• Key Concepts: 
  A unitized part is a component of a complex assembly in SAP Complex Assembly Manufacturing (MFG-CAM). It is a part that has been pre-assembled and packaged in a single unit, ready for use in the assembly process. Unitized parts are typically used to reduce the amount of time and effort required to assemble a complex product. 
  
  How to Use It: 
  Unitized parts can be used in the assembly process by simply adding them to the bill of materials (BOM) for the product. The BOM will then be used to generate the necessary instructions for assembling the product. The unitized parts can then be added to the assembly line and used as needed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using unitized parts, it is important to ensure that they are compatible with the other components of the product. This can be done by checking the specifications of each part and making sure that they are compatible with each other. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the unitized parts are properly labeled so that they can be easily identified during the assembly process.
