Bill of Materials Management Module |

Individual variant configuration
Variant configuration facilitates management of inventory
items having multiple attributes (e.g. color, size, or vendor)
using a single stock code, while allowing users to track
various quantities separately.
Individual variant configuration functionality within the BOM
Management module helps for unrestricted specification of
available component choices for variant type items, and
allows creation of user-specific variant templates. Each
component can be created with a default value which can
later be modified, and complex variants can be created
using highly specific rules.
User-friendly data entry screens eliminate the need for
specialized training for users. These interactive screens
provide users with only those options that apply to the
product being built, resulting in efficient and convenient
operations where errors are minimized.
The integrated reporting wizard facilitates generation of
analytical reports including materials analysis and material
where-used reports. Users may also drill down into
product trees and analyze the various levels of
semi-finished items and their component items used
in the product tree.
BOM facilitates accurate cost calculation
The design of Bill of Materials provide efficient management
of information relating to materials and components
by streamlining the coordination between different
departments and supporting various factors that influence
realization of sales orders.
An error-free BOM specification ensures efficient functioning
of the manufacturing process and minimizes associated
costs. A precisely specified BOM containing updated
information will allow for accurate sales pricing to be obtained, taking into account the various factors influencing the associated product price.
With correctly configured product variants, and accurately
designed, planned and manufactured product trees, costs for
each step in the production process will be minimized.
Planning for utilization of work center resources
While creating routing information, the work processes and
related BOM levels can be linked to an integrated resource list
to facilitate tracking of work center tool utilization. This allows
the CANIAS ERP BOM Management module to also provide
precise planning for utilization of resources at the process
level.
