pt_mstr, bom_mstr

From my understanding, if I have a part in pt_mstr but not in bom_mstr that is ok. But if the part is in bom_mstr but not in pt_mstr then we have a problem.. Can anybody verify this to see if this is correct.
 
Hi
pt_mstr is the master table where we have to store each and every Item..
so If it is in bom_mstr before that,the item must be reside in pt_mstr ..

Hi,

Pt_mstr is the item master.
bom_mstr is the bill of material master.

You can define a bom_parrent, that does not exist in pt_mstr. I think you normally would do that, if you want to create a standard bom used for several different items.

you will define that via ps_mstr - Product structure master.

Hello Ole,
I was under the impression that only if the items was in the pt_mstr then it can be used in the BOM. What you mentioned was different. Can you please explain how this works.. I am not clear..

Thank you Ole
 
Hi Nate,

First goto Bom Master Maintenance (13.1 if i remember correct).

Here you will define your new bom_parrent.

Now you can use it in Product Structure Maintenance (13.5 if I remember correct).

Here you can create a standard Product structure related to this new Bom_parrent. Normally you would create on related directly to an Item.

The new Product Structure can be assigned to an item, via the field pt_bom_code in the planning part of Item Maintenance.

The new product structure, will then be used as the default, when creating a Workorder for this item.

Regards Ole
 
pt_mstr = part master table.bom_mstr = bill of measure master table.A part has to exist on the pt_mstr to be able to bill it - be on the bom_mstr table. So how can you construct and bill from bom_mstr if the part is not on the pt_mstr table??Hope this makes sence 2 U and U can work with it.
 
Here is the help from qad on that procedure, I think that explains it.
Nb. It is called Bill of Materials master!

Regards Ole

Product structure relationships include a parent and component items. BOM/Formula identifies the "Parent," an item number usually predefined in Item Master Maintenance.
When you enter a product structure in Product Structure Maintenance, the system automatically records the parent item number as a BOM/Formula. Use Product Structure Code Maint to set up a BOM/Formula which is not an item number, specifically:
Site-Specific Structures: To make the same item at multiple sites using slightly different components at each site, create a BOM/Formula for each site (perhaps item number followed by site code). Attach components to each BOM/Formula using Product Structure Maintenance, then assign the normal BOM/Formula to each item-site using Item-Site Planning Maintenance. This designates the structure for planning and manufacturing at that site.
Common Structures: If several structures use exactly the same components with different routings, set up a BOM/Formula and attach the structure to it. Use Item Planning Maintenance to assign that BOM/Formula to each of the items as the default structure.
Alternate Structures: If one item has several structures, each can have a different BOM/Formula, each linked to the item using Alternate Structure Maintenance; or linked to a specific item and routing using Alternate Routing Maintenance.
Co-Product/By-Product Structures: The BOM/Formula code or base process for a Co-Product/By-Product structure is actually a component of the co-products and by-products that it produces. The unit of measure (UM) for the BOM/Formula when it is a base process item should be the same as the UM in the item master for the base process.
Each BOM/Formula has an associated Unit of Measure. This is not used. All structures use the item unit of measure. To assign the same BOM/Formula to multiple items, they must have the same unit of measure.
See Product Structure Code Maint, Item Planning Maintenance, Item-Site Planning Maintenance, bmasmt.p, and Alternate Routing Maintenance.
