Bills of Materials Panel

Overview

When users save a BOM Mapping Rule to a Transaction, they can view the associated BOM Mapping Rule items in a Bill of Materials tab in configuration. For a better understanding of the Bill of Materials panel, consider the following:

• All BOM items display as Mandatory items.
• The Bill of Materials panel displays all of the columns from the Templates for the Recommended Items page ( Admin > Style and Templates > Page Templates ). Administrators can hide unwanted fields from this page; however, the changes will also affect the Recommended Parts and Mandatory Parts panels.
• The Bill of Materials panel displays the unit price and assumes a root quantity of "1". Administrators can set up a Quantity Mapping Rule for a default quantity that is not "1". An exploded quantity and price still displays, assuming the root model’s quantity is "1".
• A model’s description populates both the Comment and Description columns in the Bill of Materials panel.
• When administrators add a model to a BOM, the model’s label displays in the Bill of Materials panel. For non-base language users, the translations defined for the model display to the user.
• When administrators add a child model to a BOM, its rules do not run. Only the rules present on the model being configured run.
• A model’s price is calculated by its base price. While Price Books do not affect a model’s price, the price of a BOM part uses the Price Books’ price.
