BOM problem

97 Views

Hi,

My client has raw materials in terms of rods say 100m length and 2mm dia.Say material number RM1 for the entire rod.

Now when they cut it say as per requirement they will cut 1.5 m out of it and still want to maintain it with same raw material number 'RM1' to the cut out part.. Left over is 98.5m.

Next they will cut 2 m out of it and still want to maintain same material number of the cut out part. Now my problem is what part number to give to the cut out part ( as it cant be same as parent parent part number)and how to create the bill of material??.

Only if I will be able to create the BOM for it say cut out part is RM1 again then only I can use it in some other assembly, I can use it in its higher level BOM!! But i am not able to think how to create this BOM first.

Please suggest.

Regards,

Mohammad Arif.
