When Clicking the Components Button in Order Entry to Display Bill of Materials Component Items, the Description Shown is the BOM Master Item Description Rather than the Component Item.. Where to Specify the Component Item Description?

When you click the Components Button in Order Entry for a line item that consists of a Bill of Materials (BOM) the Component Description displayed is the BOM Master Item Description.

This is a setup issue for the BOM.. Go to I/C Items - Bill of Materials.. Select your Master Item

Double-Click on the Component Item to bring up the I/C Component's Bills of Material screen.

If this description is Blank, then in Order Entry, it will inheret the Master Item Description.. 

Whereas if you enter a description here it will show in the Order.
