Similar to the material master, a material’s BOM is used extensively in various areas of the supply chain, including planning and costing. A BOM is a formally structured list of components that you need to use to produce a material. These components may be raw materials or packing materials procured directly from vendors or sub assemblies produced in-house.

You can have a production BOM and also a sales BOM. In a sales BOM, the system explodes the components and makes them an integral part of sales processing
