Can I manufacture a variant then add additional attributes later?

In industry like ceramic after producing the tiles additional attributes need to be added due the quality check like Grade, Color Tone , etc...

Hello Mohammed, 

We can't do what you have mentioned directly in Odoo.

But, There is a work around that you can perform.

lets assume you are producing productA and you have two variants for productA

  • ProductA colour:Green

  • ProductA colour:'unknown'(it is to handle your case)

After the production it comes out ProductA with LightGreen colour

In this  case,

Do the production for ProductA unknown -> Check colour: its light green-> If you have productA with colour LightGreen in your system Do stock adjustment by decreasing qty of ProductA unknown and increase same qty of ProductA Lightgreen

Second time it comes out with DarkGreen,

You don't have Darkgreen variant now. So add 'DarkGreen' under colour attribute and adjust stock just like above

Decrease qty of ProductA unknown and increase same qty of ProductA DarkGreen.

It will be more complicated if your finished good is different in a new attribute that is not already defined under your product master. Introducing new attribute will mess-up your current stock.

I know its not easy. But that's what we can do with default Odoo.

if you want a simple solution you should go for customisation.
