Advanced BOM enables you to do the following:
- Copy existing BOMs and create new BOMs
- Use a single BOM across multiple assemblies
For example, multiple bicycle frame sizes could all use the same wheel assembly BOM.
- Assign multiple BOMs to a single assembly
- Apply unique BOMs to various stages of the product lifecycle
For example, an engineering BOM, a production BOM, and a subcontracting BOM.
- Copy existing Manufacturing Routings and create new routings
- Designate a default BOM for an assembly, or select an assembly default BOM for a location
For example, a bicycle assembly produced in Canada uses BOM CA. When the company starts producing the same bicycle in the U.S., the system uses BOM U.S.
- Define yield at the component level on the BOM revision record
Component yield enables you to account for material component loss during ordering and planning.
- Create multiple revisions of a BOM with different effective start and end dates
