Release Engineering Bills of Material

Use this screen to release engineering bills of material (EBOMs) that have been set up in the Manage Engineering Bills of Material screen.

This screen is accessible only if you selected the Use Engineering Bills of Material check box is selected in the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen. If you selected the Use Separate EBOM Release Function check box, you must use this screen to release existing EBOM assemblies and component line items. However, you can add (not modify or release) new component lines to unreleased EBOMs in the Manage Engineering Bills of Material screen. If you cleared that check box, you can maintain and release an existing EBOM in the Manage Engineering Bills of Material screen. This screen is essentially the same as the Mange Engineering Bills of Material screen.

Note: If you selected the Release Eng BOM check box in the Configure Engineering Change Notice Settings screen in Costpoint Engineering Change Notices, you can release EBOMs only in the Manage Engineering Change Notices screen. If you selected the Modify Released Eng BOM check box, you will be able to make the majority of modifications to released EBOMs only in the Manage Engineering Change Notices screen.

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