Variants BOM Management

|
||||
Managing BoMs for product variants
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo allows you to use one bill of materials for multiple variants of
|
||||
the same product. To activate variants, simply go to :menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings
|
||||
--> Variants`.
|
||||
Odoo allows one bill of materials (BoM) to be used for multiple variants of the same product.
|
||||
Having a consolidated BoM for a product with variants saves time by preventing the need to manage
|
||||
multiple BoMs.

||||

|
||||
Activate product variants
|
||||
=========================
|
||||
|
||||
You will then be able to specify which BOM component lines are to be used in
|
||||
the manufacture of each product variant. You may specify multiple
|
||||
variants for each line. If no variant is specified on a component line,
|
||||
then this component will be used in the BOM of all variants.
|
||||
To activate variants, simply navigate to :menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Settings
|
||||
--> Products`, and then enable the :guilabel:`Variants` option. After that, click :guilabel:`Save`
|
||||
to apply the setting. For more information on configuring product variants, refer to :doc:`this
|
||||
page <../../../sales/sales/products_prices/products/variants>`.
|
||||
|
||||
When defining variant BoMs on a line-item-basis, the **Product
|
||||
Variant** field in the main section of the BoM should be left blank as shown
|
||||
below. This field is used when creating a BoM for one specific variant
|
||||
of a product only.

Apply BoM components to product variants
|
||||
========================================
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Next, create a new BoM or edit an existing one by going to :menuselection:`Manufacturing -->
|
||||
Products --> Bills of Materials`. Then, click :guilabel:`Edit`. The :guilabel:`Apply on Variants`
|
||||
option to assign components to specific product variants on the BoM is available once the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Variants` setting is activated from the :guilabel:`Inventory` application. If the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Apply on Variants` field is not immediately visible, activate it from the additional
|
||||
options menu.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the same principle applies for the configuration
|
||||
of operations.

|
||||
Each component can be assigned to multiple variants. Components with no variants specified are used
|
||||
in every variant of the product. The same principle applies when configuring operations and
|
||||
by-products.
|
||||
|
||||
And for the production of by-products.
|
||||
When defining variant BoMs by component assignment, the :guilabel:`Product Variant` field in the
|
||||
main section of the BoM should be left blank, as shown below. This field is used only when creating
|
||||
a BoM specifically for one product variant.
