I am trying to set up a routing for a specific situation.

It is a company that specialises in grinding services but ocasionally the regrinded products need to be sent to a subcontractor for a coating service. Here are two possible scenarios that can occur :


Scenario 1 : Company receives product A from the client. They regrind the tool and then they return it to the client. (This one is pretty straightforward).


Scenario 2 : Company receives the same product A from a different client. They regrind the tool and then they have to send it to a subcontractor for coating. Once they receive it back, they do inspection and then give it back to the client.


What would be the best way in setting this up? Do I set both as a service? How can I then setup a routing for scenario 2? I assume I would need to have 2 different products (one that requires subcontractor intervention and another that doesn't). Is there a way to have a conditional routing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please refer to the following blog topic for How subcontracting and manufacturing works in odoo

Yeah the issue with this approach is that I have over 25k products. This would bring me with over 50k products, something that is simply not acceptable for various reasons.

The approach with this subcontractor is that there is no PO generated. Rather we get multiple products from different clients and we combine them in the same batch and simply ship it off with a detailed list inside the box.

These are MTO products. Is there a way to add multiple routings? One with coating and one without?


If not, this might be a dealbreaker for buying the solution. :(


@cybrosys I have already read that link and watched the video. Unfortunately that approach would apply to all my products. This is not the viable. Sometimes we might need to send the product to the subcontractor and other times we wouldn't. We would need a solution where we could apply a subcontractor rout on the sales order opening stage.

The product you receive form the customer must be "Non Grinded" and a component in the bOM for the finish product.

For scenario 2, you would need a sub product "Non coated" that you send to your subcontractor, and you receive the finished product.

It is possible to hav two alternative bom, but the description I have read, is not very efficient.  

You must register 3 bom, and the first one (that will automatic be selected when you create a manufacturing order) should have no components.   Then the manufacturing order will not be automatic confirmed, and you can select which BOM to use.  So very manual.

I would have selected the option to have two different products. One with subcontracting and one without.  Faster and easier registration.
