts to include in the report.

Component Part/Rev

Use the Option drop-down list to select the range of component parts you want to include on this report. All components whose component type is D (Deleted) display as DELETED on the report. The available options are:

Use the Start field to enter, or use to select, the starting component part ID for this range, as applicable. Use the adjacent unlabeled field to enter, or use to select, the revision of the component.

Use the End field to enter, or use to select, the ending component part ID for this range, as applicable. Use the adjacent unlabeled field to enter, or use to select, the revision of this component.

If you select Manufacturing from the BOM Type drop-down list, you can only enter or select standard parts in the Start and End fields. However, if you select Engineering from the BOM Type drop-down list, you can use the Part Lookup Type drop-down list to select whether to enter or lookup standard or provisional parts in the Start and End fields.

Part Lookup Type

Use this drop-down list to specify whether to lookup Standard or Provisional parts in the Start and End fields. This field is automatically set to Standard when you select Manufacturing from the BOM Type drop-down list.

Options

Use this group box to customize the report to print either MBOMs or EBOMs based on the selected component parts.

BOM Type

Use this drop-down list to select which bills of material (BOM) type you want to include on this report. The available options are:

BOM Levels

Use this drop-down list to whether to include the first-level where-used assemblies of the component, the entire indented where-used list through all the levels, or an indented where-used list through a specified number of levels on this report. The available options are:

Configuration Identifiers

Use this group box to customize the report to print BOMs for all configurations, for a specific configuration, or for a specific date.

Show All

Select this check box to include all the assemblies for all configurations or effectivities for the component part. This option is available only if you select Single Level from the BOM Levels drop-down list.

Clear this check box to base this report on the As of Date and Configuration fields.

As of Date

Use this field to enter, or use to select, the BOM as-of component effective date. The report includes only those lines with a starting effective date that is earlier than, or the same as, the as-of date and an ending effective date (if not blank) later than the as-of date. This field is disabled if you select the Show All check box.

Configuration

Use this field to enter, or use to select, the BOM configuration ID for the selected component. This field is available if you select the Use Configuration IDs check box in the BOM Corporate Settings block of the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen and the range selected in the Component Part/Rev drop-down list is One.

If you enter a configuration ID, the data on this report depends on whether that configuration ID appears on a given component line. If a line exists with the entered configuration ID, that line will print. If no line exists with the entered configuration ID, but there is a line without a configuration ID, the line without a configuration ID will print. If a line cannot be found that contains either the entered configuration ID or an empty configuration ID field, no line will print.
