Bills of Materials

Bill of Materials (BOM) describes the production process in detail:

• Production Routing by operations;
• Finished product and its quantity;
• Raw materials and their quantity;
• Production Operations costs;
• Standard production time.

• Update Costs in Bills of Materials

Create Bill of Materials

1. In the Kladana workspace, select Production → Bills of Materials.
2. Click +BOM.
3. Specify the Bill of Materials details:
   • Name (required);
   • Routing (required);
   • Folder;
   • Comment.
4. In the Finished Products tab, add the products that will be the result of the production process. Specify their quantity.
5. If you need to produce two or more items, choose the method of cost allocation between them:
   • Based on the sale price — the cost is allocated proportionally to the number of items in the Bill of Materials and the sale price specified in the item product card.
   • Based on the quantity of products — the cost is allocated proportionally to the quantity of items in the Bill of Materials.
     
6. In the Raw Materials tab, for each Production Operation:
   • Add the materials required to manufacture the products. If you need to add many materials, click Excel/CSV file and upload a file in XLS or CSV format.
   • The quantity of each material is indicated automatically according to the BOM’ Quota and can be edited if necessary.
   • To edit raw materials, click on the three dots at the end of the material line and select the action from the menu.
   • You can move raw materials between the operations of the BOM. To do this, select the materials you want to move using checkboxes, click Move to another operation, and choose the operation from the list.
     
   • Specify the Bill of Material if you are going to produce the material yourself.
     
7. In the Operations Costs tab, specify for each operation:
   • Standard Hour Cost — filled in automatically if specified in the Production Operation.
   • Standard Hours — the time required for production. Standard hours are also considered in the Operation report and Production progress report.
   • Labour Cost — depends on the cost and quantity of Standard Hours. If the Standard Hour Cost is changed in the Production Operation, the Standard Hours value is highlighted in red. In this case, it must be recalculated. To recalculate the Labour Cost, hover over the Production Operation line and click .
   • Operational Cost — added to raw material costs when calculating the cost of finished products.
   
8. Click Save.

Working with Bills of Materials

Bills of Materials (BOM) can be printed. The following print templates are available:

• Bill of Materials — this template provides basic information such as the product, materials, quantities, production operations, and costs related to production and labor.
• Product Cost Estimates — in addition to basic information, it includes the planned production cost based on purchase prices.
• Product Cost Tree — the template includes the raw materials and costs of semi-finished products from nested Bills of Materials (BOMs). The calculation is performed for one product unit per BOM. The maximum allowable nesting level is 15 BOMs.

You can also add custom fields to the Bills of Materials.

In the Production Operations of the Bill of Materials, you can perform bulk editing for the following parameters: Operational Costs, Labor Costs, Standard Hours. When performing bulk editing of these parameters, please consider the following:

• If a BOM folder is selected, the edited parameter will be updated for each BOM within that folder.
• If no specific BOM or folder is selected, changes to Operational Cost will be applied across all BOMs.
• Changes to Operational Cost are irreversible.
• Archived BOMs cannot be edited.
• To perform bulk editing of BOMs, you must have read or edit permissions in the Products and Services section.

Update Costs in Bills of Materials

You can edit Operational Cost, Labour Cost, and Standard Hours for Production Operations in the Bills of Materials.

1. In the Kladana workspace, select Production → Bills of Materials.
2. Select the required Bills of Materials in the list. Click Edit and choose Change the costs from the drop-down menu.
   If no Bills of Materials are selected, the costs will be updated for all Bills of Materials.
   If a group of Bills of Materials is selected but no individual Bill of Materials is chosen, the costs will be updated for all Bills of Materials in the group.
3. In the opened window, specify the cost type to update: Operational Cost, Labour Cost, or Standard Hours.
4. Select the Production Operation for which the selected costs need to be updated.
5. Choose the method to update the costs:
   • Set a specific value — specify the exact value for the selected costs.
   • Calculate a value based on operational costs — select the cost type to base the calculation on. Specify how to adjust the value: increase (+) or decrease (-). Enter the amount or percentage for the adjustment.
6. If necessary, specify the rounding precision for the updated costs.
7. Click Update BOMs.
