Access BOM Items

About this task

A Bill of Material (BOM) contains BOM formulations that define a list of items and the quantity of each BOM item needed to produce a product. BOM items are defined and associated with BOM formulations in Plant Applications. Using Plant Applications Web Client, you can manage BOM items as follows:

  1. In Route Editor, you can link BOM formulations to a route, and then link BOM items to operations.
  2. In Work Queue and Unit Operations, you can specify the consumption of BOM items for each serial/lot.
  3. In Work Order Manager, you can view the required and consumed quantity of each BOM item for each serial/lot.

Procedure

  1. Access the work order whose BOM items you want to view.
    The page for the work order appears, displaying the Current Status section. The All Serials/Lots section displays a list of serials/lots in the work order, along with the status of each serial/lot.
  2. In the left pane, select the serial/lot for which you want to access the BOM items.
  3. Select BOM.
    A list of BOM items associated with the serial/lot appears. The following table provides information on the columns in the table.
    Note: The list of BOM items appears only if you select a serial/lot in the left pane. If All Serials/Lots is selected, the list of BOM items does not appear.
    Tip: You can search for a BOM item by entering the part number in the Search part here box or by scanning the bar code of the part number.
    ColumnDescription
    ORDERThe order in which the BOM items may be consumed.
    MATERIAL The material number of the BOM item.
    MATERIAL DESC The material description of the BOM item.
    REQ QTY The planned quantity of the BOM items required for the completion of the serial/lot for the operation.
    CONSUMED QTY The actual quantity of the BOM items consumed during the production.
    UOM The unit of measure (UOM) of the BOM item.
    SERIAL/LOT# The serial/lot of the raw material that was consumed.
    LOWER QTY The minimum quantity, measured in the selected engineering units, of the formulation item that must be used in the formulation.
    UPPER QTY The maximum quantity, measured in the selected engineering units, of the formulation item that can be used in the formulation.
    SCRAP FACTOR The Percentage of this formulation item that is expected to be lost during production of the formulation.
    STORAGE UNIT Unit currently storing the selected product.
