2. What is GUI ?
A graphical user interface (GUI) is a human-
computer interface (i.e., a way for humans to
interact with computers) that
uses windows, icons and menus and which
can be manipulated by a mouse (and often
to a limited extent by a keyboard as well)
3. Advantages Of GUIs
A major advantage of GUIs is that they make
computer operation more intuitive, and thus
easier to learn and use.
Example:- it is much easier for a new user to
move a file from one directory to another by
dragging its icon with the mouse than by
having to remember and type seemingly
arcane commands to accomplish the same
task.
4. Bills OF Material
In the world of product design and
manufacturing, the bill of materials
(BOM) is a critical product information
record for both engineering and
manufacturing teams. Managing BOM
with the wrong tools can cause product
quality issues, delays and compliance
failures.
5. GUI-Bills Of Material
A Bills of materials (BOM) is a list of raw
materials, sub assemblies, Intermediate
assemblies,subcomponents,components,parts&
the quantities of each needed to manufacture
an end product.
No physical dimension is described in a BOM.
The system uses BOM to specify how an end-
item is constructed from various components& it
uses MRP calculations to specify the amount
that is needed of each component for an end-
item based on Production plan & BOM for the
end-item.
6. BOM Reports-Uses In Decision
Making
Validate accuracy & currency of Supplier
names & part numbers.
Evaluate product configurations across the
enterprise to eliminate redundant parts &
suppliers.
Identify obsolescence & counterfeit risks as
early as possible to avoid production
interruptions.
Automate analysis & resolution process.
