Text in service BOM

If a service item is created for a produced item after sales processing, and a service BOM is created, the text is transferred from:

  • a Document BOM, Construction Order, Production BOM, or another Service BOM if the Copy BOM action is run.
  • the master BOM if the Request BOM function is run.

If the text was set up with a Print Mgt. Code that includes the Service BOM Line table, then a pop-up window will open with the text when the item is added to the line.

Text added is accessible by a pop-up window, by choosing Line > Line Texts on the Lines FastTab, or by choosing the Yes value in the Line Text exists field on the line.

New text can be added in the Edit Text page as explained above.

Text in service item worksheet

COSMO Text Module functionality is available in the Service Item Worksheet by selecting the line for text and then choosing Line > Line Texts on the Lines FastTab.

This can be used to enter additional information during the service (e.g., why a part was replaced). This text will be transferred to the Service BOM so that other users know the reason of the exchange/addition. It improves the traceability of the service process.
