Heads up – OpenBOM new formula editor

Formulas are important. After all, Bill of Materials is a recipe of the product and calculation and rollups are big part of main BOM features. At OpenBOM we allow to create formulas that operates on text, number and currency properties.

I’m excited to give you a very first and very early preview of what changes we are planning to do soon in Formula Editor. This is something that many people asked us – to be able to edit formulas.

So, it is coming. Check this video fore more information.

Conclusion

We are focusing how to simplify calculations and formulas. The first step is editable formula. More coming. Please stay tuned…

Best, Oleg

PS. Let’s get to know each other better. If you live in the Greater Boston area, I invite you for a coffee together (coffee is on me). If not nearby, let’s have a virtual coffee session — I will figure out how to send you a real coffee.
