MBOM CHANGE-TO PART ASSEMBLIES

This subtask is enabled if the Action Code is "A - Add," "R - Replace," or "V - New Rev" and the Change-To Part is populated for the selected line in the main screen. Use this subtask to view and update the MBOM assemblies that use the original part. If there are MBOMs that use this component in Costpoint Bills of Material, the screen will default the existing assembly parts without the Action Code.

ECN

This field displays the ECN ID from the main screen. The unlabeled field to the right displays the ECN description from the main screen.

Component

Table Window

If the Action Code for the selected line in the main screen is "A - Add" or "R - Replace," and the Original Part is a component in an MBOM assembly, the Change-To Part will display in the Component Part field, but those assemblies in which the Original Part is a component will display in the table window without an Action Code. If the Replace in All BOMs column is "Y" for the selected line in the main screen and you open this subtask, the system will display the following message:

"Warning: Changes made in this screen may overwrite changes created by the Replace in BOM function."

This warning means that if you make changes in this subtask, only those changes will be saved for the affected assembly, even if the Replace in All BOMs column is "Y" (Yes) for the selected line in the main screen. However, if you do not add a line or make changes to an existing line in this subtask, the Change-To Part will replace the Original Part in all MBOMs where the Original Part exists as a component. In this case, all MBOM assemblies and configurations from the original part/revision in the main screen will be copied based on the starting and ending effective dates once you have run the Implement ECN Changes application.

Action Code

Select from the drop-down box the action this ECN will perform, either "A - Add," "C - Change," or "D - Delete." This field is optional. The default is "A - Add" for newly added lines or lines that are copied from another assembly.

Line

Enter up to four digits of the line number to identify the specific MBOM component line in this required field.

Find

Enter up to four alphanumeric characters for the drawing find number of this MBOM component line in this required field. Upon populating the Line field for a new line, this field will default with zeroes, but can be changed. For example, if you enter "3" in the Line field, the Find field will default to "0003."

Assembly Part

Enter, or use Lookup to select, the ID of the assembly part that uses the component part displayed in the header. This required field of up to 30 alphanumeric characters must be a valid part ID from the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition. If the Original Part for the selected line in the main screen is a component in an MBOM assembly, this field displays the assembly part. You can add new assembly parts.

Enter the component type code: "B" (Buy With Component), "S" (Standard), "P" (Phantom), "R" (Reference), "T" (Tool), or "D" (Deleted). This field is required. The default is the component part type from the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition.

Qty Type

Enter the quantity type code: "A" (Per Assembly), "R" (As Required), or "O" (Per Order). This field is required. This field is for the component part. If you have selected the As Required checkbox in the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition for the component part, or the Comp Type is "R" (Reference), the default for this field is "R." If the Comp Type is "T" (Tool), the default for this field is "O." Otherwise, the default is "A."

Quantity

Enter up to 14 digits, including two digits after the decimal point, for the component part quantity required in the MBOM. This field is required. The default is "1." If the Qty Type is "R," the default is zero. If you enter a number other than zero, the system will display an error message.

Make/Buy

Enter "M" (Make) if the component is to be manufactured or "B" (Buy) if it is to be purchased. This field is required. The default is the component part's make/buy designation from the Basic Part Data screen in Costpoint Product Definition.

Configuration

Enter, or use Lookup to select, the ID of the configuration in which this component will be used when planning this MBOM. This field is optional. If you make an entry, it must be a valid BOM Configuration ID from the Configuration Identifiers screen in Costpoint Bills of Material. This field will be hidden if you did not select the Use Configuration IDs checkbox in the BOM Corporate Settings subtask of the BOM Settings screen in Costpoint Bills of Material.

Configuration Description

This field displays the configuration description from the Configuration Identifiers screen in Costpoint Bills of Material. This field will be hidden if you did not select the Use Configuration IDs checkbox in the BOM Corporate Settings subtask of the BOM Settings screen in Costpoint Bills of Material.

Effective Starting Date

Enter the date on which this component will become effective in this MBOM. This field is required and can be changed. This field defaults with the Suggested Effective Date in the ECN Detail subtask, or the Effective Date (from the selected line in the main screen) if the Suggested Effective Date is null. This field defaults with the current system date if both the Suggested Effective Date and Effective Date are null.

Effective Ending Date

Enter the date on which this component will cease being effective in this MBOM. This field is optional. This field defaults with the MBOM component's Effective Ending Date. If this date is earlier than the effective starting date, the system will display an error message. If this date is earlier than the current date but later than the effective starting date, a warning message will display.

Component Released

Enter "Y" (Yes) to release this component in this MBOM, or "N" (No) to keep it unreleased. This is a required field. The default value is determined by the radio button selected in the MBOM Release Control - Default Component Release Status in Bill group box in the BOM Settings screen in Costpoint Bills of Material.
