BOM Structure in Redlined BOM
Can we create a BOM Structure in the Redlined BOM? I mean in the Parent-child way… I am not able to create the children in the Redlined BOM. Please suggest.
Thanks!
HI Nagma,
You can redline an Affected Item of a change order actually.
This means that you can modify the BOM Structure (using redlining) of the affected item but not of its children. To do that you have to add its chidlren as well in the same change order and release all together.
If you mean that this has to be done via SDK, it is the same. The Redlined BOM cannot be Redlined in turn.
Hi Antonio,
Thanks for the response. Yes, I am doing through SDK, and I need to add the BOM structure directly in Redlined BOM which is blank initially, I mean in the first release there is no BOM in the Part number. During the next Pending change, user wants the BOM to be populated automatically as per an excel sheet.
So, I am trying to populate the same structure through SDK.
Hi Nagma,
You can do that through SDK. All you need to do is to get the table “TABLE_REDLINEBOM” from the Affected Item. You can do all the updates needed to the BOM structure in this table.
Hi Nagma,
Redline feature is only for one level. To be able to create the complete structure, you have to include the level 2,3… items in the Affected Items tab and then redline it one by one. For Example, First add the parent item to the Change Affected Item Table. Then redline it and add level 1 item in the redline BOM. After this add the level 1 item in the Change Affected Item Table. Now redline the level 1 Item and add all the level 2 items in the BOM. And so on till the last level.
Once the change is released the complete structure will be created.
