Engineering and sourcing

Make component decisions with the BOM in view.

01

Product-to-part structure

Model products, boards, and parts in a multi-level BOM. Keep quantities, reference designators, revisions, and where-used together.

Explore the capability
02

Approved alternates

Attach approved substitute parts to each BOM line, so sourcing can find the alternatives accepted for that specific use.

03

Component lifecycle

Record lifecycle states and successor parts. Identify the BOM lines that still use a superseded component before planning a change.

Explore the capability
04

Cost and evidence

Roll unit costs through the structure. Link controlled specifications and test reports to the product, with required document revisions preserved in release evidence.

Your model, your workflow

A starting point you can make your own.

Define the fields each component needs, connect manufacturer parts to your internal records, and share common attributes through polymorphic base types. Your product model can evolve with the design.

ManyRows supports products across industries. Use a starter template, extend the model, or build your own from an empty project.

Common questions

Can I import an existing BOM?

Yes. CSV import supports column mapping and preview for record lists. Indented BOM import uses levels and quantities to build a multi-level structure.

How are approved alternates managed?

Alternates belong to a specific BOM line. This lets the same component have different approved replacements depending on its role in the design.

Does ManyRows supply live distributor data?

Your team maintains lifecycle information, approved alternates, and supporting evidence in ManyRows. Live distributor data requires a separate source or integration.

Where can I find pricing?

Review the plans and included capacity on the pricing page. You can start with a 7-day trial without a card.
