Hi Frank,

We have been through the same problem, and have tried most of them. MiniMRP is pretty good at $180 it can handle the majority of stock control needs including BOMs and shortage forecasting. One of the nicest we tried was Stock It by Numberone systems, which I believe is around £500, but in the end we opted for the much more expensive Sage professional just because it integrated with our back office system best... But never managed to find a free one that could handle bill of materials

Hope this helps.
