The efficient and fast management of the Bill of Materials, is one of the deepest and critical activity for companies that operate with a wide variety and range of items to produce.

While the correct and precise definition of a Bill of Materials lays the foundation for a subsequent well structured and managed production, the waste of time to devote to the insertion of components and routing steps becomes progressively higher in proportion to the increasing of complexity and repetitiveness of them.

Time used in these activities, sometimes repetitive and costly, is then irretrievably subtracted to planning and management of production processes.

Everyone knows that Mago is able to ensure, through a proper functionality of copy, to automatically generate a bill of material starting by the selection and subsequent modification of an existing one. This simple option allows to a non-expert operator to insert a new bill of material in few simple steps starting from the strictly necessary changes to apply to it.

But perhaps not everyone knows that... even during the insertion of a new article, representing a finished or semi-finished product, enabling the proper option in the Bill of Materials parameters, Mago.net automatically generates the corresponding Bill of Materials basic structure.

The close relationship between function of logistics, inventory and production is now emphasized by a new direct interface that allows the automatic control of all the items to be produced since their creation and optimizes the timing of the separate insertion inheriting  the basic data by inventory master.
Simply by adding the appropriate components and routing steps, it is possible to complete the desired Bill of Materials and ensure a great synergy between logistics and manufacturing modules including the efficiency of a single operator qualified to manage cross-sector industry activities.

Another point more to the Mago.net flexibility!

Inventory management and quantity available in stock, purchased, sold, etc. are the most important information for a company.

Mago.net is able to save, either for the general inventory than for the single storages several values. For statistical reasons, there may be the need to manage for particular types of items, other balances, related to particular operations, such as one would like to see the total quantities that are out for trial.

Everyone knows that Mago has a complete and efficient management of "traditional" balances for the entire stock and single storages, and that is able to carry forward the balances from one year to the next one by simply executing the Inventory Closing.

But perhaps not everyone knows that ... every company that uses Mago.net has the possibility to freely define according to their own needs 5 additional custom quantities, which may be associated with the description their prefer. To Custom Quantities we can associate in the inventory reason the necessary action, if for example they want to take into account the items out for trial it is possible to sum the quantity and value when posting the delivery note for trial and then subtract when the same trial is returned.

To know in detail the potential of the Custom Quantities function, please contact your dealer reference and in addition if you are a M.L.U. subscriber, go to our site and follow the course NON EXISTING PAGEMago.net – Update Logistics Area 2.13, Custom Quantities.
