explain BOM usage and status?..

Answer / rasika deshpande

By means of BOM usage, you can manage separate bills of
material for various internal organizational areas
(engineering/design, production, costing, and so on).We can
define different boms for the different areas of the
company, such as design dept, production, sells and
distribution etc. , depending on their individual
requirement. This can be done by choosing different usages
while creating the bom.

The BOM status specifies whether a bill of material is
active or inactive for different organizational areas.
it can be seen at header level of the bom.

Answer / atul y

The bill of material usage specifies the departments or
functions within a company where the bill of
material is used.

The BOM status controls BOM processing in different
application areas

Example:
BOM X:
BOM with status '1' can be exploded in MRP and released for
a planned order.
BOM Y:
BOM with status '2' cannot be exploded in MRP or released
for a planned order.
