Job Entry - Get Details - Appending Materials

When using Job Entry - Get Details and appending Materials, the sequencing in which the subassemblies are appended onto the job is different to the sequencing in the Method master.

The job that we are appending to only has 3 operations, no material.

When we use the Get details function to get details from Method master, and we Append both Operations and Materials - the operations append ok, but the materials, which in this case are subassemblies, get appended in a strange order.

On the left below is the order in the Job, on the right it shows the order from the Parts / Method master.

Do you know what could be causing this?

Assembling sequencing is quote important for production, is there any way to force it to be appended in the same order as the master?

Thanks!

Task Short Description: Engineering Workbench - Get Details From Quote does not explode the entire subassemblies from template quote

Task Description: Prod Code: "EPIC" - ROLIVARES(11/10/2016)Able To Duplicate On Epicor Current Code 10.1.600

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:Get Details From Quote does not explode the entire subassemblies defined on Quote Entry. So in this case subassembly XX-D is missing as material on Engineering Workbench.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:Since on Engineering Workbench the subassemblies appear like materials,we should be able to see all subassemblies defined on Quote as materials, so we have to be able to see as materials; XX-C, XX-D,XX-E and XX-F.

WORKAROUND:Add manually the missing subassembly as material.

ADDITIONAL INFO:Get Details From Quote works correctly on Job Entry.
