Oracle ASCP SUPPORTS two types of substitution:

COMPONENT substitution and end-item-level substitution.

The term end-item refers to the finished good or saleable product. End-item-level substitution is an acceptable business practice in many industries. It is often possible to fulfill customer demand on time when the requested item is not available by substituting a more functionally rich product. Substitution is also done to use up existing inventory of older, functionally equivalent ITEMS.

Component substitution refers to substitution of component of BOM with another component.
