Summary
This module covers the process of BOM calculations and measurements, which help organizations manage the costs, sales prices, and material consumption associated with a BOM. It explains how to use the Calculate item cost page to determine costs and sales prices for manufactured items, generate cost records, and adjust prices in a costing version. The module distinguishes between BOM calculations using standard costs and planned costs, detailing the policies and restrictions for each. It also introduces order specific BOM calculations, which provide cost and sales price data for individual orders without affecting the costing version. Additionally, the module covers BOM measurements and configurations, allowing businesses to manage product variations in dimensions (height, width, depth, density) with a single BOM. This simplifies material consumption calculations and streamlines production by using measurement configurations. The setup includes defining measurement formulas, consumption options, and rounding methods to ensure accurate material requirements. Measurement conversion factors adjust for differences between standard and actual dimensions during production.
