Hi, Is there a way to automate the substituting of items inside a BOM when the stock runs out. 

Like for example, we have apple in the BOM and when apple's inventory runs out, it will substitute Banana inside the BOM.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    For this do customization.

    Create One field in the BOM --> Substitute--> Boolean

    Then After Refreshing the Production Order, check the inventory of Item according to the attached BOM. If Inventory of Apple is not available then consider Second item for that.
