Production Management
SAP Business One Production Management simplifies definition and management of bill of materials for production, assembly and sales.
SAP Business One business management and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution supports all your basic requirements for production activities by enabling you to accurately and effectively manage bills of materials (BOMs), production orders, and material requirements.
Accurate and streamlined inventory management is crucial to your ability to deliver on promise, as well as to maintain customer satisfaction and inventory cost control. Inventory and production management tools in the SAP Business One application help manage detailed warehouse data, track and record stock movements, and plan and release production orders based on your material requirements planning.
The application simplifies definition and management of BOMs for production, assembly, and sales. For example, with a production bill of materials, you can readily document the type, quantity, and price of materials needed to manufacture the final products, as well as quantity availability. Once BOMs have been defined, production orders can be created and released based on them. Component needs, costs, and materials availability are automatically added to your work orders, enforcing accurate allocation of raw materials to products and volume control.
