By-products tab
The By-products tab of a bill of materials contains the list of by-products that are created together with the finished product.
By-products are additional outputs of production operations. For example, metal shavings are by-products of the bushing production.
This tab is only available if Process type is set to Production.
To learn about the By-products tab fields, see the following table:
