Set up the Part Exclusion List

Article • 4/27/2026 • 2 min read

When a part is excluded, it cannot be seen in the material availability list and the material status message is not displayed. We have the option to select which parts you do not want to display the material status message. However, you can check this option if you want the excluded parts to show up on the BOM tab in the JO Detail (SFMJODTL) window.

The job order whose parent part is in the exclusion list displays.

Use the Part Exclusion tab on the Setup page to add or delete parts to or from the exclusion list.
