PATH: Bill of Materials > batch-managed item > right-click > "Bill of Materials: Batch changes".

This function allows to change multiple BoMs simultaneously. First, select the change type and the material number to be replaced in the BoMs. This is done under tab "Substitute". Under "Add", new information are displayed.

By clicking "START", all affected BoM positions are displayed. Mark positions to be replaced/removed and click START again to start the process.

 

NEW: From version 9.3 PL2 this window allows to work with version-controlled items. This means that the values of items with separate Bill of materials can be updated massively. To cover this new functionality a new column is added with version information.

IMPORTANT: if one item has different version and some of its versions are linked to the main definition,  these lines  will be shown once with the main definition (Without any version number).

 

The tabs and the switch on the bottom of the window provide the same function.
