You can make changes or add new items to bills of materials (BOMs) that you select.
Change a BOM item
Click Inventory management > Periodic > Bills of materials > Change BOM item.
In the To item number field, select the item that you want to add.
Click Select to select the items that you want to replace in all the BOMs (select Overwrite in the Update lines list), or that you want to append an item to in the BOMs (select Append in the Update lines list).
Click Edit BOM line to see which BOMs will be affected by the changes. Delete the BOMs that you do not want to be affected by the changes.
If you selected Append, set the From item number valid until calendar to specify how long the existing BOM item will be valid. Then, set the To item number valid from calendar to specify the date from which the BOMs with the appended item will be valid.
Click OK to make the changes.
