Bills of Materials with live stock status

Build the BOM once, and every line tells you what’s really on the shelf — on hand, available after allocations, and what’s short. No more printing a BOM, walking the stockroom, and finding out mid-job that you’re missing a part.

Every line, checked against live inventory

Each component carries its quantity, unit cost, and reference designator — and Axis computes availability against current stock in real time. Green is covered, amber is tight, red is short before you ever start the build.

A controlled lifecycle — draft, approved, released

A draft BOM is fully editable. Approve it and it locks but stays revertible. Release it and it’s live on the floor — feeding work orders and material requests against the exact revision you signed off.

A BOM that does more than list parts

Built around how shops actually manage component lists — costs, revisions, availability, and traceability included.

Live stock status per line

Every component shows on-hand and available quantities against current inventory — so material readiness is computed automatically, not guessed at on the shop floor.

Cost rollups

Enter unit prices and Axis rolls up total material cost and per-unit cost, with the top cost drivers surfaced so you know where the money is before you quote.

Three-stage lifecycle

Draft is editable, Approved is locked but revertible, Released is live on the floor. Nothing reaches a work order until the BOM has been signed off.

Revisions and where-used

Every revision is preserved with its own line set. The Where Used tab shows every build plan and project that references the assembly, so a change never blindsides another job.

Per-line sourcing

Flag each line as from stock, direct purchase, or not tracked — with reference designators, scrap factors, and supplier notes carried right on the component.

CSV and PDF export

Export any BOM to CSV for purchasing or to a clean, revision-stamped PDF for the bench. Duplicate a proven BOM to start the next assembly in seconds.

Connected

The BOM is where inventory, build plans, and work orders meet

A released BOM feeds material readiness into build plans and allocates real stock when a work order is created. The component list, the parts on the shelf, and the job on the floor stay in lockstep — no re-keying, no stale spreadsheet.
