Engineering Board

Use this form to graphically view, build, and modify a BOM. The form caption changes to show the BOM type (current, job, or estimate job) and the item or job number.

Note: In addition to the methods listed below, you can launch the Engineering Board from the Engineering Window form. This is a window that provides access and linking between the Engineering Board and the Engineering Workbench within a single form. You can drill down into a BOM right from the Engineering Workbench on the left to see the associated BOM's graphical view on the Engineering Board on the right.

You can launch this form stand-alone or by clicking Engineering Board on these forms:

  • Items
  • Job Orders
  • Estimate Job Orders

When launched from one of the above forms, the associated BOM is loaded onto the Engineering Board form.
