Multi level bills

There are costing and job impacts as to which one you choose. The
general idea is for "pull as assembly" is the sub-assembly is made on
the same job as the parent assembly. For "pull as material", it's
assumed that you have the sub-assembly made on a separate job and
sitting on the shelf ready to use.

For costing if it's not pull as assembly, it will pull as material in
the job. This will put 100% of the cost (Labor/Burden/Material/Sub
Cont/Material Burden) into the Material Cost WIP account rather than
full breakdown into separate accounts. I.e. you lose visibility of
the labor in your sub-assemblies at the parent level. Depending on
your process, this may or may not be a problem.

I have not been able to pull up a multi-level bill anywhere in Vantage. I have tried BOM listing / multi level pegging--I select the indented bill option, but only the single level is displayed. Are we missing something in our part set-up that is creating this problem?  Also our MRP is not exploding down to the 2nd & 3rd levels. Any suggestions from anyone?

Are you checking the pull or view assembly boxes? That is how you will
"see" the multi-levels!

I have a question along the same lines. If I just check view as assembly and NOT pull as assembly, does it affect anything other then what is displayed in reports? Is there any downside to doing this?

Thank you, that may be the problem. We are still on the test system & the parts that we are testing did not have the view as assembly boxes checked.. We'll check it out.

To answer Steve's question, so you know as well -

When you view as assembly, you are only "seeing" the subassemblies.
When you pull as assembly, your costs flow to the top level. Viewing
doesn't let you "see" the costs!

Also if you are clocking in and out of jobs, you wouldn't be able to
cost your subassemblies if you only view as assembly. b Play around with
a simple BOM with one sub and you will see what I am talking about.

I'm sure someone out there is verify this or add more to it!
