Manage semi-finished products
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
In Odoo, you can use subassembly products to simplify a complex *Bill
|
|
of Materials* or to represent your manufacturing flow more accurately.
|
|
A *subassembly product* is a manufactured product that is used as a
|
|
component to make another one.
|
|
|
|
A *BoM* that employs *subassemblies* is referred to as a multi-level
|
|
BoM. Those are accomplished by creating a *top-level BoM* and
|
|
*subassembly ones*. This process requires a route that will ensure
|
|
that every time a manufacturing order for the top-level product is
|
|
created, another one will be for subassemblies.
|
|
|
|
Configure the Subassembly Product
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
To configure a *multi-level BoM*, you will need a top-level product
|
|
but also its subassemblies. The first step is to create a product form
|
|
for each of the subassemblies. Select the routes *Manufacture* and
|
|
*Replenish on Order*. Now, hit save.

|
In the *Bill of Materials* menu, under *Master Data*, create a new
|
|
*Bill of Materials*. Choose the product you just created and add its
|
|
components.

Configure the Main BoM
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
Now, you can configure the top-level product and its *BoM*. Include
|
|
any subassemblies in the list of components.

|
|
Now, each time you will plan a manufacturing order for the top-level
|
|
product, a manufacturing order will be created for the subassembly one.
|
|
Then, you will have to manufacture the subassembly in order to make it
|
|
available before manufacturing the finished product.
