+One-step manufacturing
+======================

+
+Odoo *Manufacturing* allows users to manufacture products using one, two, or three steps. When using
+one-step manufacturing, Odoo creates a manufacturing order (MO), but does not generate transfers for
+the movement of components out of inventory or finished products into stock. Inventory counts still
+update based on the number of components used and products manufactured, but the act of transferring
+them to and from inventory is not tracked.
+
+.. tip::
+   The number of steps used in manufacturing is set at the warehouse level, allowing for each
+   warehouse to use a different number of steps. To change the number of steps used for a specific
+   warehouse, begin by navigating to :menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Warehouses`,
+   and then select a warehouse from the :guilabel:`Warehouses` screen.
+
+   On the :guilabel:`Warehouse Configuration` tab, find the :guilabel:`Manufacture` radio input
+   field, and select one of the three options: :guilabel:`Manufacture (1 step)`, :guilabel:`Pick
+   components and then manufacture (2 steps)`, or :guilabel:`Pick components, manufacture and then
+   store products (3 steps)`.

+
+.. important::
+   Products must be properly configured before they can be manufactured in Odoo. For details on how
+   to do so, see the documentation on how to :ref:`configure a product for manufacturing
+   <manufacturing/management/configure-manufacturing-product>`.
+
+Create manufacturing order
+==========================
+
+To manufacture a product in Odoo *Manufacturing*, begin by navigating to
+:menuselection:`Manufacturing --> Operations --> Manufacturing Orders`, and then click
+:guilabel:`New` to create a new |MO|.
+
+On the new |MO|, select the product to be produced from the :guilabel:`Product` drop-down menu. The
+:guilabel:`Bill of Material` field auto-populates with the associated bill of materials (BoM).
+
+If a product has more than one |BOM| configured for it, the specific |BOM| can be selected in the
+:guilabel:`Bill of Material` field, and the :guilabel:`Product` field auto-populates with the
+associated product.
+
+After a |BOM| has been selected, the :guilabel:`Components` and :guilabel:`Work Orders` tabs
+auto-populate with the components and operations specified on the |BOM|. If additional components or
+operations are required for the |MO| being configured, add them to the :guilabel:`Components` and
+:guilabel:`Work Orders` tabs by clicking :guilabel:`Add a line`.
+
+Process manufacturing order
+===========================
+
+An |MO| is processed by completing all of the work orders listed under its :guilabel:`Work Orders`
+tab. This can be done on the |MO| itself, or from the work order tablet view.
+
+Basic workflow
+--------------
+
+To complete work orders from the |MO| itself, begin by navigating to :menuselection:`Manufacturing
+--> Operations --> Manufacturing Orders`, and then select an |MO|.
+
+On the |MO| page, select the :guilabel:`Work Orders` tab. Once work begins on the first work order
+that needs to be completed, click the :guilabel:`Start` button for that work order. Odoo
+*Manufacturing* then starts a timer that keeps track of how long the work order takes to complete.
+

+
+When the work order is completed, click the :guilabel:`Done` button for that work order. Repeat the
+same process for each work order listed on the :guilabel:`Work Orders` tab.
+
+.. image:: one_step_manufacturing/done-button.png

+   :alt: The Done button for an operation on a manufacturing order.
+
+After completing all of the work orders, click :guilabel:`Produce All` at the top of the screen to
+mark the |MO| as :guilabel:`Done`, and register the manufactured product(s) into inventory.
+
+Tablet view workflow
+--------------------
+
+To complete the work orders for an |MO| using the tablet view, begin by navigating to
+:menuselection:`Manufacturing --> Operations --> Manufacturing Orders`, and then select a
+manufacturing order.
+
+Next, click on the :guilabel:`Work Orders` tab, and then select the :guilabel:`📱 (tablet)` button
+on the line of the first work order to be processed. This opens the tablet view.
+
+.. image:: one_step_manufacturing/tablet-view-button.png
+   :align: center
+   :alt: The tablet view button for a work order on a manufacturing order.
+
+After opening the tablet view, Odoo *Manufacturing* automatically starts a timer that keeps track of
+how long the work order takes to complete. After completing the work order, click the
+:guilabel:`Mark as Done` button in the top-right corner of the tablet view.
+
+Clicking :guilabel:`Mark as Done` while there is at least one more work order left to complete opens
+a page that lists the next work order. Click on that work order to open it in the tablet view.
+
+Once the final work order for the |MO| has been reached, a :guilabel:`Mark as Done and Close MO`
+button appears on the tablet view in addition to the :guilabel:`Mark as Done` button. Click
+:guilabel:`Mark as Done and Close MO` to mark the |MO| as :guilabel:`Done` and register the
+manufactured product(s) into inventory.
+
+It is also possible to complete the final operation while keeping the |MO| open, by clicking
+:guilabel:`Mark as Done`. In this case, the |MO| can be closed later by clicking the
+:guilabel:`Produce All` button on the order.
