Low Date:
If marked, the system proposes the earliest processing date (in
standard 01.01.1900) by default for the BOM maintenance. When
unchecked, system proposes the system date for the same.
Example in CS01/CS02 :
With Low Date checked:
what are the BOM usages and BOM status combinations that will
have change management mandatory.
If you do not require change management for any BOMs, you may
uncheck this indicator.
Note: This indicator cannot be removed when using History
Requirement indicator because active history requirement has
ECM as a mandatory feature. You will receive the following error
message:
For example: I have a BOM valid from 01.01.2013 and I have the
sub-items for item 0010 as shown:

It is recommended to leave this indicator unchecked to avoid
inconsistencies. One example is given here.
Suppose we have this indicator active.
We create a BOM with a change number with parameter
effectivity. The header is also subjected to this parameter
effectivity. We further change this BOM with another change
number with parameter effectivity. During this change, if we
change only the BOM items, and not the header, the following
consequence will follow. If we try to explode the BOM with a
parameter variant corresponding to the new change number,
system will be unable to find the BOM header, thus not exploding
the same. The items are thus not being considered.
Kindly follow the link mentioned earlier to know the usage of
parameter effectivity in Engineering Change management of
BOMs.
As a recommended setting, we leave it blank.
Handling Deletion Indicators for BOM Explosion:
This setting is implemented in accordance with the OSS note
552974.
The BOM explosion function modules had issues with the
alternatives with deletion flag. This is corrected by this
functionality and implementation of the note mentioned.
Technical Type:
BOM Item:
change numbers so that the items can overlap or may have two
or more versions of an item present.
Please follow the link shared for a detailed example:

We will take a simple example. The BOM is defined from
01.01.2013.
Now we shift the valid from date of the second change number to
20.08.2013. That will make the period from 20.08.2013 to
01.10.2013 as an overlap period.
When 1, system takes the most recently created version, i.e. the
effect of third change number.
With blank it takes the item text from status/ long text tab:
Note, system will not however, allow the same during creation. It
is only applicable when you change the BOM with a change
number. Then you can allow the same Item ID used earlier.
General Settings:
Unit 'Piece':
For the header of the BOMs like Equipment BOM (IB01
transaction), Functional Location BOM (IB11 transaction) etc. this
UOM is used. This comes as default, and this is not changeable.
For the components with item category text item, document item,
or non-stock without material master, this is the default UOM
used.
CAD Active:
This indicator is only relevant for material BOMs and it shows that
the BOMs can be generated from a CAD system.
The field is shown in the components detail Basic Data tab CAD
indicator, and the header data Further Data tab CAD indicator.
There are various CAD integrators available and offered by SAP.
PDM integration for AutoCAD is one of the used techniques;
