BOMs Away! Structuring Your Manufacturing Setup in Business Central
Session Overview: Production BOMs are the backbone of every manufacturing process in Business Central, but too often they’re built on assumptions or legacy structures that limit accuracy and scalability. In this session, we’ll break down the full spectrum of Production BOM design, starting with the fundamentals and progressing into advanced concepts that support real‑world manufacturing complexity.
You’ll learn how to structure BOMs for clarity, flexibility, and long‑term success, whether you’re managing simple assemblies or multi‑level, variant‑rich production environments. We’ll explore common pitfalls and best‑practices.
If you’ve ever wondered why a BOM behaves the way it does, or how to build one that truly reflects how your products are made, this session will give you the tools, insights, and confidence to elevate your manufacturing setup.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the full structure of a Production BOM
- Identify common BOM pitfalls and inefficiencies
- Apply best‑practice BOM design principles
