Features:

Benefits:

·     A complete cost roll-up system calculates the latest component costs and rolls these costs up to the parent level.  Cost roll-ups can be performed for one part, a list of parts or all parts.

·     Eliminates the guesswork in pricing or estimating because you know exactly what it costs to build your products.

·     Effectivity dates allow changes to occur automatically on a desired date.

·     Engineering change orders can be prepared and approved in advance to prevent bottlenecks.  Engineering change orders will not prematurely go into effect because new parts that are required have not yet been received.

·     Allows a Bill of Material for phantom assemblies.

·     Costs, as well as engineering concepts, can be expressed without changing shop floor paperwork or setting up unwanted subassemblies.

·     Allows quick creation logic in establishing new bills.

·     New Bills of Material can be set up easily by taking advantage of similar bills that exist on the system.

·     Permits unlimited levels within a bill of material.

·     The user’s item structure can be expressed in the most minute detail.

·     Information can be readily available in both screen and report formats

·     Information is both timely and interactively available.

·     Allows multiple bill types.

·     Different types capability allows tracking of parts in different stages of prototype, engineering and production.

·     Provides flexibility in the relief of materials during manufacturing.

·     The BOM provides different methods and timing of material usage in manufacturing.  This keeps the true inventory picture in sync with the real flow of the shop floor.

·     Material available check through Pre-Kit analysis.

·     Verifying material availability before committing capacity can help maximize production resources.
