Odoo ERP for Manufacturing

Manage production, materials, inventory, purchasing, quality, maintenance, and sales through one integrated Odoo ERP. From MRP and BOMs to work orders and shop-floor operations, Odoo gives manufacturers a clear view of production, material availability, and operational progress.

Configure Odoo around your manufacturing processes—not the other way around. Coordinate procurement, production planning, inventory, equipment, quality, and customer demand across every stage of your operation, from raw-material sourcing to finished-goods delivery.

Odoo Manufacturing ERP for Connected Production

odoo-manufacturing-erp

Odoo connects manufacturing with the business operations that support production. Manage manufacturing orders, BOMs, work orders, work centers, production planning, inventory, procurement, quality, maintenance, traceability, and manufacturing costs within one ERP environment.

Each stage works with the information required by the next, helping production, procurement, warehouse, quality, and sales teams coordinate operations from material procurement through finished-goods delivery.

Odoo Manufacturing Modules for Your Business

Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP)

Odoo MRP helps manage manufacturing orders, production planning, scheduling, work orders, and manufacturing operations. The Master Production Schedule can also support longer-term planning based on forecasted demand and existing manufacturing and purchase orders.

Use Odoo MRP to:

  • Plan manufacturing orders
  • Schedule production
  • Organize production resources
  • Monitor manufacturing progress
  • Manage production capacity
  • Analyze production performance

Bill of Materials (BOM)

A Bill of Materials defines the components and operations required to manufacture a product. Odoo supports multi-level BOMs, product variants, operations, and routing configurations.

Manage:

  • Raw materials and components
  • Multi-level BOMs
  • Product variants
  • Manufacturing operations
  • Component quantities
  • Production routes

Work Orders & Work Centers

Work orders divide manufacturing into defined operations, while work centers provide a structure for scheduling, capacity planning, equipment, costs, and efficiency. Odoo can also use work-order dependencies to control the sequence in which operations are performed.

Manage:

  • Production operations
  • Work centers
  • Operation sequences
  • Work-order dependencies
  • Production time
  • Capacity and efficiency

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)

Odoo PLM helps manage product changes and BOM versions through engineering change orders and approval workflows. It can maintain version history so teams can track changes to products and manufacturing structures.

Use PLM for:

  • Engineering change orders
  • BOM revisions
  • Version control
  • Product improvements
  • Change approvals
  • Manufacturing documentation

Quality Management

Quality management can be integrated into manufacturing operations through quality control points, quality checks, instructions, and quality alerts. This allows quality activities to become part of the production workflow rather than a separate process.

Manage:

  • Quality control points
  • Quality checks
  • Quality alerts
  • Inspection activities
  • Production-related quality issues

Maintenance Management

Odoo Maintenance supports preventive and corrective maintenance for manufacturing equipment. Maintenance requests can be scheduled and tracked alongside production operations.

Manage:

  • Preventive maintenance
  • Corrective maintenance
  • Equipment records
  • Maintenance requests
  • Maintenance scheduling
  • Maintenance performance

Inventory Management

Manufacturing depends on the availability and traceability of raw materials, components, work-in-progress, and finished products. Odoo connects manufacturing with inventory operations and supports lot and serial number tracking for manufactured products.

Manage:

  • Raw materials
  • Components
  • Finished goods
  • Stock movements
  • Lot and serial numbers
  • Product traceability

Manufacturing-related inventory transfers

Purchase Management

Connect procurement with production requirements so purchasing teams can manage the materials needed for manufacturing. Odoo’s manufacturing planning can consider purchase orders and forecasted demand when planning replenishment.

Manage:

  • Raw-material purchasing
  • Vendor orders
  • Component replenishment
  • Procurement planning
  • Purchase-to-production coordination

Sales Management

Sales demand can connect with manufacturing and inventory operations. This helps businesses align customer orders with production and fulfillment requirements instead of managing sales and production as isolated processes.

Connect:

  • Customer orders
  • Product availability
  • Manufacturing requirements
  • Inventory
  • Delivery

How Odoo Connects the Manufacturing Workflow

Odoo connects the processes that move a product from customer demand and material procurement through production, quality, and finished-goods delivery. Instead of managing each department separately, teams can work with shared manufacturing, inventory, procurement, and sales information within one ERP.

Sales

Customer demand creates the need for products and helps establish production requirements

Purchase

Required raw materials and components can be planned and procured based on manufacturing requirements.

Inventory

Raw materials and components are tracked for availability, movement, and traceability before and during production.

MRP

Manufacturing orders and production requirements are planned and scheduled based on demand and available resources.

Quality

Quality checks and production-related issues can be incorporated into the manufacturing process.

Maintenance

Equipment maintenance can be coordinated with manufacturing activities to support reliable production operations.

Odoo-Connects

BOM

The required components, quantities, and manufacturing operations are defined for each product.

Work Orders

Production activities are organized into operations and executed across the appropriate work centers.

Finished Goods

Completed products move into inventory and become available for downstream delivery and fulfillment.

Odoo supports one-, two-, and three-step manufacturing configurations, allowing workflows to be configured according to warehouse and production requirements.
