Add items to a detailed bill of material

A detailed bill of material belongs to a job order. For the part to manufacture, the detailed bill of material lists the component parts and assemblies and their costs. You can add parts and assemblies to a detailed bill of material as necessary.

To add items to a detailed bill of material

1. Open the Job Orders (JO) page.

   • Select Production Management > Production Transactions > Shop Floor > Job Orders.

   Or

   • Search for JO or Job Orders in the Navigation box and then select Job Orders.

     The Job Orders (JO) page appears.

2. On the Toolbar, click Browse.

   The Browse For Job Orders window appears.

3. Select a row, and click Select. Or, double-click the job order.

   Click Cancel to exit from the Browse For Job Orders window.

4. On the Toolbar, click More Actions.

5. Select More Actions > Actions > BOM Detail.

   The Job Order Detailed BOM page appears.

6. On the grid toolbar, click New.

   Or click Copy to base an item on the selected item.

7. Specify the part:

   1. In the Component Facility list, select the component facility.

   2. Click the Component Lookup Reference.

      The Lookup For Component window appears.

   3. Select the row, and click Select. Or, double-click the part number and revision to use.

      Click Cancel to exit from the Lookup For Component window.

   4. To specify an item number, type it in the Item No field.

8. Specify quantities:

   1. In the Unit Quantity field, type the quantity required to make one parent part.

      Or

      Click the icon at the end of the Unit Quantity field to display the Calculator. Enter the required value.

      If you will use the Unit Quantity field to adjust for yielddifferences, you must check the “Adjust unit JODBOM quantities based on operation quantities” on the Material/Costing tab of the Production (CSPROD) page.

      If you anticipate a yield difference for this item based on historical data, work center efficiency, or some other analysis, enter the percent gain or loss anticipated in the Unity Quantity field as a decimal. For instance, if one of an item is required for each parent part and you anticipate a yield loss of 10% for the item in operation 10 of a job order to make 100 of the parent part, you would type 1.10 in the Unit Qty box. Your adjusted extended quantity will recalculate to 110, compensating for the 10% yield loss. This recalculated value is used system-wide, including material requirements planning and the purchasing queue.

   2. If the unit of measure is not correct, in the U/M list, select the correct unit of measure.

   3. If you do not want to multiply the component quantity by the job quantity, clear the Extend check box.

   You may want to do this if you need less of the item to complete the operation. For instance, if the item is a tooling and the job quantity is 10, you may only want to use one tooling for the job instead of 10.

9. Specify other details:

   1. If the part is a tool that you use up during production and you want to record its cost separately from materials costs, select the Tooling check box.

   2. To associate an operation number with this part, click the Used In Operation Lookup Reference.

      The Lookup For Used In Operation window appears.

   3. Select a row that contains the required operation, and click Select. Or double-click the row that contains the required operation.

      Click Cancel to exit from this screen.

      The operation number helps you determine when you need materials and specifies in the routing exactly when each material is needed. For more information on how operation numbers work with bills of material, see “Working with bills of material” in the Related Information.

   4. Type any notes in the Memo field.

   5. In the Source list, select any one from the list.

   6. In the Unit Material field, type the cost per unit.

      Or click the icon at the end of the Unit Material field to display the Calculator. Enter the required value.

10. On the Toolbar, click Save.
