Manage BOMs, routings and production master data in MES
Accevo manufacturing master data management defines how products are made on the shop floor. Manage items and materials, bills of materials, routings, factory structure, machines, employees and production orders in one production model with versions and revisions.
Turn product definitions into executable production data
MES needs more than a product code. Accevo connects each item with its BOM, routing, operations, equipment and production parameters so operators receive the correct process version.
Define the product
Create items, materials, units, versions, revisions and their production relationships.
Build the process
Connect BOM components with routings, operations, machines, tempos and instructions.
Release the order
Use approved master data to create and execute production orders and sub-orders.
Key benefits of manufacturing master data management
Consistent BOMs
Use approved components, quantities and versions for planning and execution.
Controlled routings
Standardize operation sequence, equipment assignment and expected production tempo.
Fewer setup errors
Give production the correct product, process and parameter data for each order.
Control the BOM management process
Create, version, validate and use the bill of materials in production execution.
01
Create the item
Define the product or semi-finished item, code, unit and applicable version or revision.
02
Build the BOM
Add components, quantities, conversion factors and the operation where each material is used.
03
Link the routing
Assign operations, machines, planned times and other execution requirements.
04
Use in production
Release approved definitions to orders, material checks, instructions and reporting.
Coordinate routings, factory structure and production orders
Production master data connects the product model with real equipment and order execution. Accevo supports detailed routings, factory hierarchy and order relationships without turning MES into a generic enterprise MDM tool.
Routings and technology
Define operations, sequence, equipment, expected tempo and the correct routing version.
Factory structure
Model sites, departments, lines, machines, workstations and their production relationships.
Production orders
Create orders with quantities and dates, generate sub-orders and visualize operations on a Gantt chart.
Extend the model with Master Data Advanced
Master Data Advanced adds the production definitions needed for more controlled paperless and automated workflows. It connects product structure with instructions, labels, quality limits and machine settings.
- Bill of materials versions and product revisions
- Activities for paperless step-by-step instructions
- Labelling rules and serial-numbered products
- Quality limits and inspection parameters
- Machine setpoints linked to the product or operation
Manufacturing master data in one production model
Keep the definitions required by MES connected and ready for execution.
Items and materials
BOM management
Routings
Factory and machines
Employees and roles
Production orders
Use production orders built from approved data
Plan and release work without rebuilding the product and process definition for every order.
- Order definition: Set the item, quantity, dates, routing version and BOM version.
- Sub-orders: Create related orders for semi-finished products required by the main order.
- Gantt visibility: View planned operations, start and finish times and their equipment assignments.

BOM and manufacturing master data - FAQ
Manufacturing master data describes products, materials, BOMs, routings, equipment and other relatively stable definitions used to execute production. It gives MES the context needed for orders and operator workflows.
BOM management controls the components, quantities, units, versions and product relationships that make up a manufactured item. In MES, BOM data can also be linked to the operation where a component is consumed.
Yes. Items, BOMs and routings can use versions or revisions so production orders reference the approved definition required for the product.
A routing defines the production operations and equipment sequence. BOM positions can be linked to the relevant operation so material consumption and execution follow the same production model.
Yes. The system can create related production orders for semi-finished products required by the main order.
No. Accevo focuses on manufacturing master data used by MES and shop-floor execution. Enterprise MDM platforms usually govern broader corporate domains such as customers and suppliers.
