Jacopo,
I don't see a problem with checking stock availability via getting the components from the
production run (Job Shop), and doing a hand-calculated BOM simulation. Every production run is
linked to a sales order, so we know exactly what configuration ties to which sales order.
Well, I suppose it'd be nice to be able to key in some popular configuration and have BOM
simulation tell me if I'm adequately stocked to meet popular demand.
