Title: RE: Alternate Item in Bill of Material????

We show it on the bill of material with the quantity required as zero.

Might sound crazy, but is there anyway to have an alternate item for a component
in a bill of material. I know we can change the component when the shop order
is created, but we would like to have it as part of the BOM so that MRP/MPS will
not instruct us to order the component when the alternate item is available.

TIA
