EBOM Chng Assy Subtask

This subtask is enabled if the Action Code is Add, Replace, or New Revision and the Change-To Part is populated for the selected line in the main screen.

Use this subtask to view and update the EBOM assemblies that use the original part. If there are EBOMs that use this component in Costpoint Bills of Material, this subtask will load the existing assembly parts without the action code.

Component

Field Description
Part

This field displays the change-to part ID from the main screen. The part description (from the Manage Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition) displays in the unlabeled field beneath this field.

Rev

This field displays the change-to part revision from the main screen.

Description

This field displays the description of the change-to part.

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 replacement 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 component part 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 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.
Note: The features in this release relating to Part Data Security are intended to assist your company in achieving ITAR compliance. However, it is each company’s responsibility to confirm that it is meeting its obligations with respect to ITAR or other applicable requirements. Deltek does not warrant that use of this functionality will result in compliance.
Part Status

This field displays the change-to part status from the main screen.

UM

This field displays the default inventory unit of measure code for the change-to part from the main screen

Part Lookup Type

From the drop-down list, select the part type that you want to view on the Lookups in the Assembly Part or Revision fields. Valid options are:

  • Standard
  • Provisional
Autoload

Click this button to load the EBOM change-to assembly parts.

Table Window

If the Action Code for the selected line on the main screen is Add or Replace and the Original Part is a component in an EBOM assembly, the Change-To Part displays in the Component Part field, but those assemblies in which the Original Part is a component display in the table window without an Action Code. If the Replace in All BOMs is selected on the main screen line and you select this subtask, the system displays the following message:

Note: Warning: Modifications made on this screen may overwrite modifications created by the Replace in BOM function.

This warning means that if you modify this subtask, only those modifications will be saved for the affected assembly, even if the Replace in All BOMs column is selected on the main screen line. However, if you do not add a line or modify an existing line in this subtask, the Change-To Part will replace the Original Part in all EBOMs where the Original Part exists as a component. In this case, all EBOM 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 run the Implement ECN Changes application.

Field Description
Action Code

From the drop-down list, select the action that this ECN will perform. Valid options are:

  • Add
  • Change
  • Delete

The default is 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 EBOM component line. This field is required.

Find

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

Assembly Part

Enter, or click to select, the assembly part ID that uses the component part displayed in the header. This field must contain a valid part ID from the Manage Parts screen. If the Original Part for the selected line on the main screen is a component in an EBOM assembly, this field displays the assembly part. You can add new assembly parts.

Revision

Enter, or click to select, the assembly part revision that uses this component. This field must contain a valid revision code from the Manage Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition.

Assembly Description

This field displays the assembly part description.

Component Type

From the drop-down list, select the component type code. Valid options are:

  • Buy With Component
  • Standard
  • Phantom
  • Reference
  • Tool
  • Deleted

The default is the component part type from the Manage Parts screen (for standard parts) or the Manage Provisional Parts screen (for provisional parts).

Quantity Type

From the drop-down list, select the quantity type code. Valid options are:

  • Per Assembly
  • As Required
  • Per Order

This Quantity Type field is for the component part. If the component part has the As Required check box selected Manage Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition, or the Component Type is Reference, the default for this field is As Required. If the Component Type is Tool, the default for this field is Per Order. Otherwise, the default is Per Assembly.

Quantity

Enter up to 14 digits in this required field, including two digits after the decimal point, for the component part quantity required in the EBOM. The default is 1. If the Quantity Type is As Required, the default is zero; if you enter a number other than zero, the system displays an error message.

Make/Buy

From the drop-down list, select whether the component is manufacture or purchased. Valid options are:

  • Make: If the component is to be manufactured
  • Buy: If the component it is to be purchased.

The default option in this drop-down list is the component part's make/buy designation on the Manage Parts screen.

Configuration

Enter, or click  to select, the ID of the configuration in which this component will be used when planning this EBOM. This field must contain a valid BOM configuration ID from the Manage Configuration Identifiers screen in Costpoint Bills of Material. This field is hidden if you did not select the Use Configuration IDs check box on the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen in Costpoint Bills of Material.

Configuration Description

This field displays the configuration description from the Manage Configuration Identifiers screen . This field is hidden if you did not select the Use Configuration IDs check box on the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen.

Effective Starting Date

Enter, or click to select, the date on which this component will become effective in this EBOM. This field defaults with the Suggested Effective Date on the Details tab, or the Effective Date (from the selected line in the main screen) if the Suggested Effective Date is blank. This field defaults with the current system date if both the Suggested Effective Date and Effective Date are blank.

Effective Ending Date

Enter, or click to select, the date this component will cease being effective in this EBOM. This field is optional, and defaults with the EBOM component's Effective Ending Date (if the date exists). If this date is earlier than the current date but later than the effective starting date, the system will display a warning message when you tab out of this field.

If this date is earlier than the effective starting date, an error message displays.

Component Released

Select this check box to release this component in this EBOM. The default value is determined by the option selected in the EBOM Release Control - Default Component Release Status in Bill group box on the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen.

Note: In an EBOM, provisional component parts can be released, and therefore the EBOM status can be released. However, you cannot release provisional component parts in an ECN. You must convert the provisional part to a standard part on the Convert Provisional Parts to Standard Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition (and release it in the EBOM or ECN); otherwise, the EBOM can be Unreleased only if provisional parts exist.
