Edits

These processing options control how the system runs the bill-of-material explosion from the Volume Design and Product Synchronization program (P30L201) using the BF30L153 business function.

As of Date

Specify the date that you want the system to use when selecting bills of material for effectivity checking. If you leave this processing option blank, the system does not check effectivity dates.

Type Bill of Material

Specify the bill-of-material type that the system uses when searching for bills of material. Do not change the default value. Values are:

M: Standard manufacturing bill.

RWK: Rework bill.

SPR: Spare parts bill.

The system stores these values in the Bill Type UDC table (40/TB).

The system does not select bills of material based on revision level. The EMD Explosion function does not explode demand for fixed quantity components if the dependent demand for these components is greater than 0.

Use Batch Bills

Specify whether the system uses batch bills. If you leave this processing option blank or set it to 1, the system uses the bill of material with the highest batch quantity to build product for the aggregate demand. For any remaining demand, you use the zero-batch bill.

If you set this processing option to 0, the system uses the zero batch bill quantity.
