MANAGE MANUFACTURING BILLS OF MATERIAL

Use this screen to set up and maintain the hierarchical relationship of parts in a production environment. You can use it to develop manufacturing bills of material (MBOMs) one level at a time by specifying the parent part and listing first-level components and related data to create multi-level MBOMs. One part (or part/revision, if multiple revenues are allowed) can have multiple components on its MBOM. You can also include a part as a component on one or more MBOMs, and a parent on one MBOM can be a component on others.

You can copy engineering bills of materials (EBOMs) into MBOMs using the Copy Bills of Material screen in order to plan and control material operations. Conversely, you can copy an existing MBOM to an EBOM to make revisions in the design/engineering stage before releasing it back to manufacturing. This procedure is accessible only if you selected the Use Engineering Bills of Material check box in the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen.

The settings and default values in the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen affect how you can maintain and release MBOMs in this screen.

• If you did not select the Use Separate MBOM Release Function check box in the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen, you can maintain and release existing MBOMs in this screen (for example, adding new component lines and changing the setting in the Component Released check box) and in the Release Manufacturing Bills of Material screen.

• If you selected the Use Separate MBOM Release Function check box, you must use the Release Manufacturing Bills of Material screen to release existing unreleased MBOM assemblies and component line items. You can still add new component lines to unreleased MBOMs in this screen. However, they can be released only in the Release Manufacturing Bills of Material  screen. You can also release multiple MBOMs in the Release Multiple Manufacturing Bills of Material screen.

If you selected the Release Mfg BOMs check box in the Configure Engineering Change Notice Settings screen in Costpoint Engineering Change Notices, you can release MBOMs only in the Manage Engineering Change Notices screen. If you selected the Modify Released Mfg BOMs check box, you can modify released MBOMs only in the Manage Engineering Change Notices screen.

Upon entering this screen, you are prompted to select MBOMs you want to view and edit. Use the Manufacturing BOM dialog box to search Costpoint for specific MBOMs by assembly part, revision, description, or BOM exist flag. If you search for a specific MBOM, this field displays in form view. If you use a wildcard to search for multiply MBOMs, this screen displays in table view. You can switch between the form and table view by clicking or .

Part Security

This field is visible only if the Use Part Data Security Controls check box is selected on the Configure Product Definition Settings screen, which indicates that the assembly part is subject to data security restrictions, as defined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR).

If enabled, this field displays one of the following values to indicate whether the part you are accessing is subject to part data security restrictions and whether you have the necessary authorization to access information for that part:

• Unrestricted — The part is not subject to data security restrictions.

• Restricted — The part is subject to data security restrictions and that you are authorized to access detailed part information.

• ***UNAUTHORIZED***  — The part is subject to data security restrictions and you are not authorized to access or view part information. This value is displayed in red background color.

If you are unauthorized to access assembly parts or revisions that are subject to data security restrictions, then you will not be able to create or edit BOMs that contain restricted assembly parts or revisions.
