What is a Bill of Materials (BOM) in ManufApp?

A Bill of Materials (BOM) is a digital record that lists all the materials, components, and sub-assemblies required to manufacture a Finished Good (FG). It defines the relationship between the final product and its building blocks, including:

  • Raw Materials (RM)

  • Work-in-Progress (WIP) items

  • Sub-assemblies

Each BOM includes quantities based on a defined unit (using the BOM Divisor) and supports multi-level structures, allowing WIP items to automatically pull their own BOMs. This ensures clarity, accuracy, and scalability in production planning.
