Item number of material, sub-assembly or phantom item See more details in Edit Bill of Materials.
I-Version
If item version control is active, the default version number or variant is entered here. An alternative variant or version can be selected. Based on this the BoM or routing is determined (if the item is an assembly).
If "manually" is disabled, the designation of the selected item is displayed.
If an I-Version was selected, the designation of the item version is displayed. It is not copied to the BoM; the original designation is used at all times.
If you enable "manually" you can change the designation. It will be saved, then, in the BoM position.
Note: In BoM – list the designation cannot be changed.
Production / Precalculation
Designation of used material / Assembly, changeable.
If active, the drawing number and designation can be entered manually. If not, it is taken from master data of the selected I-version.
You can define a default item in Configuration wizard to be used for BoM positions without existing items.
If the default item is inserted into a BoM position, the switch "manually" is disabled automatically.
A work order created from an Item, or Precalculation copies this field automatically for the BoM.
If there is not enough stock to pre-assign quantities from this, pre-defined bin location, Beas continues to pre-assign them from further bin locations based on the sorting rules.
Define a "Best Before Date" (WMS) value for the Bill of materials position. IMPORTANT: The selected value can only be applied during the Picking for Production process in WMS.
"Due date and shelf life" (This is the old DEFAULT value in versions prior to Beas 2023.02)
P
"Pick date" (Default when no value is defined)
B
"Best before date of finished product and shelf life"
The field is hidden by default and can only be made visible after manual selection in the Window settings of the function.
Only available in the following BoM browse forms:

fert_ftstlpos_browse.psr
When a Work order is created, the default values defined in the BoM master Data are copied to the Work Order BoM definition.
Those values, then, can be modified for any specific WO to have different values than the standard.
Limitations: Precalculation does not support this field.
In this list you can define which variant (A-Z) of the BoM should be used.
To work with variants A-Z, you must make them visible via right-click > window settings.
Window artikel_stlpos_browse.psr
If a check box is enabled, the BoM is considered if the selected variant is produced.
The BoM is ALWAYS considered if no check box is enabled.
Beas includes proprietary variant management. It is possible to store up to 26 variants for an item. The descriptions of the variants are stored directly with the item.
A variant is a fixed occurrence of the parameters defined in the item.
Define which BoM positions and routing position must be used for this variant (A-Z).
The variants (Variantenmatrix) can be inserted in the BoM or in the routing via window settings.
The following rule applies:
This position will be inserted if no variant – check box is enabled.
If at least one variant is active – check box, the position will only be inserted if the resulting check box has been selected.
To create a customer order using a specific variant, create the customer order, then select the item, and select it via the right-click-menu "variant". In the new window all variants are displayed. Select the variant which you will have for the item in the actual line of the customer order. You can select from existing variants, copy a variant, or generate a new variant by entering parameter values for this item.
Calculation: You can perform a calculation for a line, according to its variant, from a quote or order in SAP Business One. The Precalculation can be called up via right-click-menu "calculation". Parameters not defined in the variant are queried explicitly during the BoM breakdown. A calculation structure modified according to the parameters is created. The result is usually displayed in the calculation window. You can also convert it into a work order.
The resulting variant is transferred automatically to the customer order or quote line. You can then generate a work order from the customer order. The BoM and routing from the work order are then customized accordingly.
If a work order is to be created for a sales order, the variant stored in the sales order is displayed when you switch to the "Production" tab in the bottom left window. If no variant is stored, this can be selected here if variants are stored in the item.
Requirement calculation: If no work order exists for a sales order yet, and it is an order-based item, the variant stored in the sales order is considered for the requirement calculation. In case of an assembly (warehouse-managed item), the BoM and routing positions active by default are used, i.e. you must define which default scenario should be used for requirement calculation. It is generally unreasonable to produce variant items in the warehouse.
All variants are loaded in a Precalculation at all times. In the header of the calculation, the variant to be calculated currently can be selected. All BoM positions and routing positions not belonging to the currently selected variant are grayed out and not evaluated.
It is not possible to change Variant settings in the Precalculation.
In extended warehouse master data a default variant can be created. Different variants of a product can be produced depending on the production warehouse. If a work order is created (manually or via MRP) the respective variant is inserted. (beas9.0-000-000-006).
If Version control is set to "Variants", an item version corresponds to a variant. Use this if a BOM and routing needs to be defined separately for each variant. This can be performed without formulas and scripts.
This list can be called up via BoM administration. If working with a separate BoM per version for this item, the tabs "BoM" / "Routing" are hidden. These can be selected via item version.
It is possible to display quantities of BoM positions in %: Window settings > activate column %
The requirement of single BoM positions is displayed in %. The sum of all quantities equals 100%.
Window artikel_stlpos_browse.psr
Example:
Pos 10 = 3 ml = 60%
Pos 20 = 2 ml = 40%
Calculated as follows:
Single quantity : Sum of all quantities * 100
Important:
Scrap % and fixed surcharges are not considered. If you use one of these factors, the display will not be correct.
For the calculation the consumption unit will be used. All BoM positions must have the same consumption unit, but different the warehouse unit and input unit.
