Bills Of Material (BOM) is a list of components required to manufacture its parent (assembly) item. To manufacture any assembly setting up BOM is critical. BOM doesn’t drive the manufacturing process, but it is a simple statement of list of material required. BOM is used by MRP/Supply chain planning to plan the components.
