PLUS BOMGen is Bill of Material Generation software that
estimates the material quantity required of various components that
go into making of various modular furniture products, based on the
data provided by the RFQ (Request for Quote). Also, it will be able
to give the cost of processes involved and thereby generate a quote
or proforma invoice for the project. Once a quote is generated, the
status is set to "generated" and changes as it moves
through the cycle of being converted to an Order.

The option to modify the quote
is available. Changing just a few parameters, one can observe
the changes in the quote and then finalize on the best possible
changes. The software keeps track of all the revisions made to
the quote.
|
PLUS BOMGen has a feature -
copy-paste following the standard windows command (CTRL-C to copy
and CTRL-V to paste ). Select the columns that need to be
copied from MS Excel worksheet, copy and paste into the required
columns in PLUS BOMGen. The data gets copied with minimal
chances of errors in transfer.

PLUS BOMGen integrates with
PLUS 2D and PLUS 1D seamlessly. It starts a PLUS 2D job,
transfers the required data to PLUS 2D, and after optimization
in PLUS 2D and exporting the optimized data, again imports the
required information to provide the optimized quantity of various
material required, be they two-dimensional or
one-dimensional.

- Analyze quotes that were not converted to orders.
PLUS BOMGen keeps track of
quotes which have not been further processed. It has reports
that will highlight the unconverted quotes for further
analysis.

which is meant for this purpose. This allows you to select a
set of customers based on some criteria and allow information to be
passed on to them in form of standard letters or formats.

product library with sample products which you may use
directly. You can add your own products by providing the
necessary information. You can also create a new product as a
combination of products already present in the product
library. |

certain characteristics of all products within a certain area.
For example, you will be able to change the material from MDF 1/2
inch A quality to MDF 1/2 inch B quality for all items where the
former is being used. Similar is for color. |
