This program allows you to display information about any bill of material finished item.
When you first access the Bill of Materials Inquiry program, you can use the Go To field in the upper portion of the screen to locate specific finished items.
The Go To field is case sensitive. This means that if you enter i100 to lookup an item number when someone entered it as I100, the item record you are looking for will not appear in the browser.
Click Filters if you want to limit the number of records that appear in the inquiry browser. You can also choose Options>Filter Values.
In the Bill of Materials Inquiry program you can access 8 views of information from the center section of the screen.
In the lower portion of the screen, FACTS displays information for the selected finished item.
To search records for the finished item, use the Starts From option in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. This search uses only the first column of the Layout list for the search. To use Starts With, enter one or more characters to match the beginning of the records for the search. Then, click Go or press Enter to begin the search. The Starts From option is available for all inquiry views except General.
For example, if you enter D as the Starts With in the Item Lookup and press Enter, the Lookup list will redisplay records showing the first item that begins with a D. If there are no matches for your selection, a message displays and the Lookup list does not change.
When you are finished reviewing bill of materials finished items, click Exit to return to the Manufacturing Control main menu.
