Bills of materials
Multi-level BoMs with sub-assemblies and variants, managed centrally and version-controlled.

Odoo ERP for manufacturing in Oman.
Manufacturing runs on control — of materials, work orders, quality, and cost. We implement Odoo Manufacturing (MRP) so production is planned from real demand, the shop floor is visible, and every order carries a true cost, from raw material to finished goods.
The problem
Where manufacturers lose margin and control.
When production planning lives outside the system, the factory runs blind — and cost is discovered too late.
- Production is planned on spreadsheets, so schedules drift and nobody trusts the plan.
- There is no bill-of-materials control — component versions and quantities aren't managed centrally.
- Work orders and shop-floor status are invisible — no one knows what is running or what is late.
- Quality checks are done manually on paper, so failures aren't traced and recurrence isn't caught.
- Procurement is disconnected from production, so materials arrive late or pile up as excess stock.
- There is no real costing — the true cost of a finished good is a guess until the numbers are reconciled.
The Odoo solution
From demand to finished goods, under control.
We implement Odoo Manufacturing as one connected production system: multi-level bills of materials, work orders and routings, and work-center scheduling drive the shop floor, while MRP links demand to procurement and production — exploding the bills of materials, checking stock, and proposing the purchase and manufacturing orders needed to hit dates. Quality checks are applied at receiving, in production, and at delivery, with a full history.
Because manufacturing sits on the same platform as inventory and accounting, every order carries a real manufacturing cost and inventory valuation — material, labour, and overhead — so margins are known as goods are made, not months later. For holdings, the multi-company framework runs several entities with inter-company inventory between them.
What we implement
The manufacturing toolkit.
Work orders & routings
Work orders generated from BoMs and routed across work centers with clear operations.
Work-center scheduling
Capacity and load planned across work centers so the schedule reflects the floor.
MRP & procurement
Demand explodes the BoMs and proposes purchase and manufacturing orders to meet dates.
Quality control
Quality checks and control points at receiving, in production, and at delivery, with alerts.
Shop-floor control
Live work-order status from the floor, so everyone sees what is running and what is late.
Maintenance
Preventive and corrective maintenance on equipment, tied to the work centers it serves.
Subcontracting
Outsourced operations managed as part of the production flow, with components and receipts tracked.
Manufacturing costing
Real cost per order — material, labour, and overhead — with inventory valuation in the ledger.
Proof
Delivered for a multi-entity manufacturer.
A Qatar manufacturer
- Context
- A furniture factory and its gallery, operating as two legal entities, needed production, finance, and stock connected across both companies.
- What we built
- Odoo Accounting and Manufacturing across the business, with inter-company inventory so components and finished goods move between the two entities on one platform.
- Result
- Both entities run on one system, with manufacturing and finance connected and inter-company stock reconciled.
FAQ
Odoo for manufacturing — questions.
Does Odoo support bills of materials and work orders?
Yes. Odoo Manufacturing supports multi-level bills of materials with sub-assemblies, and generates work orders and routings across work centers, so production is planned and tracked instead of managed on spreadsheets.
Can it plan procurement from production demand?
Yes. Odoo's MRP links demand to supply — it explodes the bills of materials, checks stock, and proposes the purchase and manufacturing orders needed to meet demand on time, so procurement stops being disconnected from production.
Does it do quality control?
Yes. Odoo Quality applies quality checks and control points at receiving, in production, and at delivery, with quality alerts and a full history, so checks are recorded rather than done on paper.
Can it handle multiple manufacturing entities?
Yes. Odoo's multi-company framework runs several manufacturing entities on one platform with separate books and inter-company inventory — which is how we delivered for a manufacturer operating as two legal entities.
