A Bill of Materials is a complete list of raw materials, components, and quantities required to produce a finished product. ZYNO supports multi-level BOMs, meaning you can build BOMs for complex products with sub-assemblies and multiple production stages — and the system will automatically calculate material requirements from each level.

ZYNO allows you to create production orders based on confirmed customer orders or sales forecasts, allocate machines and labour per shift, and track work-in-progress in real time. Production managers can adjust schedules, reassign work orders, and monitor output against plan — all from one dashboard.
