Hi Friend,

When you have more than one component for one material, it is a BOM.

And when you have more than one component for one material and components are variable then that is a super BOM or variant config.

Hi,

BOM (Bill of Materials ) is nothing but, a material which is having a sub components, then its is called as BOM.

Eg. Computer is a material which you created, you can maintain item category as LUMF or ERLA.

and it may have components like KEYBOAD, CPU, MONITOR, MOUSE etc

A super BOM is nothing but a BOM with in a BOM.Meaning a BOM cosisting of components and agin any of those comonents is a BOM of some other components

Eg. IF we consider the same example of Computer as BOM,

its components are like KEYBOARD, CPU, MONITOR, MOUSE etc

if CPU has again some sub components like HARD DISK, FLOPPY DRIVE, CD DRIVE, etc

Then computer will become Super BOM. Now when computer is exploded, components will come, and in that CPU will agin explode and give its components

Hope this is clear

Reward if helpful

Thanks,

hi singh

BOM , is when the main material has sub items and for that sub items again you can have sub items

But in SUPER BOM , each material will have its own characteristics and class and it will have its own variables. super bom is used in variant configuration
