Infor LN & Baan Tip: Did you know? PBOM – Effective Dates

Did you know? PBOM – Effective Dates

Some customers have noticed that when a PBOM is pushed from Engineering to Production, the effective date of the PBOM component lines does not match the effective date of the revision of the PBOM component.

Here is how it works:

1. The effective date on a PBOM line is the date the item became effective in PBOM. This means that if the parent item is revision controlled, the effective date on the line relates to one of the revision dates of the parent item.
2. The effective date in a PBOM can be changed. This will lead to a disconnect between engineering and PBOM dates.
3. The a PBOM line can have a revision. However, the effective date on the PBOM line is not the effect of the revision of this component.

The system allows you to manipulate and maintain a simulated MPS and MRP. You can copy the simulation from the existing first cut or you can create a totally new schedule. You can also perform a simulation of the rough-cut capacity plan. This allows a quick visual inspection by inquiry or menu of needed work center loads for the proposed MPS. After you choose a suitable MPS and rough-cut capacity, the system allows you to transfer the simulated MPS to the live Master Production Schedule.

The system supports four levels of inventory. You can view summaries of stock at each level through the Material Status Inquiry program or through reports.

 

Below are the four levels:

▪  Item

▪  Item + warehouse

▪  Item + warehouse + location

▪  Item + warehouse + location + lot

 

The lot number level and/or container of inventory can cross multiple warehouses and locations. For example, item + lot or item + lot + container. Locations exist within warehouses. There is no limit on the number of warehouses, locations, or lots that you can assign to an item.
