+================================
+Using an alternative Work Center
+================================
+
+For many manufacturing companies, a common issue is to have to
+manufacture, at the same time, several products usually produced at the
+same work center. If in practice, employees can manufacture the goods at
+another work center, it is not that simple.
+
+You need to keep track of the job: which work center has been used and
+when, so you can schedule maintenance efficiently. With Odoo, you can
+configure it so you can keep tracking manufacturing orders and your
+employees have an alternative work center to use.
+
+This way, your process becomes more efficient, and less non-productive
+time will be noticed.
+
+
+Configure your Work Centers
+===========================
+
+The first thing to do is to go to the *Manufacturing* app settings.
+Then, enable the *Work Orders* feature and hit save.
+
+
+.. image:: media/alternative_wc_01.png
+    :align: center
+
+
+Now, go to the *Work Centers* menu under *Master Data* and create
+two new work centers. Add the second work centers as an alternative to
+the first and vice versa.
+
+
+.. image:: media/alternative_wc_02.png
+    :align: center
+
+
+The next step is to create your *routing*. Add your work center and an
+operation to it before saving.
+
+
+.. image:: media/alternative_wc_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+
+Then, you can create your *Bill of Materials* and add components and
+routing to it.
+
+
+.. image:: media/alternative_wc_04.png
+    :align: center
+
+
+Create your Work Orders
+=======================
+
+Now that everything is configured, you can create your *Work Orders*.
+Go to the *Manufacturing Orders* menu and hit *Create*. There, add
+your product and plan it. In the *Work Orders* list, you can find it
+ready to be assembled.
+
+
+.. image:: media/alternative_wc_05.png
+    :align: center
+
+
+Each new *Work Order*, which will be created before the end of the
+first one, will be scheduled at the alternative work center you
+configured.
+
+
+.. image:: media/alternative_wc_06.png
+    :align: center
+
+
+.. note::
+         Keep in mind that, if you add time after production to your work center,
+         you may have work orders scheduled for your alternative work center even
+         if the usual one is free.

+=========================
+Create Bills of Materials
+=========================
+
+A *Bill of Materials* is a document defining the quantity of each
+component required to manufacture a finished product. It also includes
+the routing and individual steps of the manufacturing process.
+
+With Odoo, you can link multiple BoMs to each product and use it to
+describe multiple variants of them. Each BoM will, yet, be associated
+with one product only.
+
+This feature will help optimize your manufacturing process while saving
+you time.
+
+Setting up a BoM
+================
+
+You can use BoMs without routings. You will use this if you choose to
+manage your manufacturing operations using manufacturing orders only. In
+other words, you choose to realize your manufacturing process in one
+step and do not track the steps the product goes through.
+
+Before creating your *BoM*, you have to create the product using the
+*BoM* and, at least, one of the components. Go to the :menuselection:`Master Data menu --> Products`
+and create both the finished product and the component.
+
+Once done, go to the *Bills of Materials* menu under *Master Data*.
+Now, create it. Choose the product from the dropdown menu and add your
+components and the quantity. In this case, keep the default *BoM*
+type, which is *Manufacture this Product*.
+
+.. image:: media/bills_of_materials_01.png
+    :align: center
+
+Using the same BoM to describe Variants
+---------------------------------------
+
+As said above, you can use *BoM* for *Product Variants*. It is
+basically the same as for the standard product.
+
+If your *BoM* is for one variant only, then specify which one in the
+*Product Variant* field. If not, specify the variant it is consumed
+for on each component line. You can add several variants for each
+component.
+
+.. image:: media/bills_of_materials_02.png
+    :align: center
+
+Adding a routing
+================
+
+You can add routing to your *BoM*. You will do this if you need to
+define a series of operations required by your manufacturing process. To
+use it, enable the *Work Orders* feature in the *Manufacturing* app
+settings.
+
+.. image:: media/bills_of_materials_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+.. note::
+         Each *BoM* can have only one routing while each routing can be used
+         multiple times.
+
+Now that you have created your routing, add it to your *BoM*. You can
+select when, in the work operations, your components are consumed with
+the dropdown menu.
+
+.. image:: media/bills_of_materials_04.png
+    :align: center
+
+Adding By-Products
+==================
+
+In Odoo, a *by-product* is any product produced by a *BoM* in
+addition to the primary product.
+
+To add *by-products* to a *BoM*, you will first need to enable them
+from the *Manufacturing* app settings.
+
+.. image:: media/bills_of_materials_05.png
+    :align: center
+
+Once the feature is enabled, you can add your *By-Products* to your
+*BoMs*. You can add as many *By-Products* as you want. Just keep in
+mind that you need to register during which operation your by-product is
+produced.

+===================================
+Use flexible components consumption
+===================================
+
+Sometimes, you might need more components than usual to manufacture a
+product. Let’s say that you produce a desk combination of 4 desks and
+two chairs but your customer asks you one more desk. Alright, you can do
+that. But you will need to register it!
+
+In case this happens, Odoo has the *flexible components consumption*
+feature available. If you enable it, you will be able to consume as many
+components as needed and it will make you save time in the registration
+of your items consumption.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+Using flexible component consumption is easy and can be done in a few
+steps. All you need is a *BoM* and a *Quality Control Point*.
+Therefore, you will need to activate the feature *Quality* in the
+*MRP* app settings.
+
+First, open the *BoM* you want to use for flexible component
+consumption and edit it. In the *Miscellaneous* tab, choose
+*Flexible* as the consumption type. Then, save.
+
+.. image:: media/flexible_components_consumption_01.png
+    :align: center
+
+Now, in the *Quality* app, open the *Control Point* menu, under
+*Quality Control* and create a new *Quality Control Point*. Choose
+your product, your operation and work order operation. Then, choose
+*Register Consumed Materials* as type.
+
+.. image:: media/flexible_components_consumption_02.png
+    :align: center
+
+Next, go back to your *Manufacturing* app and create a *Manufacturing
+order*. Choose the product for which you have created the flexible
+*BoM*.
+
+Then, confirm it and launch the process step. While processing, you will
+have the possibility to consume more components than expected in the
+*BoM*. To do so, click on *Continue Consumption*.
+
+.. image:: media/flexible_components_consumption_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+When the job is over, you will find a summary of your component
+consumption in the *Finished Steps* tab of your work order.

+=============================
+Sell sets of products as kits
+=============================
+
+A *kit* is a set of components that are delivered without first being
+assembled or mixed. *Kits* are described in Odoo using *Bills of
+Materials*. There are two basic ways to configure *kits*, depending
+on how the stock of the kit product is to be managed. In either case,
+both the *Inventory* and *Manufacturing* apps must be installed.
+
+Manage Stock of Component Products
+==================================
+
+If you want to assemble kits as they are ordered, managing stock of the
+kit components only, you will use a *Kit BoM* without a manufacturing
+step.
+
+A product using a *Kit BoM* will appear as a single line item on a
+quotation and sales order, but will generate a delivery order with one
+line item for each of the components of the kit. In the examples below,
+the first image shows a sales order for the kit *Custom Computer Kit*,
+while the second image shows the corresponding delivery order.
+
+.. image:: media/kit_shipping_01.png
+    :align: center
+
+.. image:: media/kit_shipping_02.png
+    :align: center
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+From the *Products menu* in either the *Inventory* or
+*Manufacturing* app, create each component product as you would with
+any other product, then create the top-level, or kit product. The kit
+product should have only the *route Manufacture* set, in the
+*Inventory tab*. Because you cannot track the stock of kit products,
+the *Product Type* should be set to Consumable. Because a kit product
+cannot be purchased, then, *Can be Purchased* should be unchecked.
+
+All other parameters on the kit product may be modified according to
+your preference. The component products require no particular
+configuration.
+
+.. image:: media/kit_shipping_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+Once the products are configured, create a *bill of materials* for the
+kit product. Add each component and its quantity. Select the *BoM Type
+Ship this product as a set of components*. All other options may be
+left with their default values.
+
+.. image:: media/kit_shipping_04.png
+    :align: center
+
+Manage Stock of Kit Product and Component Products
+==================================================
+
+If you want to manage stock of the *top-level kit product*, you will
+use a standard *BoM* with a manufacturing step instead of a *Kit
+BoM*. When using a standard BoM to assemble kits, a *manufacturing
+order* will be created. The *manufacturing order* must be registered
+as completed before the kit product will appear in your stock.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+On the kit product, select the *route Manufacture*. You may also
+select *Make to Order*, which will create a *manufacturing order*
+whenever a sales order is confirmed. Select the product type *Storable
+Product* to enable stock management.
+
+.. image:: media/kit_shipping_05.png
+    :align: center
+
+When you create the *bill of materials*, select the BoM Type
+*Manufacture this product*. The assembly of the kit will be described
+by a *manufacturing order* rather than a packing operation.

+============================
+Process Manufacturing Orders
+============================
+
+In Odoo, you can manage your manufacturing process in two different
+ways. You can work with one document, or decide to have more information
+and control over it.
+
+In the first case, Odoo makes things easier and helps you manage work
+with one document only: the manufacturing order. No complex steps during
+the process, you just have to schedule the job and record the
+production.
+
+But, if you need more control, you can use additional documents (steps)
+to your manufacturing process. This way, *Manufacturing Orders* are
+divided into one or more steps defined by *Work Orders* and performed
+in a sequence defined by *routings*.
+
+Using Odoo will allow you to precisely schedule the job, analyze your
+efficiency but also have ease when realizing each step of your
+manufacturing process.
+
+Manage Manufacturing Without Routings
+=====================================
+
+If your manufacturing process is limited to one place, one person and
+one step, you will probably use manufacturing orders without routings.
+
+In Odoo, it is the default behavior. If work this way, there are two
+basic phases from planning to production:
+
+-  Create a manufacturing order
+
+-  Record the production
+
+Manage Manufacturing with Routings and Work Centers
+===================================================
+
+To use *Work Centers* and *Routings*, you will need to enable the
+*Work Orders* feature. To do so, go to the *Manufacturing* app
+settings.
+
+.. image:: media/process_manufacturing_orders_01.png
+    :align: center
+
+Now, you can add routings to *BoMs* and configure your operations
+taking place at different *work centers*. The *Work Centers* are the
+locations at which work orders are performed.
+
+.. image:: media/process_manufacturing_orders_02.png
+    :align: center
+
+When manufacturing this way, each *Work Order* is scheduled
+individually. You will also have access to time and capacity planning,
+as well as reports on costing and efficiency for each *Work Center*.
+
+.. image:: media/process_manufacturing_orders_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+Thus, the workflow is divided into three basic phases:

+Plan Work Orders
+================
+
+In some cases, companies need to schedule their work orders. Doing so,
+they can organize the work for the whole day and be sure everything goes
+well. It helps to avoid scheduling multiple work orders at the same time
+when you don’t have the capacity to do so.
+
+With Odoo, companies can schedule the planned start date for their
+manufacturing orders. No possible duplication, no potential issues with
+the planning. And, if you plan two work orders at the same work center,
+at the same hour, the second one will be scheduled right after the first
+one, avoiding work superposition.

+Manage semi-finished products
+=============================
+
+In Odoo, you can use subassembly products to simplify a complex *Bill
+of Materials* or to represent your manufacturing flow more accurately.
+A *subassembly product* is a manufactured product that is used as a
+component to make another one.
+
+A *BoM* that employs *subassemblies* is referred to as a multi-level
+BoM. Those are accomplished by creating a *top-level BoM* and
+*subassembly ones*. This process requires a route that will ensure
+that every time a manufacturing order for the top-level product is
+created, another one will be for subassemblies.
+
+Configure the Subassembly Product
+=================================
+
+To configure a *multi-level BoM*, you will need a top-level product
+but also its subassemblies. The first step is to create a product form
+for each of the subassemblies. Select the routes *Manufacture* and
+*Replenish on Order*. Now, hit save.

+Subcontract your Manufacturing
+==============================
+
+Outsourcing a portion of some or all your company’s manufacturing needs
+is not easy. To make it work right, you have to:
+
+- Manage the inventory of raw materials at your subcontractor;
+- Ship new materials to your subcontractors based on your forecasted
+  demand;
+- Keep track of manufacturing operations done at the subcontractor
+  location;
+- Control incoming goods quality;
+- Control subcontractors bills.
+
+Here is an example of subcontracting the manufacturing of “C”, which is
+produced out of raw materials “A” and “B”.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_01.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+With its subcontracting feature, Odoo helps you handle this flow easily.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+To use the subcontracting feature, go to :menuselection:`Manufacturing
+--> Configuration --> Settings` and tick the box *Subcontracting*.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_02.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+To define if a product must be subcontracted, use a *Bill of Materials
+(BoM)* of type *Subcontracting*.
+
+To create a new *BoM*, go to :menuselection:`Manufacturing --> Master
+Data --> Bill of Materials` and hit create. Then, list the components
+your subcontractor needs to manufacture the product. For costing
+purposes, you might want to register all the components, even the ones
+that are sourced directly from the subcontractor.
+
+Once you have set the *BoM Type* to *Subcontracting*, specify one or
+several subcontractors.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_03.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+Basic Subcontracting Flow
+=========================
+
+To let your subcontractor know how many products you need, create and
+send them purchase orders (PO). To do so, open the *Purchase* app and
+create a new one. Be sure to send the PO to a vendor that is defined as
+a subcontractor on the *BoM*.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_04.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+Once the *PO* is validated (1), a pending receipt is created. When the
+products are received, validate the receipt (2), with the actual
+quantity received. Then Odoo automatically created several inventory
+moves:
+
+- Consume the components at the subcontractor’s location, based on the
+  *BoM* (3);
+- Produce finished goods at the subcontractor’s location (4);
+- Move products from the subcontractor’s location to YourCompany
+  through the validated receipt (5).
+
+Of course, Odoo does all the transactions for you, automatically. Simply
+control the vendor bill with the usual matching process with the
+purchase order.
+
+.. note::
+      The *PO* is optional. If you create a receipt manually, with the right
+      subcontractor, Odoo still performs all the moves. Useful if the
+      subcontractor does not bill a fixed price per item, but rather the time
+      and materials used.
+
+Inventory Valuation
+===================
+
+The cost of the manufactured product “C” is defined as:
+
+**C = A + B + s**
+
+With:
+
+-  **A**: Cost of raw materials coming from YourCompany;
+
+-  **B**: Cost of raw materials sourced directly from the
+       subcontractor;
+
+-  **s**: Cost of the subcontracted service.
+
+Sending raw materials to your subcontractors (**A**) does not impact
+the inventory valuation, the components still belonging to your company.
+To manage this, the *Subcontracting Location* is configured as an
+*Internal Location* so that the components are still valued in the
+inventory.
+
+Then, the vendor price set on the product C form has to be what has to
+be paid to the subcontractor for his parts and service time: **B +
+s**. The product cost has to be: **A + B + s**, how much the
+product is valued in the accounting.
+
+Finally, the subcontractor bill matches the purchase order, with the
+proposed price coming from the finished products C.
+
+.. note::
+      If managing the replenishment of raw materials **B** at your
+      subcontractor’s location is not needed, simply include the cost of
+      **B** in the subcontractor’s price **s** and remove the products
+      *B* from the *BoM*.
+
+Traceability
+============
+
+In case the products received from the subcontractor contain tracked
+components, their serial or lot numbers need to be specified during the
+receipt.
+
+On the receipt of the subcontracted product, a *Record Components*
+button appears when necessary. Click on it to open a dialog and record
+the serial/lot numbers of the components. If the finished product is
+also tracked, its serial/lot number can be registered here too.
+

+
+For audit purposes, it is possible to check the lot numbers recorded on
+a receipt by using the icon on the right of the finished products:

+
+Automate Replenishment of Subcontractors
+========================================
+
+To manage the resupply of your subcontractor, activate
+*Multi-locations* in :menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration -->
+Configuration`. Then, the inventory at the subcontractor location can
+be tracked.
+
+It is possible to resupply subcontractors by sending products from the
+company locations, or by sending products from another supplier to the
+subcontractors.
+
+Replenishment from the warehouse
+--------------------------------
+
+Resupplying subcontractors manually is the simplest approach. To do so,
+create delivery orders in which the subcontractor is set as a delivery
+address and fill the components to deliver.
+
+To automate the subcontractors’ replenishment propositions, there are
+two approaches:
+
+- Reordering rules;
+- Replenish on order flow.
+
+For the first one, just define a reordering rule on the subcontracting
+location, with a minimum and maximum inventory level. When the
+reordering rule is triggered, a delivery order is created to ship the
+components to the subcontractor.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_07.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+The second approach is to use a “pull” flow. Here, the demand in the
+finished product (real demand or forecasted one through the Master
+Production Schedule) triggers the replenishment of the subcontractor. To
+do so, select the route *Resupply Subcontractor on Order* on the
+wanted components.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_08.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+Replenishment from another supplier
+-----------------------------------
+
+When purchasing items to another supplier, it is possible to ask him to
+deliver the subcontractor directly. To do so, activate the *Drop
+Shipping* feature in :menuselection:`Purchase --> Configuration -->
+Configuration`.
+
+Now, set the *Dropship* option in the *Deliver To* field of the
+*Other Information* tab. Then, provide the address of the
+subcontractor for the shipping.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_09.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+That way, the supplier can ship items directly and you simply receive
+and pay the bill. However, it is still required to validate receipts for
+the subcontractor.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_10.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+Quality Control
+---------------
+
+Controlling the quality of the products manufactured by subcontractors
+is possible thanks to the Odoo Quality app. Quality checks can be made
+on a manufacturing step but, because the manufacturing process is
+handled by an external party, it can be defined on the product
+reception.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_11.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+To create a quality check at the receipt, open the *Quality* app and
+create a new *Control Point* on the reception.
+
+.. image:: media/subcontracting_12.png
+    :align: center
+    :alt: 
+
+By doing so, a quality check is automatically created each time a
+finished product is received.

+=================
+Unbuild a product
+=================
+
+In Odoo Manufacturing App, you can *Unbuild* products. Two use cases
+can be managed: (1) you can unbuild products you have built yourself or
+(2) you can unbuild products you have received.
+
+Let's take the first case, you are manufacturing products yourself. If
+one of your product presents some defect, you might want to unbuild it
+instead of scrapping it completely, allowing you to reuse some
+components of the product.
+
+In the second case, you are buying products for the sole purpose of
+unbuilding them and recycling them.
+
+Unbuild Order
+=============
+
+While in the Manufacturing App, under the *Operations* tab you will
+find the menu *Unbuild Orders*.
+
+.. image:: media/unbuild01.png
+    :align: center
+
+When creating a new one, you can either select a MO if you are
+unbuilding something you manufactured or only select a product if you
+are unbuilding something you received.
+
+.. image:: media/unbuild02.png
+    :align: center
+
+When you are done, just click unbuild and the process will be over.
+
+If you unbuild a product that you manufactured before, you will get the
+components from the MO back in stock.
+
+If you unbuild a product you bought, you will get the components from
+the BoM back in stock.

+==================================
+Use the Master Production Schedule
+==================================
+
+The Master Production Schedule (MPS) is a valuable tool to plan your
+production based on your demand forecast.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+Go to the :menuselection:`Manufacturing app --> Configuration --> Settings` and activate the Master
+Production Schedule feature before hitting save.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_01.png
+    :align: center
+
+.. tip::
+        In the manufacturing settings, you can define the time range of your MPS (month/week/day) and the number of periods you want to display.
+
+Now, go in :menuselection:`Planning --> Master Production Schedule` and click on add a
+product. You can now define your safety stock target (= the stock you
+want to have on hand at the end of the period) and the minimum and
+maximum quantities to replenish.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_02.png
+    :align: center
+
+.. tip::
+        The products are ordered in the MPS based on their sequence. You can
+        rearrange that sequence by going on the list of your products and
+        reorganize them with drag and drop.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_03.png
+    :align: center
+
+In the MPS view, you can decide which information you would like to show
+by clicking on *rows*. Some fields can be added to the view, such as
+*Actual demand*, which will show which quantity of products has
+already been ordered for the period, or *Available to Promise*, which
+allows you to know what can still be sold during the period (what you
+plan to replenish - what is already sold during the period). You can
+also decide to hide some information if it isn’t necessary.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_04.png
+    :align: center
+
+Estimate your demand and launch replenishment
+=============================================
+
+The next step is to estimate the demand for the period. This estimation
+should be entered in the row *Demand Forecast*. You can easily, at any
+time, compare the demand forecast with the actual demand (= confirmed
+sales). The demand forecast for a finished product will impact the
+indirect demand for its components.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_05.png
+    :align: center
+
+Then, the quantity to replenish for the different periods will be
+automatically computed. The replenishments you are supposed to launch
+based on your lead times (vendor lead time or manufacturing lead time)
+are displayed in green. You can now launch the replenishment by clicking
+on the replenish button.
+
+Depending on the configuration of the product (buy vs. manufacture),
+requests for quotations or manufacturing orders will be created. You can
+easily access those by clicking on the *Actual Replenishment* cell.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_06.png
+    :align: center
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_07.png
+    :align: center
+
+In case you manually edit the *To replenish* quantity, a small cross
+will appear on the left. In case you want to go back to the
+automatically computed value given by Odoo, you can click the cross.
+
+.. image:: media/use_mps_08.png
+    :align: center
+
+Cells color signification
+=========================
+
+The cells, which are part of the *To replenish* line, can take
+different colors depending on the situation:
+
+-  **Green**: quantity of products which should be replenished to reach the expected safety stock considering the demand forecast and the indirect demand forecast.
+
+-  **Grey**: replenishment order has already been generated, and its quantity still matches current data.
+
+-  **Red**: replenishment order has already been generated, and its quantity was too high considering current data.
+
+-  **Orange**: replenishment order has already been generated, and its quantity was too low considering current data.
+
+The *Forecasted stock* line can also contain red cells, which means
+the stock will be negative during the period in question.
+
+What if I have underestimated the demand?
+-----------------------------------------
+
+You can still increase the demand forecast. It will impact the quantity
+to replenish. The cell will become orange, and you’ll be able to launch
+a new replenishment.
+
+What if I have overestimated the demand?
+----------------------------------------
+
+You can decrease the demand forecast. The cell will become red to inform
+you that you’ve ordered more than planned. If you’re still able to do
+it, you can cancel some RFQ or MO manually.
+
+What if I wrongly added a product to the MPS?
+---------------------------------------------
+
+You can easily remove a product from the MPS by clicking the small bin
+on the right of its name.
