• Key Concepts: 
  Assembly factor is a feature in SAP's PLM Web UI (PLM-WUI-OBJ) that allows users to define the number of components that make up a single assembly. This is useful for creating assemblies with multiple components, such as a car engine or a computer system. The assembly factor can be set to any number, allowing users to create assemblies with any number of components. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the assembly factor feature, users must first create an assembly in the PLM Web UI. Once the assembly is created, users can select the “Assembly Factor” option from the menu. This will open a window where users can enter the desired number of components for the assembly. Once the number is entered, users can save the assembly and begin adding components to it. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the assembly factor feature, it is important to remember that each component must be added individually. This means that if an assembly has 10 components, each component must be added one at a time. Additionally, it is important to remember that the assembly factor cannot be changed once an assembly has been created.
