A Build Order is used by the Manufacturing Software to auto generate Purchase Orders to build an assembly.
It is similar to a Work order where you select the top level Bill of Materials and the quantity to build.
Then the Inventory user can push a button and the software will read through all the BOMS create a total list of items
and compair the required quantity to the current Inventory quantity then generate Purchase Orders for the remaining quantity needed.
When creating the purchase orders the Build Order will group all the items purchased from suppliers on the single Purchase Order.
