Discrete and Process Manufacturing
Acumatica Bill of Material / Routing
The Bill of Material (BOM)/Routing module, part of the Acumatica Manufacturing Edition, creates production specifications and is the framework for the planning functionality in all Acumatica Manufacturing Edition modules. Maintenance of the BOM/Routing information is performed through a single screen.
INTEGRATED BOM/ROUTING
- Directly connect materials, work instructions, attributes, and overhead costs to an operation
- Allow for the time-phased release of materials.
MULTILEVEL BOM/ROUTING
- List the components required to produce an item, as well as any sub-assemblies and their components.
- Provide both an engineering and a costed view of the entire product structur
Key Benefits

- average, standard, and actual
- Add tooling costs and overhead costs, both fixed and variable
Features and Capabilities
EFFECTIVITY/EXPIRATION DATES
Control material planning and usage according to effectivity dates for phase-in and phase-out of content changes.
PRODUCTION STEPS
Document the entire process using detailed work instructions and standard note capability for each process step.
WHERE USED
Allows for components on Bills of Material to be displayed where they are used on a single-level or multi-level basis.
PHANTOMS
Use phantom items to simplify structure maintenance for related groups of parts and materials to multiple products. If you create a planning bill of material, your planning and production teams can “skip over” phantoms to plan and allocate components.
REFERENCE DESIGNATORS
Relate BOM component parts to the drawing’s part numbers to avoid confusion and duplicate entry in the bill of material.
MULTIPLE SITES
Enables the support of multiple sites and have different or alternate BOM/Routing for each different site.
BOM COST ROLL
Use flexible cost roll for a single-level or multi-level BOM, by item or site. Costs of the lower-level item will “roll” into the costs of the higher-level items. In a standard cost operation, costs will update the pending standard cost for each item in inventory.
FLEXIBLE COPY BOM
Copy an existing BOM/routing to a different item as an alternate BOM/routing or for easy setup for a new, similar item.
MASS CHANGE
Allows for the replacement of a component with a different component on individual or all Bills of Material.
ATTRIBUTES
Used to display optional or required values when reporting production. These are available on the bill of material header and/or operations and can be copied onto a Production Order when the order is created.
