Suppose a “component” is a product without lists of materials and a “product” is a product that can be manufactured and has lists of materials. For example:

Product ---> BOM
Product A ---> Component 1
                         Component 2
                         Component 3
                         Product B

Product B --> Component 4
                        Component 5
                        Product C

Product C --> Component 6
                        Component 7

If I create an MO of Product A, by default the Consumed materials tab will only shows the first level BOM of that product: Components 1, 2, 3 and Product B. I want to see the components at all levels: Components 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

Tim,

Were you ever able to figure this out? We are having the same issues and have used some customization to get us this far but they are proving to be a challenge for us as we migrate to Odoo 16.

Thanks,
Curtis

By default Odoo shows only the BOM components at the first level only in the MO. But you could go to the BOM of the product A and view the whole subcomponents by printing the BOM structure.

Manufacturing-->Bill of Materials-->(product A)-->print-->BOM structure

Try to switch bom type from 'normal' to 'kit'. Then u'll see all components add to ur Product A's MO.

Hello TIm,

Let's look at your scenario

Product B --> Component 4
                        Component 5
                        Product C

Product C --> Component 6
                        Component 7

Here if your product C is an assembly of component6 and component7 then in the MO of Product B you would see it to be Component 4to 7 as the components of the product B. But if your product C is not a simple assembly and you are manufacturing it (you are doing some work operations on Component 6 and 7 to produce C) it is quiet logical that the MO of Product B sees the difference between Component 6,7 and Product B and hence the way you see it. 

Thanks
