			 engineering is a fast but approximate material requirements calculation method.
			 The number of assembly parts for each engineering module is calculated using
			 demand from real sales orders and hypothetical 'pseudo orders'. An engineering
			 module is a group of standard parts, without routings, assembly lines, options,
			 and so on, for a particular system, such as the electrical system or
			 transmission. An engineering module is not actually manufactured and is for
			 design and planning purposes only.</Paragraph>

			 line, including <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#000095" role="glossary">option combinations</Link>, product structures, and so on.</Paragraph>
