Introduction to Manufacturing
The Manufacturing Module
The Manufacturing module manages production processes. It integrates with Inventory (raw material consumption, finished goods receipt), Quality (workstation checks), Maintenance (equipment downtime), and Accounting (work in progress, cost analysis).
Core Concepts
| Concept | Model | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Bill of Materials (BOM) | mrp.bom | Recipe/parts list defining raw materials, quantities, and operations needed to produce a product. |
| Manufacturing Order (MO) | mrp.production | An order to produce a quantity of a product. Consumes raw materials, produces finished goods. |
| Work Center | mrp.workcenter | A machine, workstation, or production line where operations are performed. |
| Routing | mrp.routing | Sequence of operations (work centers) required to manufacture the product. |
| Subcontracting | purchase.order with subcontract route | Outsource production to a third-party vendor. |
| Planning | mrp.schedule.product | Auto-generate MOs based on reordering rules, manual triggers, or MRP. |
