Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A system and method of synchronizing recipes and bills of materials (BOM). An approved recipe is parameterized in a planning interface. A BOM is synchronized with the parameterized recipe. The BOM is then displayed in a graphical user interface to allow a user to modify by a resolve conflict present during synchronization.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: parameterizing an approved recipe in a planning interface of a computer; synchronizing a bill of materials (BOM) with the approved recipe based at least in part on the parameterization; displaying the BOM in a graphical user interface permitting user modification of the BOM; and marking the BOM as not synchronized responsive to a change of the recipe. 2. The method of claim 1 further comprising: automatically applying the parameterization to the changed recipe in synchronizing the changed recipe. 3. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to: parameterize an approved recipe in a planning interface of a computer; synchronize a bill of materials (BOM) with the approved recipe based at least in part on the parameterization; display the BOM in a graphical user interface permitting user modification of the BOM; and mark the BOM as not synchronized responsive to a change of the recipe. 4. The computer readable medium of claim 3 further containing instructions causing the processor to: synchronize the changed recipe; and automatically apply the parameterization to the changed recipe in synchronizing the changed recipe.
