We want to maintain a BOM for items that are actually Buy items. We do not want this BOM or item configuration to interfere with Standard Costing when we roll the costing.
As an example, we have a weldment item that has multiple items that are formed and welded together by an outside vendor. Therefore the item is a Buy item and we need to maintain a BOM under the Buy Item Number.
We have found that if we want to have access to the BOM, either as an Engineering BOM or a Manufacturing BOM we must have the item configured in the Item Engineering Data as a Make or Buy. If we change the setting to Buy then the BOM is not accessible.
We believe that if we have the BOM as a Manufacturing BOM and in the Item Engineering as a Make or Buy GP will look to the Manufacturing BOM when it rolls the Standard Cost.
So my question is, if we have an item where we enter a BOM as an Engineering BOM, and we configure the item as a Buy in the Item Resource Planning, and configure the item as a Make or Buy in the Item Engineering Data, will the Standard Cost roll correctly treating the item solely as a Buy item.
I apologize in advance if the wording is not clear but at the moment it is the best I can explain the situation.
