Field or Control

Description

Differences

Displays the differences between the two BOMs. Values include:

  • Added: The component has been added to the Target BOM (BOM2).

  • Deleted: The component has been deleted from the Baseline BOM (BOM1).

    The system determines whether a component has been deleted, by comparing the component IDs, operation sequences, and effectivity dates.

  • Chg (change): Indicates that the component exists on both BOMs, but there are differences in the component attributes.

  • Chg BOM1: If you have made a component change to the baseline BOM, the components appear listed.

  • Chg BOM2: If you have made a component change to the target BOM, the components appear listed.

Note: The system lists a change when any information other than the component, operation sequence, or effective date has changed.

Use the Compare BOMs - BOM Selections page (EG_BOM_COMPARE1E) to view the comparison of two manufacturing BOMs.

Compare BOMs - BOM Selections inquiry page

Baseline BOM (BOM1)

Field or Control

Description

Item ID

Select an item for the baseline BOM.

Item Search Button

Click the Item Search button to access the Item Search Criteria page and select a different item.

BOM Code

Select a BOM code for the baseline BOM. You can select any valid BOM code, but regardless of the depth that you select, the system calculates all lower levels based on the primary BOM code.

Eff Date

Enter the effective date for the baseline BOM if you do not want to use all dates and revisions.

All Dates/Revs

Select to compare all effective dates and revisions for the baseline BOM.

Target BOM (BOM2)

Field or Control

Description

Item ID

Select an item for the baseline BOM.

BOM Code

Select a BOM code for the baseline BOM. You can select any valid BOM code, but regardless of the depth that you select, the system calculates all lower levels based on the primary BOM code.

Eff Date

Enter the effective date for the baseline BOM if you do not want to use all dates and revisions.

All Dates/Revs

Select to compare all effective dates and revisions for the baseline BOM.

Use the Compare BOMs - Component Detail: Component Details page (EG_BOM_COMPARE2) to view BOM component differences.

Manufacturing Definitions > BOMs and Revisions > Review BOM Information > Compare BOMs > Component Detail > Component Details

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Compare BOMs - Component Detail - Component Details page: Attributes tab. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Compare BOMs - Component Detail - Component Details page: Attributes tab

The header data appears by default from the Compare BOMs - BOM Selections inquiry page.

Rtg/BOM/PID Tab

This page displays routing, BOM, and production ID differences between the selected BOMs.

Field or Control

Description

Subs Exist

If substitutes exist for a component, this field is selected.

Sub Supply

If the component is supplied by a subcontractor, this field is selected.

Use the Compare BOMs - Component Detail: Substitutes page (EG_BOM_COMPARE_SUB) to view component substitute differences for two selected BOMs.

Navigation:

Manufacturing Definitions > BOMs and Revisions > Review BOM Information > Compare BOMs > Component Detail > Substitutes

Substitute Items Tab

The system displays the substitutes' differences, including substitute item ID, description, and the original component ID.

Attributes Tab

The system displays the substitutes' differences, including substitute item ID, operation sequence, effective date, standard unit of measure, and conversion rate.

Use the Compare BOMs - Assy Header: Outputs page (EG_BOM_COMPARE10) to view the output differences between two selected BOMs.

Navigation:

Manufacturing Definitions > BOMs and Revisions > Review BOM Information > Compare BOMs > Assy Header > Outputs

Dates Tab

This page displays output date differences including information such as output type, output item, operation sequence, and effectivity dates.

Attributes Tab

This page displays attribute differences including information such as output type, output item, quantity per, source code, serial control resource allocation, and cost allocation percentages.
