Re: Converting the BOM into BPCS

Hello,
BPCS v. 6.04
I don't think INSEQ is necessary, we have all INSEQ=0.
Important is ILEVL - generally - parent item -> 0, child -> 1, child of a child 
-> 2 and so on.
I think, the exact number is not so much important (i.e. you can "miss" some 
level-numbers in BOM without troubles). There should be a higher number with a 
part, which is "deeper" in BOM.

  Subject: [BPCS-L] Converting the BOM into BPCS 


  Hello all,

  We are planning conversions from 2 other ERP packages (Syspro and 
  AdHoc-Revolution (italian)) into our BPCS Database.

  One of the conversion is the BOM (MBM). 
  The item master (IIM)  contains a field with the lowest level of the item 
  in a BOM(INSEQ-Last BOM) .
  This field is important for MRP/MPS runs.

  Does anyone of you have experience with a BOM Conversion and how I can 
  reset the specific field in the item master.

  Other files we are going to convert:
  - item master
  - vendor master
  - customer master
  - item-x-reference
  - costing
  - sales prices
  - stock levels
  - open receivables
  - open payables

  Kind regards,

  Peter Heeren
