About Manufacturing
This section describes the Bill of Materials and Time Billing modules. It explains how a Bill of Materials (BOM) is set up and processed. It also details the processing of a Works Order and explains the handling of Time Billing.
Bills of Materials can be classified into three different types:
-
Kit – individual components are sold, and the code is a shortcut code to the collection of components
-
Build – all components are consumed in a transformation to make an output stock item.
-
Order Template – a simple product list for use with Sales Orders only. The BOM code becomes a shortcut to the product list, to save keying each product into the order.
Note: See the MYOB EXO Business White Paper "BOMs and Stock Code Enhancements" for technical details on Bills of Materials, including information on the database tables and fields they use.
