OpenBOM New Webinar – Formulas and Calculations 2.0

I’m very much excited about the restarting of OpenBOM webinars. If you never saw OpenBOM webinars before, check it out here. This week, we’re restarting our educational webinar series with a set of webinars about OpenBOM. During these webinars, we are going to give you a deep introduction in how OpenBOM helps you to manage product information, product lifecycle, collaborate with contractors and suppliers as well as manage downstream processes such as vendor and purchasing. 

Also, I am sure you are interested to learn more about PLM (product’s life cycle management). PLM offers the greatest management concepts both for startups and for large companies. So what will we particularly learn in the webinar?

Since that time, we have introduced many new features and enhancements of OpenBOM calculations services. Here is a shortlist:

1- Formula in catalogs

2- Support for formulas in templates

3- Automatic formula in rows

Here are a few blogs outlining these new features: 

How to manage packaging units and use catalog formulas

Templates and formulas enhancements 

Formula support for catalogs

In this new webinar, Steve Hess, director of the user experience at OpenBOM makes a deep dive into new formula and calculations features. Watch the video:
