SOS Inventory Expanded BOM Production Assistant

About

Stop doing BOM math in your head.

Navigating the Expanded BOM report in SOS Inventory can be overwhelming when you’re trying to figure out exactly how many components to order or how many sub-assemblies to start. The Production Assistant does the calculation for you.

How it works:

1. Open any Expanded BOM report in SOS Inventory.  Make sure you expand the subassemblies.

2. After displaying the report, click the floating "Analyze BOM" button.

3. Instantly see a breakdown of:

  -- Assemblies to Build: Every sub-component that needs production to meet the final goal.
  -- Components to Purchase: Exactly what's missing from your current stock.
  -- Financial Impact: A total cost estimate for the entire production run.

Whether you're managing a simple build or a 10-level deep complex assembly, this tool ensures you never miss a component again.

Note: This tool does not store or transmit any SOS Inventory data; it simply reads the page you are currently viewing to perform the calculations locally in the browser.
