The ability to accurately calculate the cost of manufacturing a product is critical when determining
product profitability. Odoo's *Manufacturing* app simplifies this calculation by automatically
product profitability. Odoo's **Manufacturing** app simplifies this calculation by automatically
calculating the cost to complete each manufacturing order (MO), as well as the average production
cost of a product, based on all completed |MOs|.

Odoo's Manufacturing app distinguishes between the *manufacturing order cost* and the *real cost*
of an |MO|.

To set the cost of operating the work center for one hour, enter a value in the :guilabel:`per

:guilabel:`General Information` tab.
To set the operating cost for the work center based on the number of employees working there at a
given time, enter a value in the :guilabel:`per employee` field, located beside the :guilabel:`Cost
per hour` section on the work center's :guilabel:`General Information` tab. For example, if `25.00`
is entered in the :guilabel:`per employee` field, it costs $25.00 per hour for *each* employee
working at the work center.
Note that, if values are entered in both the :guilabel:`per workcenter` *and* :guilabel:`per
employee` fields, the value in the :guilabel:`per workcenter` field takes precedence, and the value
in the :guilabel:`per employee` field is ignored.
To set the hourly cost of each employee that operates the work center, enter a value in the
:guilabel:`per employee` field, located beside the :guilabel:`Cost per hour` section on the work
center's :guilabel:`General Information` tab. For example, if `25.00` is entered in the
:guilabel:`per employee` field, it costs $25.00 per hour for *each* employee working at the work
center.

It is also possible to set a per hour cost for specific employees, by navigating to the
:menuselection:`Employees` app, selecting an employee, clicking the :guilabel:`HR Settings` tab
on their employee form, and entering a value in the :guilabel:`Hourly Cost` field.
The value entered in the :guilabel:`per employee` field is only used to calculate the |MO| cost,
which is the estimated cost of completing the |MO|.
Just like the *per workcenter* field on a work center form, the :guilabel:`Hourly Cost` field on
an employee's form overrides the *per employee* field on a work center form.
The actual cost of completing the |MO| is represented by the real cost. Instead of using the
value entered in the :guilabel:`per employee` field, the real cost is calculated using the hourly
cost specific to each employee.
However, the *per workcenter* field takes precedence over both the *per employee* field on the
workcenter form *and* the :guilabel:`Hourly Cost` field on the employee form.
For example, if the :guilabel:`per employee` cost of a work center is '$50.00', and an employee
with an hourly cost of '$60.00' completes a work order there, the |MO| cost (estimated) is
calculated using the $50/hr cost, while the real cost is calculated using the $60/hr cost.

As detailed in the :ref:`work center cost section <manufacturing/mo-costs/work-center-cost>`
above, the value entered in the :guilabel:`Hourly Cost` field on the employee's form is used to

uses the per employee cost set on each work center's form.
