How to Manage Manufacturing Order Overview in Odoo18

This video provides a high-level overview of the Manufacturing Order (MO) process in Odoo18, showing how to transform raw materials into finished products.

• Creating an MO: The video demonstrates how to create a new Manufacturing Order by selecting a product. Odoo automatically pulls the “Bill of Materials” (BoM) to show which components are needed.
• Checking Availability: The video highlights the “Check Availability” feature, which uses color coding (green for in-stock, red for out-of-stock) to show if the raw materials are ready in the warehouse.
• Work Orders and Operations: The narrator explains how to track the actual labor through “Work Orders,” allowing workers to start and stop timers to record the time spent on each production step.
• Producing the Goods: Once production is complete, clicking the “Produce All” or “Record Production” button updates the stock, increasing the finished product count and decreasing the raw material count.
• Costing Analysis: The summary concludes by showing the “Cost Analysis” report, which breaks down the total cost of the product based on material costs and labor time recorded.
