Bill of Materials (BOM) adding structure to your manufacturing operations
The Bill of Materials (BOM) allows you to facilitate accurate expected costs against which actual production costs can be tracked. The complete bill forms the foundation for material and capacity planning, shop floor control and costing. SYSPRO ERP with Bill of Materials ensures that information is used throughout your manufacturing process, engineering, production, purchasing and order processing.
