how does BOM work in SCM mobile

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In NetSuite's Supply Chain Management (SCM) mobile, the Bill of Materials (BOM) works in a similar way as it does in the desktop version. However, there are no specific threads discussing the BOM functionality in SCM mobile. Based on the threads provided, here's how BOM works in general: 1. You can get a BOM inquiry in SuiteScript by initiating a work order with the phantom checkbox checked by default. This will load the full BOM on the work order and you can loop through the items. 2. If you have Advanced BOMs turned on, you can access the Bill of Materials sublist field via scripting. It is on the Assembly Item record under the Manufacturing tab on the Bill of Materials sublist. You can use Analytics or the query module, starting with a BOM revision record and working your way up to the value you need. 3. The switch to Advanced BOMs can be beneficial for revision control and if you want to use the outsourced manufacturing feature. With Advanced BOMs, you get a separate record for Bill of Materials that gets attached to the item record, but you don’t see the components on the item itself. 4. You can have multiple revisions active for one item, or you can create a new revision if one is outdated. However, with legacy BOMs, you need to end one revision and start another, while with Advanced BOMs, you might be able to overlap revisions. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
