Sage 200 is made up of powerful business modules, which are designed to work together to help your operation run more smoothly. Sage 200 Bill of Materials (BOM) follows your bill of materials process from start to finish. It breaks down the manufacturing operation into easily accessible areas including materials, labour, machines operations and reporting.

Your warehouse staff can quickly and easily select items for assembly or pick finished goods/ components for dispatch, using Sage 200 BOM.

Should your business be undertaking light assembly, you could have full control of manufacturing requirements by following the bill of materials process from beginning to end. You can easily identify shortages of materials and automatically place purchase orders, saving you complications.

Key Functionality

• Easily manage Bill of Materials (BOM) - Multiple versions of a BOM can be stored and used, one of which is ‘live’ at a given time. With powerful version control, only one person can edit or change a BOM at any one time and staff are aware that a BOM is being edited.
• Precise Costing - Detailed costs can be built in for each unit or build run. Additionally, you can allocate a proportion of a fixed cost/operating overhead to a run, based on an average number of units per run.
• Flexible Nominal Ledger analysis - Stock use can be summarised to a single line for each nominal account when bomting to the Nominal Ledger, or split out to multiple lines by component. Summarising nominal bomtings significantly reduces the volume of Nominal Ledger transactions, improving performance.
• Intuitive operation - The Bill of Materials module shares the same outstanding usability as the rest of the Sage 200 system with uncluttered screens and intuitive navigation. Making it easier for your staff to use the software.
• Multiple views of BOM structures  - The view allows drill-down through all levels and branches of the BOM.
• Flexible build options  - The system can be configured to always build subassemblies, or always use from stock, or allow choice in each case. Picking lists can be produced at the time of allocation or separately.
• Customised BOM’s - The system can be configured to always build subassemblies, or always use from stock, or allow choice in each case. Picking lists can be produced at the time of allocation or separately.

A typical Sage 200 BOM user would not require the full functionality of Sage 200 Manufacturing but does require the ability to link components to assemblies and sub assemblies and also requires accurate costing on each build. Another reason to use Sage 200 BOM is its integration with the Sage 200 stock system which adds full component traceability, multiple stock valuation methods and locations to the BOM functionality.
