Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pegging is the process of identifying and linking parent and child items in a bill of materials, thereby establishing the precise relationship between them. It helps in tracking the inventory, setting production schedules, and determining material requirements for manufacturing. Paternity is generally used in genetic testing, and relationship tracking may refer to tracking sales or customer relationships, but these are not directly related to identifying parent items. Requirement I.D. and Master Scheduling are also important aspects of production planning, but they do not specifically pertain to identifying parent items.
