Manufacturing Order Auto-Validate
Auto-validate manufacturing orders when the "Pick components" transfer operation is validated. This feature has to be enabled for each Bill of Material to produce.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Lets you flag a Bill of Materials so that its manufacturing orders are automatically completed as soon as the components are picked. The quantity to produce is then locked to the Bill of Materials quantity.
On a Bill of Materials of type 'Normal' you get a new option called 'Order Auto Validation'. When you tick it, a warning appears explaining that the quantity to produce of the related orders is now restricted to the Bill of Materials quantity.
- Manufacturing orders created from that Bill of Materials are marked as auto-validated while still in draft.
- If you try to change the quantity to produce to something different from the Bill of Materials quantity, Odoo blocks the change with an error message.
- When the transfer that picks the components is validated, the linked manufacturing order is automatically finished, including handling the immediate production, batch production and backorder wizards.
- If orders are generated automatically by procurement (for example from a sales order), the requested quantity is adjusted: it is raised to the Bill of Materials quantity if it was lower, or split into several orders of exactly the Bill of Materials quantity if it was higher. A note is posted on the order to explain the change.
The feature works with the manufacturing order, Bill of Materials, stock transfer, stock rule, batch production and backorder screens. It is intended for warehouses configured with two or three steps, where components are picked before production.
