+How to process a manufacturing order
+====================================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+There are two basic ways to manage manufacturing in Odoo. The first way
+manages work with one document only. This document is the
+**manufacturing order**. The second way uses additional documents to
+give you more precise control over the manufacturing process. In this
+way, **Manufacturing orders** are divided into one or more steps
+defined by **work orders**, performed in an order defined by
+**routings**.
+
+How to manage manufacturing without routings
+============================================
+
+You will most likely use manufacturing orders without routings if all
+the work to produce your product is performed in one place, by one
+person, in one step, and/or you do not need the level of granular
+control afforded by work orders and routings.
+
+Managing your operations in this way is the default behavior in Odoo.
+There are two basic phases from planning to production:
+
+1. Create manufacturing orders
+
+2. Record Production
+
+How to manage manufacturing with routings and work orders
+=========================================================
+
+To use work orders and routings, you will need to enable the option
+**Manage production by work orders** From
+:menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings`. You will then be able to add
+routings to bills of materials, and configure some additional related
+fields. You will also be able to create **work centers**, the
+locations at which work orders are performed.
+
+When manufacturing with routings and work orders, each work order is
+scheduled individually. You will also have access to time and capacity
+planning, and reports on costing and efficiency on a work center level.
+
+Manufacturing using routings can be broken down into several steps. When
+configuring your BoM, you will need to add a routing defining the
+component work orders. After planning the manufacturing order, you will
+have the added step of scheduling work orders.
+
+The workflow is thus divided into three basic phases, as follows:
+
+1. Create manufacturing orders
+
+2. Schedule the associated work orders.
+
+3. Perform the scheduled work and record production.
