Machine shop tutorial?

Is there a tutorial on how to enter instructions for machined and plated 
parts? In the homebrew MRP that I'm replacing, a plated part is made from 
an unplated machined part that might pass through several CNC machines, and 
is made from some quantity of a particular raw material. How would I build 
that up in OFBiz? (I figure that, given such a tutorial, I can enter some 
sample parts and then dump the system to XML see the structure. Then I can 
script up loading the rest of my parts and raw materials rapidly.)

IIRW, there are not been new major features implemented since.

Thanks, I ordered a copy and it should arrive late next week. It was 
written in 2013 so I'm hoping it will still be relevant to the current 
version. I expect it should at least be good for explaining core concepts 
even if the current implementation has moved on and added a lot of 
functionality.

Maybe it could help?
