Hi James, all
This was ready and available upto branches 15.12 of OFBiz, as I have frequently implemented it for craft breweries where recipes for beer and for bottling the beer. OOTB there is a limitation of (showing) 4 digits behind the decimal point shown in a BoM. The key issue is the proportions of the ingredients to produce 1 standard measure of your product. That is the BoM and the basis for each Production Run in OFBiz. In one of our example recipes for 1 hectoliter of beer we have the following - imaginary - ingredients in our BoM: 100 liters of water + 15 % for evaporation (scrap percentage) 20 kilograms of mats 200 grams of hops 1 pack of yeast (starter). And our BoM for 1 bottle (33 cL) of beer (see attached screenshot: 1 bottle 0.0033 hectoliter of beer 1 cap The way to get it working is setting up your manufacturable products and components/ingredients set up properly. It is important to set the - default - quantityUomId on the first screen of the product. The other measure definitions are not used - as far as I can tell - not used in the manufacturing functions. I trust the above helps.
