S-parts
Here you select the way in which the incorporated stocked parts (S-parts) in a structure order shall be handled during calculation.
- Do not explode - means that stocked parts will not be calculated for manufacturing in the calculation. The option is selected by default.
- Explode - means that stocked parts will be calculated for manufacturing in the calculation, using the quantity that is needed for one order. In this case, S-parts are treated as if they were M-parts.
- Recalculate - means that stocked parts will have their prices recalculated so that the planned costs of the calculation will be current for S-parts. If no recalculation is done, the price entered for S-parts in the part register (usually the Standard price, entered in the Settings procedure) applies. This option does not affect the calculation in any other way, other than setting the price for incorporated S-parts.
