| Bill Revisions |
Different
versions of a bill can be maintained simultaneously. This
feature is useful if you change the configuration of your
product but still need to refer to the old
configurations. |
| Bill Options |
Bills
with multiple configurations can be created. Up to nine
categories of options can be defined for each bill. Each
Option Category can have an unlimited number of valid
choices. |
| Up to 99 levels |
Components
grouped together for manufacturing purposes but never
built for stock can be defined as a Phantom bill. You can
print reports with Phantom bills, or you can blow through
Phantom bills by printing only their components. |

| Sales Kit Processing |
Sales
Kits are single-level assemblies not normally stocked
together but grouped as a unit when a sale is made. Kit
components can be added or deleted during Sales Order
Entry. At your preference, component detail can be
printed on Sales Orders and picking sheets. |
| Yield and Scrap Accommodation |
Built-in
yield and scrap accommodation provides accurate
forecasting of material requirements as well as final
output. Both yield and scrap calculations can be used
within a single bill. |
| Production Entry |
Manufactured
products can be recorded into inventory and component
materials relieved using this program. During the entry
process, bills are automatically exploded into component
detail lines. You can add, delete or change component
items and override standard quantities and warehouse for
each component. Miscellaneous Charges and comments can
also be entered. |
| Disassembly Entry |
Disassembly
of manufactured products can be recorded into inventory
and component materials returned to stock using this
program. |
| Engineering Change Control |
Planned
changes to the bill structure can be recorded in advance.
You can add or delete multiple components from a bill
using the Engineering Change Entry process. You can also
specify an Effective Date when printing reports to
include engineering changes up to that date. |
| Miscellaneous Charges |
Bills
can include non-material charges such as labor and
overhead costs. Actual units and costs associated with
Miscellaneous Charges can be entered during Production
Entry to reflect actual costs incurred. |
| Cost Roll-up Register |
The
cost of each bill can be calculated based upon the cost
of each component and Miscellaneous Charge, and upon any
yield and scrap percentages. The component costs can be
calculated using the average, last or standard cost
method. |
| Work Order Integration |
When
integrated with the Work Order Processing module, bill of
material components can be automatically merged into a
work order. The Work Order module provides a complete
Work in Process Manufacturing System for companies that
require more comprehensive control of their manufacturing
process. |
| MRP Module Integration |
The
Bill of Materials module provides bill detail that is
used by the MAS 90 Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
module. The MRP module provides information to the
purchasing and production departments so that they can
maintain sufficient amounts of materials on hand at all
times. |
| Bar Code Printing |
Production
labels and picking sheets can be customized to print two
types of bar codes. Bar codes and bar code printers must
be predefined using the Bar Code Printer Maintenance in
the MAS 90 Inventory Management module. |
The MAS 90 Bill of Materials module allows you
to easily create and maintain a detailed bill of the
components and miscellaneous charges that make up your
finished items and subassembly components. You can
produce accurate and informative reports detailing bill
structures, component requirements and production
history.The Bill of Materials module is designed to
accommodate the after-the-fact recording of production.
As the production of each finished product is recorded,
the component items used are automatically relieved from
inventory, and the finished products are automatically
received into inventory. Disassembly of finished items
can also be recorded. During Disassembly Entry and
Production Entry, components may be added, deleted or
modified.Products sold in a variety of configurations are
accommodated by a unique Bill Options feature. Using this
feature, components to be added to or subtracted from the
base bill may be specified for each option. When the MAS
90 Sales Order Processing module is integrated, you can
select Bill Options during Sales Order Entry and Invoice
Data Entry.Engineering Change Control and unlimited
revision capabilities are key features of the MAS 90 Bill
of Materials module. The Engineering Change Control
feature facilitates the recording of bill structure
changes, which improves product quality and production
efficiency. A detailed record of engineering changes and
bill revisions may be retained indefinitely, providing a
complete history of the evolution of your products.
