This program allows you to specify bill of material finished items.
The Bill of Materials Entry screen consists of the header portion, where general information such as the finished item number, overhead, packaging and labor factors are entered, and the line-item portion where each component item and quantity used to make the bill of material item is entered.
Once the bill of materials item is set up in the entry program, production planning can be entered as well as actual production.
You can add, delete or modify line-items for the bill of materials finished item or delete the bill of materials item at any time.
A bill of materials item must be set through the Item F/M program and the BOM/Formula flag must be set to B before the items bill can be set up. All component items (items which are used to produce the bill of material item) must also be set up through the Item F/M program.
To access this program, click Manufacturing Control>Bill of Materials>Bill of Materials Entry.
Click field descriptions for information on each field.
