This module works with Inventory Management to fully specify the manufacturing process for finished goods and components, using three integrated modules: Bill of Materials, Standard Product Routing, and Standard Product Costing. Managerial effectiveness can be improved by centrally documenting the bill of materials, thus enhancing communication.

• Traditional and Activity Based Costing.
• Open-ended multi-level bill of materials.
• Multiple open ended bill types: Engineering, Standard, and Planning, with multiple activity dates.
• Global component supersession.
• Item supersession history tracking.
• Definition of material and labor burden, manufacturing gate, operations, work centers, and machines.
• Labor burden calculated for frozen, current, and simulated costs.
• Multi-level cost rollups, lead-time rollups, backflush and multiple gate backflush.
• Multi-dimensional planning BOM with expected percentages of features and options.
• Bills of activity for accumulating costs.
