Attaching Consumed Components to a Sequence-of-Events Task

Access the Assign Components Consumed form.

Assign Component

Select a component from the bill of material and click to associate the component with the sequence of events task.

Component Item Number

Identifies the component from the bill of material for the product. This component can occur only once for a sequence-of-events task. It can occur more than once if it has different prep codes. The system enables you to select components only from a bill of material that meets the following conditions:

  • The scenario matches the current user scenario.

  • The parent item matches the product of the sequence of events.

  • The branch/plant matches the sequence-of-events branch/plant.

  • The bill of material type is M.

  • The batch quantity equals 0.

  • The sequence number of the substitute item equals 0.

  • No co-product or by-product or immediate product exists.

  • The component effective date on the sequence of events is greater than or equal to the component's effective from date.

  • The component effective date on the sequence of events is greater than or equal to the component's effective through date.

Sequence Quantity

Enter the quantity of the component that is consumed by the sequence-of-events task.

SEQ UOM (sequence unit of measure)

Displays the unit of measure of the sequence quantity.

Val Bom (validate bill of material)

Indicate whether the system validates that the sequence quantity exists in the bill of material.

SOE Qty (sequence of events quantity)

Displays the total quantity of the component that is consumed across all sequences of events for the product number.

SOE UOM (sequence of events unit of measure)

Displays the unit of measure for the sequence of events quantity. This is always the primary unit of measure to enable comparison with the bill-of-material quantity that always uses the primary unit of measure. Using the primary unit of measure simplifies the calculation if the component occurs in multiple sequence-of-events tasks.

BOM Qty (bill of material quantity)

Displays the component quantity from the bill of material. If the component exists in multiple places on the bill of material, this value represents the sum of bill-of-material quantities on all records for this component.

BOM UOM (bill of material unit of measure)

Indicates the primary unit of measure. Because the component can exist on the bill of material in different places with different units of measure, you need the primary unit of measure here for conversion.

Apply to Associative Item

Specify whether the system should add or update the component record in all sequences of events that are linked to the same associated item as the current sequence of events.

The system does not check whether the component exists on the bills of material of the other product numbers that use the same associated item. You have to review the information on the Assign Components Consumed form to check whether the component exists on another product's bill of material.
