Table E-4. Reporting Relationships for BOMs
Level Reports To Description
Order
Number
N/A Listed in the price list and used by the customer to
order products from Bay Networks.
980 N/A Required for all products that have a build-to-stock
process. Only one per Order Number, the 980 level
cannot be used on build-to-order products, since we
lose visibility to the configuration on the pick list. The
980 level on build-to-stock products is helpful for
managing many parts at the Order Number level.
965 980 or Order Number Shipped assemblies. This is usually a make and will
contain accessory kits, rack kits etc.
960 980 Usually the internal final assembly or subassembly,
make level of the product. Required for: (a) transferring
an internal Bay product without an accessory kit,
shipped assemblies etc. at the 980 or Order Number
levels, often for transfers to engineering during pilot
and ECO modeling, or monthly ORT allocations; (b)
allowing remanufacturing to inventory the unit without
the accessory kits and shipped assemblies. There may
be more than one 960 level. Some examples would be
for a complex mechanical chassis, e.g., a card cage
assembly reporting to a chassis subassembly that
reports to a final assembly. This level could be a make
that adds memory to a board assembly.
930 920, 960, 980, or
Order Number
Used to structure flash SIMMs with a raw device,
specification, and program.
920 930, 960, 980, or
Order Number
Usually the PC board assembly that will also
sometimes contain mechanical brackets, assemblies,
memory etc. This level will be typically set-up as a buy
item, but could be set-up as a make.
900 920, 960, 980 or
Order Number
A mechanical assembly that is a buy or make level.
Typically used to group a number of mechanical parts
together as an assembly that could be procured by
internal manufacturing or external manufacturers.
795 980 or Order Number Documents accessory kits, rack mount kits and
packaging kits which can be make or buy items.
