Hi,

Sales BOM:

The sales bill of materials represents a finished product which is assembled at the sales stage.

Sales bill of materials; both the finished product and the components appear as separate items in the sales order document.

For example, the finished product can be a set of garden furniture.

the sales bill of materials you do not manage the finished product as an inventory item, but rather as a sales item. The components can also be sales and stock items in their own right. When you create the delivery to dispatch the customeru2019s order, the components are backflush issued from stock.

The components for Sales bills of material must be sales items.

production BOM:

The Production Bill of Materials represents a finished product (parent )made up of different inventory components (children). During the production process, you turn the components into the finished product.

Components in the production bill of materials are physical items (for example a screw, a wooden board, a measured quantity of lubricant or paint), or virtual objects (one work hour).

Rgds,
