Production BOM options and documents are parts of a production order that are not always needed. E.g. when for specific markets, extra information material or language specific manuals must be added.

First a so-called maximum-BOM is created.

 

Example

Each BOM line can have a BOM option code, e.g. the German manual has a BOM option code DE, the French manual has a BOM option code FR, the Italian manual has a BOM option code IT.

In the BOM option group, it can be specified which BOM option codes apply. E.g. BOM option group Switzerland includes BOM option codes FR, DE and IT. Thus the language specifc manuals for Switzerland are added to the production BOM automatically when the BOM option group is Switzerland.

The BOM option group can be applied manually or automatically based on a filter on the sales line. E.g. if sales line delivery address country is Switzerland, apply BOM option group Switzerland.
