Synchronization of recipe structures and bill of materials including the adjustment to manufacturing requirements
View Patent ↗A system and method of synchronizing recipes and bills of materials (BOM). An approved recipe is parameterized in a planning interface. A BOM is synchronized with the parameterized recipe. The BOM is then displayed in a graphical user interface to allow a user to modify by a resolve conflict present during synchronization.
1. A method comprising:
parameterizing an approved recipe in a planning interface of a computer;
synchronizing a bill of materials (BOM) with the approved recipe based at least in part on the parameterization;
displaying the BOM in a graphical user interface permitting user modification of the BOM; and
marking the BOM as not synchronized responsive to a change of the recipe.
2. The method of claim 1 further comprising:
automatically applying the parameterization to the changed recipe in synchronizing the changed recipe.
3. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
parameterize an approved recipe in a planning interface of a computer;
synchronize a bill of materials (BOM) with the approved recipe based at least in part on the parameterization;
display the BOM in a graphical user interface permitting user modification of the BOM; and
mark the BOM as not synchronized responsive to a change of the recipe.
4. The computer readable medium of claim 3 further containing instructions causing the processor to:
synchronize the changed recipe; and
automatically apply the parameterization to the changed recipe in synchronizing the changed recipe.
