Bill of Materials: Manufacturing
Combine raw material inventory items into another inventory item and track their costs with a bill of materials (BOM). A BOM is a comprehensive list of raw materials, sub-assemblies, intermediate assemblies, sub-components, components, parts, and the quantities of each needed to manufacture an end product.
Steps:
1. (BOM Lookup)
2. (Bill of Components)
3. (New Production Run)
