About Hierarchical Assets for Shipping and Receiving

When you ship or receive a hierarchical asset, changes occur in some fields of the parent component for the asset according to the type of shipping or receiving transaction. These changes occur in the fields of the child subcomponents for the hierarchical asset if the fields are set to cascade the values from the parent to the children. For more information, see Hierarchical Assets.
