The date used for effectivity checking. Enter a specific date to display documents (orders, bills of material, routings, as applicable) that are
effective on or after that date. The current system date is the default, but you can enter any future or past date. |
A date that indicates one of the following:
o When a component part goes into effect on a bill of material
o When a routing step goes into
effect as a sequence on the routing for an item
o When a rate schedule is in effect The default is the current system date. You can enter
future effective dates so that the system plans for upcoming changes. Items that are no longer effective in the future can still be recorded and
recognized in Product Costing, Shop Floor Management, and Capacity Requirements Planning. The Material Requirements Planning system
determines valid components by effectivity dates, not by the bill of material revision level. Some forms display data based on the effectivity
dates you enter. |
