BoM Outline Configuration

The BoM (Bill of Materials) Outline Configuration module in PrismERP allows organizations to define the structural framework for creating and managing Bills of Materials. It ensures standardization in how raw materials, semi-finished goods, and operations are linked to finished goods within the production cycle. This configuration acts as the backbone for smooth integration with production, MRP, costing, and inventory modules.

Key Features​

BoM Structure Definition​

  • Set up naming conventions, codes, and organizational linkage (Branch, SBU)

Item-Level Detailing​

  • Configure input/output components, unit of measure, wastage, and dependencies

Versioning and Template Control​

  • Support for base BoMs and multiple BoM versions for engineering changes

Rank and Event Mapping​

  • Component usage rank and event tagging (e.g., Mixing, Packing, Engobing)

Costing Parameters​

  • Define unit costs, estimated costs, and allow auto-calculation from raw material prices

Equipment & Workcenter Mapping​

  • Associate BoM with specific machines, equipment, or work centers

Attachments​

  • Upload designs, SOPs, PDFs, or drawings to support each BoM

Quality Control Fields​

  • Integration-ready fields for QC specs, inspection points, and testing parameters
