Make sure your products categories uses the automated costing method.

Regarding overheads you can add them to system but not as a "direct cost" to the manufacturing order.

If you want to see all related expenses and costs you can use analytical accounts.

With FIFO and Automated valuation the posting of the manufactured goods include both the materials and the cost of the work center.

The "overhead cost" is not posted as cost of it own. As in accounting this cost is coming in from other sources.  (Payroll, electricity, fuels, depreciation etc.).

You are perhaps thinking of cost center accounting. There you would have the possibility to assign cost from manufacturing to a cost center / workcenter, and again assign the payroll, electricity etc to the same and compare.

 But cost center accounting is not available in Odoo (as far as I know).
