Bill of Materials Replication in Intercompany Solution

This feature enables you to replicate bill of materials data across branch companies.

To synchronize bill of materials data you must mark a bill of materials as a Global BOM on Bill of Materials window of SAP Business One. 

To open the Bill of Materials window, in the SAP Business One Main Menu, choose Production → Bill of Materials.

The following field has been added to the window and is relevant to the Intercompany Integration Solution. For details of other fields on the Bill of Materials window, refer to the SAP Business One Online Help.   

Field

Description

Global BOM

Select this checkbox to replicate the bill of materials to all branch companies for use in interbranch transactions. Once a bill of materials is set as Global BOM, the selection cannot be reversed (you cannot deselect the checkbox).

Note
When adding or updating global bill of materials which have been assigned a distribution template code, the global BOM are replicated to the branch companies defined in the distribution template.
If no distribution template code is assigned, this indicates that the bill of materials is replicating to all branch companies.
