				<ProcedureList><ListItem>Create a new MBC.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>Define MBC actions.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>Define an include/exclude list of E-items.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>Generate E-items by MBC.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>Change the MBC status to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/domains/edm.osta#app.for.engg" role="enum">Approved for Engineering</GUIRef>. A question is asked whether you want to create the revision for E-Items by MBC manually. Select Yes. The <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/edm/tiedm3122m000" role="session">E-Item by MBC (tiedm3122m000)</GUIRef> appears.

					<ListItem>Go to the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/edm/tiedm3110m000" role="session">MBC (tiedm3110m000)</GUIRef> session. Process the EBOM changes for the MBC.</ListItem>
					<ListItem>Change the MBC status to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/domains/edm.osta#app.for.prod" role="enum">Approved for Production</GUIRef>. Questions are asked whether to approve the revisions for production, create a relation for E-items by MBC, and generate EBOM copy data. Select Yes for all questions.</ListItem>
