• Key Concepts: 
  An imploded bill of material (BOM) is a type of BOM used in SAP Complex Assembly Manufacturing (MFG-CAM). It is a hierarchical structure that shows the components and sub-components of a product, and the quantity of each component required to make the product. It also shows the relationship between components and sub-components. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The imploded BOM is used to define the structure of a product, and to calculate the cost of production. It can be used to determine the quantity of components needed for production, as well as the cost of each component. It can also be used to track changes in the structure of a product over time. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an imploded BOM, it is important to ensure that all components and sub-components are accurately listed. This will ensure that the cost of production is accurately calculated. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any changes made to the structure of a product over time, as this can affect the cost of production.
