MRP Workcenter Category

This module adds a new way to classify your work centers in the Manufacturing app.

• A new "Work Center Categories" screen is available under Manufacturing > Configuration. There you can create categories, give them a name, an internal reference and a description, and nest them under a parent category to build a tree (for example "Extrusion" with children "Polypropylene" and "PVC"). The full path of a category is shown automatically, and the internal reference must be unique.
• On each work center form and list you now find a "Category" field, so you can tag every work center with one of these categories.
• In the work center search view you can filter by category and group work centers by category, which makes it easy to see all machines of the same type together.

Access is controlled by Odoo groups: regular manufacturing users can only read categories, while manufacturing managers can create, edit and delete them. The category menu is visible to users who manage routings.
