MBOM Explosion Parameters

MBOM Levels

Use the options in this group box to choose whether to load the first-level components of the assembly, the entire assembly BOM through all the levels, or an indented assembly BOM through a specified number of levels.

Field Description
Single-Level

Select this option to load only the first-level components of this assembly. This is the system default.

Indented - All Levels

Select this option to load the entire assembly BOM through all the levels.

Indented - Specify Levels

Select this option to load the BOM through a specified number of levels, entered in the adjacent field.

Configuration Identifiers

Use the options in this group box to view the BOM for all configurations, for a specific configuration, or for a specific date.

Field Description
Show All Configurations

Select this check box to see the components for all configurations/effective dates of the parent part. This option is available only if you have selected the Single-Level option in the BOM Levels group box. If this check box is unchecked, the display will be based on the As of Date and the Config ID.

Asof Date

Enter the BOM component effective date. The system will load only those lines with effective starting and ending dates corresponding to the as-of date. If the Effective Ending Date field is blank, all lines will load. This field is disabled if you selected the Show All Configs check box.

Configuration

Enter, or use to select, the BOM configuration ID for selective component viewing. This field is active if you selected the Use Configuration IDs check box in the BOM Corporate Settings block on the Configure Bills of Material Settings screen in Costpoint Bills of Material Controls; it will be disabled if you selected the Show All Configurations check box on this screen.

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