| # Process MBC (tiedm3250m000) Use this session to run a sequence of sessions, to process a selection of MBCs. Selection range Enter the range of MBCs that you want to process. They must be Approved by Engineering status. You can simulate the results of running this session for each MBC that you select in the MBC (tiedm3110m000) session. Processing Stages Select the check boxes to run the following sessions: Process EBOM Changes (tiedm3205m000). Generate EBOM Copy Data by MBC (tiedm3235m000). Finalize Engineering Data (tiedm3240m000). To view the result of the Generate EBOM Copy Data by MBC (tiedm3235m000) session, use the EBOM Copy Data (tiedm1120m000) session. You must specify a copy method for PBOMs, which is used in the Finalize Engineering Data (tiedm3240m000) session. You can generate EBOM copy data and finalize engineering data only if the new revisions linked to the MBCs have been approved for engineering. Revisions can be approved: Manually, in the Engineering Item Revision (tiedm1100m000) session. Automatically, in the Process EBOM Changes (tiedm3205m000) session.

MBC Number Select the range of MBCs you want to process. Process Engineering BOM Changes If this check box is selected, the Process EBOM Changes (tiedm3205m000) session is started. Approve New Revisions by Production If this check box is selected, the status of new revisions is automatically set to Approved by Production after their EBOMs have been generated. If this check box is cleared, you must approve revisions using the Engineering Item Revision (tiedm1100m000) session. Generate EBOM Copy Data If this check box is selected, the Generate EBOM Copy Data by MBC (tiedm3235m000) session is carried out. Finalize Engineering Data If this check box is selected, the Finalize Engineering Data (tiedm3240m000) session is carried out. Approve New Revisions by Engineering If this check box is selected, new revisions are automatically given the status Approved by Engineering when EBOMs are generated. If this check box is cleared, new revisions are not approved automatically. You must do this by using the Engineering Item Revision (tiedm1100m000) session. Overwrite Existing EBOM Copy Data If this check box is selected, existing copy data of EBOMs is overwritten when the current session runs the Generate EBOM Copy Data by MBC (tiedm3235m000) session. Production BOM Update Method Select the method by which you want to copy data from the engineering BOM (EBOM) to the production BOM when the current session runs the Finalize Engineering Data (tiedm3240m000) session. If the PBOM History check box in the Engineering Data Management Parameters (tiedm0100m000) session is cleared, the production BOM lines are overwritten by the copied data. If that check box is selected, the copied data is written to new sequence numbers. Possible values Related topics Engineering BOMs Finalizing engineering data Copy Document Links If this check box is selected, all attached documents are also copied during the copy process. For example, if you have an EBOM structure of A-B-C and you perform multilevel finalizing, when you finalize A, the attached documents of B and C are also finalized. |
