Bill of Material (BOM) Outline

A Bill of Material (BOM) is a structured list of all the raw materials, components, subassemblies, and parts required to manufacture a finished product. It acts as a blueprint for production, ensuring that all necessary elements are available in the correct quantities and sequence.

Add BOM Outline​

The BOM Outline is the basic template of a specific product item. It contains the essential steps of production, including stepwise consumption and production details. The BOM Outline is used in various production processes such as:

  • BOM Specifications
  • Pre-Costing
  • Production Record Entry

Navigation Add BOM Outline

To create a BOM Outline, the user must fill in the following details and click the Save button:

Form Fields​

  • Name: The name of the BOM Outline.
  • Code: The unique code for the BOM Outline. This code is displayed as the tab name in the BOM Outline details page.
  • Unit: The production unit name.
  • Item: The production item for which the user is creating the BOM Outline.
  • Quantity: The amount of product to be produced by the recipe/template.
  • UOM (Unit of Measurement): The measurement unit for production.
  • Other Cost: Additional overhead costs required for production, such as Labor Cost, Other Expenses, etc. These costs can be either fixed or percentage-based. The cost head is configurable, allowing users to define it as per requirements.
