Model your products as they really are, not as a rigid PLM tool insists. Define your own types, then switch on multi-level BOMs, change control, costing and quality checks per type. A materials list stays a plain list while a finished good routes every edit through review. Fast grid, full API, cloud-hosted.
Product data lives in a spreadsheet nobody can govern, or in a PLM system that
costs six figures and still cannot describe what you make.
ManyRows is the middle. Define your own types, a Part, a Fabric, a Formula, a
Finished Good, then turn on the heavy parts per type:
- Multi-level BOMs
- Change requests: edits stage in a working copy, get approved, land in one act
- Costing that rolls up through the structure
- Quality checks, compare, and an API over everything you model
The lesson while building it was to make all of that optional. The first version
gave every record a BOM and an approval step. Real catalogues do not want one. A
materials list should stay a plain list while a finished good routes every edit
through review, and that switch belongs to you.
