Bill of Materials

Objective

To define the relationship between a manufactured item and its component materials as well as the sequence of operations required to produce the item, facilitating an accurate expected cost against which to track actual production costs.

The Value of SYSPRO Bill of Materials

• Detailed screen query showing costing information and operational Gantt Charts

• Multi-level trial kitting identifies material shortages

• Standard and "what-if" costing queries and analysis with comparison to current costs

• Supports planning bills, phantom parts and sub-contract operations

• Optional components supported for sales of kits

• Track component level of effectivity dates

• Define scrap factors for more accurate planning

• Drag-and-drop facility in Bill of Material maintenance
