Versioned bill of materials in Odoo, multi-level, with kits and sub-components.
The problem
Planning with sticky notes
How we solve it
Gantt view with capacity by work centre, resources and visual planning.
The problem
Quality reviewed only at the end
How we solve it
Quality control points per operation, alerts, non-conformities with tracking.

How businesses like yours use it
Real case
Workshop with make-to-order production (MTO)
You receive a customer order → generates a manufacturing order with its bill of materials. Missing components are purchased automatically. The operator sees the step-by-step instructions on a tablet.
Real case
Industry with sub-assemblies (MTS)
Multi-level Bill of Materials: a finished product made up of sub-assemblies, each with its own Bill of Materials. Gantt planning respects dependencies between manufacturing orders.
Real case
Configurable product (ETO)
An engineered-to-order product (e.g., special machinery). Each order triggers specific engineering. Version traceability by project.
What it includes
Multi-level BOM
Bills of Materials with sub-assemblies, kits and variants. Version control.
Gantt planning
Capacity by work centre, shared resources, drag & drop.
Tablet on the shop floor
The operator sees the step-by-step instructions, records the time and validates the quality.
Preventive maintenance
Work orders per machine, calendar, spare parts, maintenance costs.
Integrated quality
Quality control points by Bill of Materials, alerts, non-conformities, corrective actions.
MTO/MTS/ETO
Make to order, make to stock or engineered to order. Adaptable to any model.
Four phases. Zero surprises.
We map your current operations, the systems you use, the teams involved and your priorities. Result: a scope agreed in writing and a milestone plan.
We configure the module in your Odoo: fields, views, automations and integrations with neighbouring modules. We iterate with you in one week.
If you come from another system, we migrate your data in a test environment. We validate balances, reconciliations and records point by point before go-live.
Your team learns in practical sessions with your real data. After go-live, you move to monthly support with an SLA and hours for improvements.
Frequently asked questions about Odoo Manufacturing
Does it support cascaded sub-assemblies?
Yes. Multi-level Bill of Materials: the finished product has components which, in turn, can have their own Bill of Materials. No limit on levels.
How does it manage waste and spoilage?
The operator records the waste in the manufacturing order upon validation. It is reflected in the production cost. Waste reports by Bill of Materials.
Does it support preventive maintenance orders?
Yes, with the MRP Maintenance module. Maintenance schedule per machine, pre-assigned spare parts and recorded costs.
Does it allow batch production?
Yes. Manufacturing orders with production batches and unit counting. Lot traceability of the finished product + consumed components.
Integrates with the rest of your Odoo

Why manage manufacturing with Odoo
Odoo Manufacturing controls production orders, bills of materials, and operations linked to inventory. You know what is being manufactured, what materials are needed, and when it will be ready.
By consuming components from the same stock as purchases and sales, the inventory reflects the factory's reality in real-time, and material shortages are avoided.
For workshops and small factories, it is a way to organise production without isolated software. We adapt it to your production process.
Straightforward shop floor control
You don't need a complex industrial system to organise small-scale production. With Odoo Manufacturing, you define clear bills of materials and work orders, and the inventory reflects in real-time what enters and leaves the workshop. At Nextdoo, we adapt it to your specific process, from bespoke workshops to batch production, so you always know what you are manufacturing, with what materials, and when it will be ready, without parallel spreadsheets.
