    Hi!
    What is this "Bill of materials headers and versions V3 "?
    I have never heard of this entity and have not found any mention of it in the standard SCM documentation.

    Good day,
     
    Could you share the Excel file you’re using for the import? Or perhaps a screenshot of the data in Excel?
     
    Best regards,

    Hello,
    I filtered on the BOMID : 000035 (demo usmf environement),
    exported the file,
    set ISACTIVE, ISAPPROVED to No then imported again.

    here's the file

    Good day,
     
    Thanks for sharing the Excel file.
     
    I've done a few tests... Could you try again using the entity 'Bill of Materials Version V4'?
     
     
     
    The import was succesful without any errors:

    Hello Laurens,

    Thank you for your response.

    I tried using the entity 'Bill of Materials Version V4' and the result is as follows.
    If I set ISAPPROVED and ISACTIVE to No, It will create another Bom version Line not updating the current one because the ISACTIVE flag is part of the Entity Key thus modifying it will result in creating a new record.
    If I only set only the ISAPPROVED to No. It will generate the following error:
    Results. Version is not approved and thus cannot be activated
    Results. validateWrite failed on data source 'BOMVersion (BOMVersion)'



    PS: Disapproving Bills of material headers is successful with this entity: Bill of materials headers
    I only still have to disapprove the Versions
    PSS: I can also change the To Date of the bom version using 'Bill of Materials Version V4'
