The Bill of Material (B.O.M.) function allows
you to maintain a list of materials and outside services
needed to produce one finished part, including for each
item the quantity required, vendor and price. Once a B.O.M.
is created or modified, it is available for any current
or future estimates or jobs for the same part or drawing
number.
A Job Bill of Materials reflects the total
quantities of each item on a B.O.M. that are required to
complete all the parts being manufactured for a specific
job.
A special Job Bill Screen records actual
purchases of materials, sub-contractor services and other
items as they are consumed, including when they occurred
and the cost. If Purchase Orders are issued through Realtrac
for job related items, detail information and costs are
automatically inserted in the Bill Screen upon receipt of
those items. Finished parts transferred to a Sales Order
are also inserted on the Bill Screen. In addition, you can
manually enter materials, services and other items to record
their use and costs.
