Specifies information about the components that are used to create the assembly item that is specified on the assembly order header.

Note
Assembly components are consumed from the assembly order lines. Assembly items are output from the assembly order header.

For information about the functionality of assembly order lines, see Assembly Order.

Assembly orders differ from other order types because they include both output and consumption when they are being posted. With regard to this, the assembly order header behaves similarly to a sales order line, and the assembly order lines behave similarly to consumption journal lines.
