Creating & Managing BOMs
Bills of Materials
Go to Manufacturing > Master Data > Bills of Materials.
BOM Form - All Fields
| Field | Model Field | Behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| Product | product_id | The finished product this BOM produces. |
| Quantity | product_qty | Number of units produced by one BOM cycle. |
| BOM Type | type | Normal (manufacture this product), Kit (phantom BOM, product is a set). |
| Routing | routing_id | The production steps required. |
| Reference | code | Internal BOM code (e.g. BOM-001). |
| Active | active | Uncheck to archive. |
Components Tab
Add raw materials and sub-assemblies:
- Product - The raw material or sub-component.
- Quantity - Amount per BOM quantity.
- Unit of Measure - Can differ from product UoM (e.g. kg vs g).
- Scrap (%) - Expected waste %. Quickenerp reserves extra material.
- Operations - Which operation consumes this component.
- Apply on Variants - For multi-variant products.
By-Products Tab
If the production process yields secondary products (e.g. sawdust, scrap metal), add them here. The by-product quantity is deducted from total production cost.
Multi-Level BOMs (Sub-Assemblies)
If a component has its own BOM, Quickenerp recursively explodes it. Create a BOM for the sub-assembly, then add the sub-assembly as a component. When the MO is created, the system shows all raw materials at the lowest level.
Kit (Phantom) BOM
For products sold as a set but not physically assembled. The components are delivered individually. Use BOM Type = "Kit". No MO is created - the kit is delivered directly from stock of its components.
BOM Versioning
Create multiple BOMs for the same product. Set one as active. Use BOM version comparison to review changes. When you archive an old BOM, new MOs use the active BOM.
