Component Section - NOTE:  Items will appear on screen only if the "Used in Kit" on the BOM is "Y".  For further detail see Article #34.

This is the “Ignore Shortage” box: If you want to remove the component from the shortage reports and MRP, check the box at the left of the part number.  Note:  the box for checking KITTED shortages only works with those items that are kitted based on the BOM for the assembly. Checking the boxes means that the part on the BOM will NOT be considered for MRP purposes, and not show up on shortage lists. This is the only way you can get a part on the BOM off of the shortage list. Line shortages, however, can be edited to make them larger or completed.  The user will not be able to create a line shortage, then try to check the “ignore shortage” box, this box is disabled for added line shortages.  
This symbol before a part number is to inform the user that this part is originating from a Phantom BOM.  
When shortages have been saved for the work order, they will be added to the Kit Status section of the main information tab. The item will be preceded with the rho (? ) symbol to differentiate it from a kit shortage.
