Field Description
Assembly Part

Use this field to enter, or use to select, the assembly part for which this MBOM is being maintained.

Rev

This field displays this assembly part's revision.

Description

This field displays this assembly part's description.

Part Security

This field is visible only if the Use Part Data Security Controls check box is selected on the Configure Product Definition Settings screen, which indicates that the assembly part is subject to data security restrictions, as defined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR).

If enabled, this field displays one of the following values to indicate whether the part you are accessing is subject to part data security restrictions and whether you have the necessary authorization to access information for that part:

  • Unrestricted: The part is not subject to data security restrictions.
  • Restricted: The part is subject to data security restrictions and that you are authorized to access detailed part information.
  • ***UNAUTHORIZED***: The part is subject to data security restrictions and you are not authorized to access or view part information. This value is displayed in red background color.
Note:

If you are unauthorized to access assembly parts or revisions that are subject to data security restrictions, then you will not be able to create or edit BOMs that contain restricted assembly parts or revisions.

Note: The features in this release relating to Part Data Security are intended to assist your company in achieving ITAR compliance. However, it is each company’s responsibility to confirm that it is meeting its obligations with respect to ITAR or other applicable requirements. Deltek does not warrant that use of this functionality will result in compliance.
MBOM Status

Use this drop-down list to select the release status of the MBOM for the assembly part. The available options are:

  • Released
  • Partially Released
  • Unreleased

You must first set the Part Status field to Released, Obsolete, or Phase-out before you can set this field to Released.

If you set this field to Released and non-subassembly, unreleased component parts exist (the Component MBOM Status and Comp Released field are both N in the Components subtask) whose Part Status is Released, Obsolete, or Phase-out, Costpoint displays a message asking whether you would like to release these components. Select OK to do so, and the components will be released only when the record is saved (the Comp Released column will be set to Y).

If you change this field to Released and try to save the record while the Component BOM Status is Unreleased, Costpoint displays a warning indicating that the MBOM cannot be released (along with a list of the components' part/revision numbers) because the component part is an unreleased subassembly. You must change the Component MBOM Status to Released in the Manage Manufacturing Bills of Material or Release Manufacturing Bills of Material screen.

Note: You must release lower-level assemblies before the higher-level assemblies on a given multi-level MBOM.
Part Status

Use this drop-down list to select the release status of this assembly part. The available options are:

  • Pre-Release
  • Released
  • Phase-Out
  • Estimating
  • Obsolete

The value in this field is linked to the Part Status Type field in the Manage Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition and to the Part Status fields in the Manage Manufacturing Bills of Material and Release Manufacturing Bills of Material screens.

The assembly part's status must be Obsolete, Released, or Phase-Out before you can set the MBOM Status field to Released.

Part Type

This field displays this assembly part's type. The various types are:

  • Buy with Components
  • Standard
  • Phantom
  • Reference
  • Tool
 U/M

This field displays the inventory unit of measure for this assembly part.

MBOM Last Change User ID

This field displays the user ID of the individual who made the most recent modification to this assembly part.

MBOM Change Code

This system-maintained field displays the code representing the method used for the most recent modification to the MBOM. This field displays one of the following codes:

  • Manual (M): This indicates that a user-defined modification has occurred for the MBOM record on either the Manage Manufacturing Bills of Material or Release Manufacturing Bills of Material screen.
  • ECN-Engineering Change Notice (E): This indicates that a modification has occurred for the MBOM record as it relates to Costpoint Engineering Change Notices.
  • Clone MBOM (C): This indicates that the MBOM was copied from another existing MBOM using the clone function.
  • Perform Mass Component Change (S): This indicates that a mass component modification has occurred for this MBOM record on the Apply Mass Component Changes to Bills of Material screen.
  • Provisional Part Conversion (V): This indicates that a provisional part has been converted to a standard part using the Convert Provisional Parts to Standard Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition.
  • Copy from EBOM (G): This indicates that the MBOM is copied from an engineering bill of material (EBOM) using the Copy Bills of Material screen.
  • Copy from PBOM (H): This indicates that the MBOM is copied from a proposal bill of material (PBOM) using the Copy Bills of Material screen.
  • Maintain Part–Create New Part (N): This indicates that a new part has been created.
  • BOM Preprocessor (P): This indicates that modifications have occurred using the preprocessor.
MBOM Entry User ID

This field displays the user ID of the individual who first entered the assembly into the system.

EBOM Release Status

If the selected part exists as an EBOM assembly part, this field displays if that EBOM is Released or Unreleased. If this assembly part is not an EBOM part, this field displays Not applicable.

EBOM Release Date/Time

If the EBOM Release Status field displays Released, this field displays the date and time on which the EBOM was released. If the EBOM Release Status field displays Not applicable or Unreleased, this field is left blank.

EBOM Last Changed Date/Time

If the EBOM Release Status field is populated, this field displays the latest date and time on which a modification occurred to the EBOM. If the EBOM Release Status field is Not applicable, this field is left blank.
