BOM & Inventory

Multi-level BOM + quantity definition + available-stock linkage — connected selection & quoting data

Manage a product's multi-level BOM, material quantities and finished-goods/raw-material stock in one place: build finished goods → sub-assemblies → raw materials level by level, define quantities and scrap clearly, link BOM to available stock in real time, and run one-click order kitting analysis — keeping selection, quoting and stocking on a single source of truth, with no more cross-checking spreadsheets.

Core Capabilities

From material breakdown to kitting analysis, full coverage of BOM and inventory

Multi-level BOM structure

Maintain finished goods → sub-assemblies → raw materials level by level; expand any level so the material breakdown of complex trade-mfg products stays clear.

Material quantity definition

Define unit consumption, scrap rate and substitute materials per item; when selecting and quoting, required material quantities are back-calculated from the BOM.

Available-stock linkage

Available stock is computed live as on hand − allocated + in transit; BOM and inventory are connected, so shortage or sufficiency is obvious at a glance.

Order kitting analysis

Compare an order's BOM item by item against available stock to auto-calculate producible quantity and a shortage list, exposing stocking gaps in advance.

Shared by sales & procurement

Finished-goods, sub-assembly and raw-material stock share one source; sales see sellable quantities, procurement sees shortages — one inventory, no mismatched ledgers.

Full change audit trail

BOM versions and inventory adjustments are fully audited — who changed a quantity or adjusted stock is traceable and reversible at any time.

Use Cases

Flexibly adapts to different business models

01
Trade-mfg multi-level BOM

Own factory plus export trade — maintain finished-to-raw multi-level BOMs that production and procurement share as one material breakdown.

02
Pre-order kitting check

For a big customer inquiry, back-calculate available materials from the BOM and judge kitting before accepting the order — replenish shortages ahead of time.

03
Unified finished & raw stock

Sellable finished-goods quantities and raw-material shortages on one screen — sales quoting and procurement replenishment from one source, no mismatched ledgers.

BOM Maintenance Workflow

From structure build-out to kitting analysis, a closed loop across BOM and inventory

1
Build BOM

Create the multi-level BOM tree of finished goods → sub-assemblies → raw materials, attaching materials level by level

2
Define Quantities

Fill in unit consumption, scrap rate and substitute materials for each item to set clear consumption rules

3
Link Inventory

Connect BOM quantities to available stock, showing each material's sufficient-or-short status in real time

4
Kitting Analysis

Compare the order BOM against available stock → derive producible quantity and a shortage list for early stocking

FAQ

Questions you may have

Does it support multi-level BOM structures?

Yes. You can maintain a multi-level BOM tree of finished goods → sub-assemblies → raw materials, defining quantity, scrap rate and substitute materials at each level. Expand any level to see the full material breakdown, fitting the complex products of trading-and-manufacturing exporters.

How are BOM and inventory linked?

BOM quantities are connected in real time to finished-goods and raw-material stock. When selecting products and quoting, required materials are back-calculated from the BOM, and available stock (on hand − allocated + in transit) determines whether an order can be kitted, so shortages are obvious without cross-checking multiple spreadsheets.

What is kitting analysis?

Kitting analysis compares each item of an order's BOM against available stock, automatically working out the producible quantity and a shortage list. It surfaces stocking gaps early so procurement and production can replenish ahead of time, avoiding line stoppages discovered only after work begins.

Can finished-goods and raw-material stock be managed in one place?

Yes. Finished goods, sub-assemblies and raw materials are maintained in one inventory center. Sales see sellable quantities of finished goods while procurement sees raw-material shortages — from a single source of truth, with sales and procurement sharing one set of inventory and no mismatched ledgers.
