Functionality Reflected in PeopleSoft Manufacturing and PeopleSoft Engineering

The supplier-related BOM inquiry and engineering change functionality is reflected in PeopleSoft Manufacturing and PeopleSoft Engineering. Following is a list describing how to use the pages in each application:

  • Use the BOM Access by Supplier page in PeopleSoft Manufacturing to define privileges for viewing ECO and BOM data and, in the case of ECRs, to add information.

  • Send email to suppliers from these pages: ECO Maintenance - Header, ECR Maintenance - Header, Approve ECO, and Engineering BOM Maintenance - Header: Supplier Access List in PeopleSoft Engineering, and BOM Maintenance - Header: Supplier Access List in PeopleSoft Manufacturing.

    Note:

    Each email message contains two URLs.

  • Access the supplier access list from these pages to display a list of suppliers who have access to a specific item: EBOM Maintenance Header, ECR Header - Header, and ECO Header - Header in PeopleSoft Engineering, and BOM Maintenance Header in PeopleSoft Manufacturing.

  • On both the PeopleSoft Engineering ECO Header - Header and ECR Header - Header pages, use the Not Accessible by Suppliers field to block access to a specific ECO or ECR.

    Therefore, even if suppliers have been granted access on the BOM Access by Supplier page in PeopleSoft Manufacturing, you can deny them access to a specific ECO.
