*Dear OFBiz Community,*

We’re excited to share our first user manual post on Confluence, designed
to help beginner users set up a Bill of Materials (BOM) in Apache OFBiz.

You can read it here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/4gq9F

We will be adding more articles In this series.

We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback!


Regards

Ashraful Hasan
