Configure the engineering BOM generation
Set up workflows to generate and update an aligned engineering BOM
By default, Generate Part EBOM, Generate Product EBOM, and Update Engineering BOM workflows are set up to generate and to update an aligned BOM. These workflows use the following action handlers:
| Handler | Description |
|---|---|
| PMA0_generate_part_ebom_handler | Generates an Assembly BOM from a design structure. |
| PMA0_generate_product_ebom_handler | Generates a Usage BOM from a design structure. |
| PMA0_update_ebom_handler | Updates the engineering BOM (Usage BOM or Assembly BOM) aligned to a design structure with the design changes. |
Based on your business requirements, you can use these default workflows to set up your own workflows.
In the above handlers, you can use the preference TC_config_rule_name for stating the revision rule used for source structure configuration.
If you update the source structure in an active change notice having a date or unit effectivity set, then the same is set on the target structure. For the target structure, revision rule has a non-configurable value set to Working; Any Status.
