Usable component control
This parameter is used when raising or generating a work order.
Use this parameter to control the addition to a new work order of a component of a bill of materials (BOM) at Not usable status (as defined in the Product status field (ITMSTA) on the product/component record).
Yes - This is the default value for this parameter. You cannot create a work order if a component of a BOM is at Not usable status.
The list of components for the BOM is added to a work order with the line for the unusable component highlighted. Whilst the work order cannot be created, the highlighted line serves as a reference or warning that there is an issue that must be resolved before the work order can be created.
No - If a component of a BOM is at Not usable status when a new work order is created or generated, the component will be excluded from the lists of components for the work order.
Level of localization / Global variable
This parameter is defined at the level Folder. It belongs to Chapter GPA (Manufacturing) and the Group WOM (Work Order management), The following parameters are also associated with this chapter and group :
- CUMMAT (Material accumulation mode)

- RELSTRDAT (Level on WO start date change)
- RELUPD (Upgrade upon execution)
- TRACKMATWO (Track a WO component change)
- TRACKOPEWO (Track a WO operation change)
The global variable GCMPUSBCTR is associated with it.
