How to Create a BOM in ManufApp

Creating a Bill of Materials (BOM) in ManufApp helps you define all the components needed to make a finished product. This quick guide shows how to set up a BOM step-by-step, including WIP items and raw materials.

Step 1: Go to Items Master

  • Navigate to: Masters → Items

  • Select the FG Item (e.g., ITEM00018) for which you will define the BOM.



Step 2: Click on “Add BOM”

  • Open the FG item detail page.

  • Click on “Add BOM” from the top-right section to begin defining the components (WIP, RM).



Step 3: Set BOM Divisor

  • In the BOM setup page, set BOM Divisor = 1 (if you are defining for 1 unit of FG). This will calculate per unit of finished product.

Step 4: Add WIP Items

  1. Select the first WIP (e.g., WIP_10244) for FG.

  2. Set the quantity = 1 and BOM Divisor = 1 (this means 1 WIP per FG).



  1. Click + Add Child to add another WIP item.

  2. Select the second WIP (e.g., WIP_1025).


Step 5: Automatic RM Pulling

  • When you add WIP_1025, the system automatically pulls the RM from the pre-defined BOM of that WIP.

  • Do not edit RM quantities here in the FG BOM.


Step 6: Finalize BOM

  • After adding all WIPs and RMs, click Save BOM

Step 7: BOM Created Notification

  • Once the BOM is successfully created, you will receive a notification indicating BOM created successfully.


Step 8: Verify BOM in Item Master

  • After the BOM is created, go back to Masters → Items.

  • You will see the item (ITEM00018) now has a green checkmark (indicating that the BOM is successfully created and associated with this item).

  • This visual cue confirms that the BOM setup is complete and linked to the correct item in the system.
