Single Product BOM

YouTube: Single product BOM

πŸ” Introduction

A Bill of Materials (BOM) is a structured list of all components, materials, and processes required to manufacture a finished product. In Logic ERP, a Single Product BOM helps define:

  • πŸ“¦ Raw materials

  • πŸ› οΈ Production processes

  • πŸ“Š Cost estimates

  • πŸ“ Consumption ratios

By setting up your BOM accurately, you streamline production, ensure proper planning, and control costs.


🧱 Step 1: Define BOM Raw Material Types

Start by defining the types of raw materials you'll use. This helps organize materials and enables precise cost calculation.

βœ… What to Do:

  1. Go to the Raw Material Type Definition screen.

  2. Enter each material type name. Examples include:

    • 🧡 Fabric

    • πŸŽ€ Trims

    • πŸ“¦ Packaging

    • πŸ§ͺ Chemicals

  3. Click Save to confirm.

πŸ’‘ Tip: Well-defined material types make it easier to filter, analyze, and plan during procurement and costing.


πŸ› οΈ Step 2: Create the BOM

Now, define the actual BOM for a specific product, including all required raw materials, processes, and their usage per SKU.

βœ… What to Do:

  1. Open the Bill of Materials screen.

  2. Select:

    • πŸ‘• Style (e.g., T-Shirt 001)

    • 🎨 Shade (e.g., Navy Blue)

  3. Add each production process (e.g., Cutting βœ‚οΈ, Stitching 🧡, Finishing βœ…).

  4. For every process, input:

    • 🧾 Raw Materials used

    • πŸ“ Consumption ratio per SKU

    • πŸ“ Unit of measure (e.g., meters, pieces)

  5. Repeat for each process.

🧠 Example: For Cutting – 1.2 meters of cotton fabric per T-shirt.


πŸ’° Step 3: Add Tentative Cost Estimates (Optional)

Add estimated raw material costs to forecast production expenses and compare them with actuals later.

βœ… What to Do:

  1. For each material, enter the Estimated Cost per unit.

  2. Choose the Consumption Type:

    • πŸ”Ή Single Quantity – per unit of finished product

    • πŸ”Έ Batch Quantity – total consumption for a production batch

πŸ“Š Logic ERP will auto-calculate raw material consumption per unit when generating RM requirements for production order.


🎯 Key Benefits

Using a detailed BOM offers numerous advantages:

  • βœ… Accurate Planning: Know exactly what you need before production.

  • πŸ›’ Efficient Purchasing: Buy the right materials, at the right time, in the right quantity.

  • πŸ’Έ Cost Control: Forecast and monitor projected vs. actual production costs.

  • πŸ“¦ Inventory Accuracy: Prevent shortages or overstocking.

  • πŸ“ SKU-Specific Flexibility: Set unique material usage for each product variant.


βœ… Conclusion

By following this guide, you can:

  • Build detailed and reliable BOMs 🧾

  • Improve production efficiency βš™οΈ

  • Gain visibility into cost structures πŸ’΅

  • Enable smarter procurement and planning strategies πŸ“ˆ
