Odoo solves several challenges and provides large scale benefits to manufacturers to manage growth, increase productivity, reduce cost, and increase efficiencies across the production process.

  • Manage your products into assembly lines or manual assembly.
  • Launch production of items needed in the final assembly of your products.
  • Disassemble a finished product and recuperate components.
  • Get a clear view of your whole planning and easily reschedule manufacturing.
  • Have access to all available resources and plan ahead with your production.
  • Set a Bill of Materials within another to manufacture components of a product in another Bill of Materials.
  • Create new routings for work orders to sequence your production depending on the routing used.
  • Allow your products to evolve and add configurable options when creating orders.
  • Whether you use lots, serial numbers, or unidentified products, you can use barcodes to speed up operations at every step.
  • Use make-to-order rules, minimum stock rules or the master production schedule to automate procurements. Let the scheduler compute everything for you. Use routes, constraints, and lead time to optimise inventory level, avoid shortages and overstocking.
