Attention: You cannot order a planning bill of material item, but you can order the components under it. If you want to ensure that you forecast the components, as well as the planning item itself, you can explode the planning item during a forecast merge.
When you explode a forecast for a model, you can track which forecasted end model generated the forecast for the lower level components. This allows you to trace the forecasted demand for a component if it is defined in more than one model. You can also trace exploded forecasts to planning bills.
You can also explode a product-family forecast to the member items, and see which product family generated the forecast for all the items at lower levels.
