Setup of BOM (Bill of Material) on Oracle EBS R12

Setting up Bill of Material (BOM) in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) R12.3 involves several configuration and master data setup steps. Here's a step-by-step guide to set up BOM in Oracle EBS R12.3:


Step 1: Define BOM Parameters


Navigation: Bills of Material > Setup > Parameters

Define BOM parameters, such as the default BOM type, effective date, and organization.


Step 2: Define BOM Item Attributes


Navigation: Bills of Material > Setup > Attributes

Define BOM item attributes, such as item categories and planning attributes.


Step 3: Define BOM Structures


Navigation: Bills of Material > Setup > BOM Structures

Define BOM structures to represent different types of BOMs (e.g., Engineering, Production).


Step 4: Create Bill of Material (BOM)


Navigation: Bills of Material > Engineer > Bills > Bills

Create the BOM by entering the header data (e.g., assembly item, BOM type) and adding the components along with their quantities and item attributes.


Step 5: Define Component Substitution (if applicable)


Navigation: Bills of Material > Engineer > Bills > Components Substitution

If there are alternate components that can be used in the BOM, define component substitutions.


Step 6: Define Routings (if applicable)


Navigation: Work in Process > Routings > Routings

If you need to define routing steps for production, create routings and associate them with the BOM.


Step 7: Create BOM Reference Designators (if applicable)


Navigation: Bills of Material > Engineer > Bills > Reference Designators

If you need to specify reference designators for components in the BOM, create BOM reference designators.


Step 8: Review and Validate BOM


Navigation: Bills of Material > Engineer > Bills > Bills

Review the BOM details and validate the correctness of the BOM structure and components.


Step 9: Review BOM Reports


Navigation: Bills of Material > Reports

Use various BOM reports to review BOM details, including BOM summary, BOM comparison, and BOM component list.


Step 10: Test BOM Explosion


Navigation: Bills of Material > Engineer > Bills > Where Used

Test the BOM explosion to verify that the BOM is correctly linked to relevant assemblies and components.
