Many industries use bill of materials to build products or assemble projects. The two main types of BOMs are manufacturing and engineering.

A BOM is essential in materials requirement planning (MRP)<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Configurable Bill of Materials\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Sometimes used in manufacturing or assembly, a configurable BOM is a type of manufacturing bill of materials, used to customize or finalize finished products or goods. It will include any labeling, packaging, or specification needed to meet a customer order. This could mean placing a specific color case on a mobile phone or labeling a product with specific stickers that are retailer specific.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Engineering Bill of Materials (EBOM)\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Designed to help the development stage of a product, an engineering BOM defines the design and use of a product. EBOMs are more often used to build a product from components as specified by an engineer. It might include the raw materials needed as well as how those individual parts should fit together as the product was intended to be built and assembled. An EBOM is a technical document that can include figures and drawings from the engineers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Sales Bill of Materials (SBOM)\u00a0<\/span><\/i><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A bill of materials that lists products as ordered by a customer is called a Sales Bill of Materials.
