Operation Allocated Parts
When you associate various attributes to the operation allocated parts in a process plan in Windchill MPMLink, Windchill ESI passes the attributes to the EAI software components. The following attributes are passed:
Part Number (this is the number of the component part in the assembly that is associated to the process plan)
Operation Number in Operation Allocated Part Link
Operation Label in Operation
Assembly Part Number
BOM Usage
BOM Alternate
Quantity
Quantity Unit
* 
Windchill ESI can also be used to publish part allocations from a phantom manufacturing part, if created in Windchill MPMLink.
Once the operation allocated parts data has been published by Windchill ESI Services, the EAI software components map the Windchill operation allocated parts attributes to SAP material table attributes. The following table shows the mapping of Windchill operation allocated parts attributes to SAP material master attributes
Windchill Operation Allocated Parts Attribute

Operation Label of the Operation

There are some attributes that SAP requires to create associations between Operations and Parts that are not provided by Windchill MPMLink. The EAI software components fetch these values from SAP.
