How to process a manufacturing order

Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
There are two basic ways to manage manufacturing in Odoo. The first way
|
|
manages work with one document only. This document is the
|
|
**manufacturing order**. The second way uses additional documents to
|
|
give you more precise control over the manufacturing process. In this
|
|
way, **Manufacturing orders** are divided into one or more steps
|
|
defined by **work orders**, performed in an order defined by
|
|
**routings**.
|
|
|
|
How to manage manufacturing without routings
|
|
============================================
|
|
|
|
You will most likely use manufacturing orders without routings if all
|
|
the work to produce your product is performed in one place, by one
|
|
person, in one step, and/or you do not need the level of granular
|
|
control afforded by work orders and routings.
|
|
|
|
Managing your operations in this way is the default behavior in Odoo.
|
|
There are two basic phases from planning to production:
|
|
|
|
1. Create manufacturing orders
|
|
|
|
2. Record Production
|
|
|
|
How to manage manufacturing with routings and work orders
|
|
=========================================================
|
|
|
|
To use work orders and routings, you will need to enable the option
|
|
**Manage production by work orders** From
|
|
:menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings`. You will then be able to add
|
|
routings to bills of materials, and configure some additional related
|
|
fields. You will also be able to create **work centers**, the
|
|
locations at which work orders are performed.
|
|
|
|
When manufacturing with routings and work orders, each work order is
|
|
scheduled individually. You will also have access to time and capacity
|
|
planning, and reports on costing and efficiency on a work center level.
|
|
|
|
Manufacturing using routings can be broken down into several steps. When
|
|
configuring your BoM, you will need to add a routing defining the
|
|
component work orders. After planning the manufacturing order, you will
|
|
have the added step of scheduling work orders.
|
|
|
|
The workflow is thus divided into three basic phases, as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. Create manufacturing orders
|
|
|
|
2. Schedule the associated work orders.
|
|
|
|
3. Perform the scheduled work and record production.
