Using MYOB for serious manufacturing control
Any serious manufacturing control system relies on various Bill Of Material (BOM).
In MYOB to print out a BOM one has to go REPORTS/STOCK/AUTOBUILD/CUSTOMISE/DISPLAY/PRINT which is rather long winded. More generally they need to get print buttons on all their screens - there are many other screens which are useful but which can only be printed by going through a tortuous report generation process.
Similarly any serious BOM will include all sorts of sub assemblies which typically form a nested hierarchy. When one prints off the BOM to give a technician or storekeeper it would be better if all the nested items were available via a collapse / expand trigger (i.e. a +/- toggle). At the moment MYOB prints only one layer at a time, so the user has to manually create the report for each layer of sub assembly.
