Configure
In order to manufacture a product in MAQSU Manufacturing, the product must be properly configured. Doing so consists of enabling the Manufacturing route and configuring a bill of materials (BoM) for the product. Once these steps are completed, the product is selectable when creating a new manufacturing order.
Activate the Manufacture route
The Manufacture route is activated for each product on its own product page. To do so, begin by navigating to . Then, select an existing product, or create a new one by clicking Create.
On the product page, select the Inventory tab, then enable the Manufacture checkbox in the Routes section. This tells MAQSU the product can be manufactured.
Configure a bill of materials (BoM)
Next, a BoM must be configured for the product so MAQSU knows how it is manufactured. A BoM is a list of the components and operations required to manufacture a product.
To create a BoM for a specific product, navigate to , then select the product. On the product page, click the Bill of Materials smart button at the top of the page, then select New to configure a new BoM.
On the BoM, the Product field auto-populates with the product. In the Quantity field, specify the number of units that the BoM produces.
Add a component to the BoM by selecting the Components tab and clicking Add a line. Select a component from the Component drop-down menu, then enter the quantity in the Quantity field. Continue adding components on new lines until all components have been added.
