About Empty Applicability

Configured parts can include effectivity that is not defined. You can initially save a BOM row with a blank effectivity (the expression is not specified). However, if a row already contains a current effectivity value, you cannot remove it. If you try to remove the expression, you cannot save it, and the expression reverts to what was previously there.

Applying Empty Applicability
  • You can apply empty applicability only on configured BOM structures that are not change-required.
  • Blank applicability components will be shown for all filter applicability expressions that are within the configuration criteria.
  • You cannot use a CA as a work under change without having applicability defined on the CA.
  • You can use a valid CA as work under change on validated BOM structures to remove or replace objects on empty applicability defined BOM components.
