Hi all,

I am setting up Odoo for a small manufacturing company (4 people, I am one of them) so that we stop to use Google Sheet to manage everything. So far we successfully setup  inventory, bills of material and production orders to keep track of what resources we have in house.

Now, I am trying to set up the subcontract function: we send the parts to third parties and we receive a different "bundle" that we will use in another BoM for a finished product, we need to know that something left our lab and something else will come in (I know, not very technical).

I yet do not understand all the routes and warehouse, so the first solution that we are thinking is:

- creating a BoM for the parts that I need to subcontract.

- when we ask a subcontractor to build it, we just do a production order in Odoo like it was made by us. The products part of the BoM decrease from the inventory and a new bundle get added to my inventory.

Would be ok to do so?
