Hi:
I believe that it is possible to conduct process manufacturing in Business Central and, specifically, to contain food recipes within Production Bills of Material.
Are there other opinions?
Thanks!
John
Hi John,
Although technically you can use a BOM as a recipe, it does not really satisfy the needs of the food manufacturing industry out of the box. The Production BOM is what it appears - there is no underlying ability to add recipes to it.
AppSource has a bunch of food manufacturing specific addons for Business Central that allow you to separate the recipe for the actual product from the BOM used to package it. They also allow you to record in process quality data, record equipment quality testing (bio testing and all that stuff needed in food), handle lab/kitchen product, manage batch production and the date code assignments etc.
I would suggest looking into those.
