Is there a way in Acumatica to know what an Engineering BOM would look like when it gets turned into a Production Order BOM before the production order gets created?

Best answer by angierowley75

The best solution I can offer is to create a new Production Order Type and choose this new type to test how the Production Order structure will look.  You can then cancel these ‘test’ production orders.

Do you have phantoms?  Trying to understand the root of your question.  Why would your Item BOM differ from the Production BOM?

That is exactly the reason for my question.  We have the need to understand how those phantoms are being presented to the floor, before the ENG BOM gets released.  Some of our sub-assemblies are built as the parent item is traveling down the line, and we don’t create production orders for some of those sub-assemblies.
