Using Odoo 14 we have a product that has 2 components; the first component is consumed in operation A, and the 2nd component is consumed in operation B.


Operation A has a workcenter set as 'workcenter1' and operation B has a workcenter set as 'workcenter2' 


When a MO is created for this product we want 2 picking operations to be created for each workcenter so they can be processed by different departments.

Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks

Hi Ashish (apologies as I posted as an answer!)

Many thanks for the info but I am unsure what you mean by the "Routings" tab on the product form; or do you mean "Operations".

I have already specified the different operations for each of the components but this only produces one picking operation, so I must be missing something?

Thanks

To clarify When you mean 2 picking operations, do you mean

stock of Department 1 to MO location
and
stock of Department 2 to MO location

or do you mean

stock to workcenter1
and
stock to workcenter2

Author

I mean: -
stock to workcenter1 (defined by operation 1)
and
stock to workcenter2 (defined by operation 2)

Thanks

Thanks Jaideep

Your suggestion as an option of using a multi-level BOM which creates 2 MO's achieves what we require.

Probably not possible, in standard configuration an MO is looking for all components at 1 location (defaults to WH/Pre-production if multi-location is enabled).

While you can define multiple routes for manufacturing, you can only select 1 route prior to confirming MO (Operation Type field on Miscellaneous tab), which means it could be either stock to workstation 1 OR stock to workstation 2. 

One of the option could be to split the MO into 2 MOs and have different operations for each MO. You can do this by creating a multi-level BOM. Operations & components at workstation 1 would a BOM and this semi-finished product along with other components would be BOM for final product.

The other option could be to have a 2 step picking.. stock to workstation 1 to workstation 2.. Both operations would have all the products/ component (qty) but 2 operations. WorkCentre 1 picks all components from stock while WorkCentre 2 picks only required components from WorkCentre 1

In Odoo 14, you can create two separate routing operations for each work center, and then assign the appropriate components to each routing operation. Then, when you create a manufacturing order for the product, two separate pickings will be created, one for each routing operation and work center.

To do this, go to the product form and click on the "Routings" tab. Then, click on the "Add a Routing" button to create a new routing. Give the routing a name, and then add the two operations, assigning the appropriate work centers to each operation. Finally, make sure to assign the correct components to each operation, so that the correct materials are picked for each work center.

Once you have set up the routing, you can create a manufacturing order for the product and the two pickings will be automatically generated for the different work centers.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
