A subassembly is a manufactured product which is intended to be used as
|
|
a component of another manufactured product. You may wish to employ
|
|
sub-assemblies to simplify a complex BoM, to more accurately represent
|
|
your manufacturing flow, or to use the same subassembly in multiple
|
|
BoMs. A BoM that employs subassemblies is often referred to as a
|
|
multi-level BoM.
|
|
|
|
Multi-level bills of materials in Odoo are accomplished by creating a
|
|
top-level BoM and subassembly BoMs. Next, the procurement route of the
|
|
subassembly product is defined. This ensures that every time a
|
|
manufacturing order for the top-level product is created, a
|
|
manufacturing order for each subassembly is created as well.
|
|
|
|
Configure the Top -Level Product BoM
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To configure a multi-level BoM, create the top-level product and its
|
|
BoM. Include any subassemblies in the list of components. Create a BoM
|
|
for each subassembly as you would for any product.

Configure the Subassembly Product Data
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
On the product form of the subassembly, you must select the routes
|
|
**Manufacture** and **Make To Order**. The **Manufacture**
|
|
route takes precedence over the **Buy** route, so selecting the
|
|
latter will have no effect.

If you would like to be able to purchase the subassembly in addition to
|
|
manufacturing it, select **Can be Purchased**. All other fields on
|
|
the subassembly product form may be configured according to your
|
|
preference.
