You can create several BoM versions for the same product.
It supports BoMs with multiple levels (one BoM inside another).
You can make “kit” (phantom) BoMs that are assembled only at the time of delivery.
It can calculate the total cost of a product (materials + work operations).
You can connect specific operations to the exact components they use.
