If the creation of lots/SN is deactivated in the subcontracting and receipt operations, the system allows me to receive "subcontracted" products without insert a lot/SN.

Its also possible to add these lots/SN in a subsequent operation where a control point is configured (for example in the transfer for Quality to Stock location).

The problem is that when analyzing the consumption, it is not possible to register the components consumption.

even worse, by unarchiving and opening the "subcontracting" operation, the system allows to add a lot/SN and only a new is accepted.

Thanks!

Did you find a solution? I am looking for a similar solution to insert SN only for approved products in an operation after manufacturing, but Odoo requires the insertion of the LOT in the manugacturing operation.

The system uses several checks to determine if you can receive stocks to the destination location directly on the operations tab or if you need to provide more details in a form view (show form view for detailed receiving).

1. If the multiple locations option is enabled

2. If the current user has access to Multiple Stock Locations

3. If the destination location of the operation has child location(s). Say /Stock/Shelf1 and /Stock/shelf2. The system will prompt for the specific location.

4. If the product has tracking traceability enabled on Lots Or Serial. The system will prompt for the lot number or serial number of the items.

First: A product in Odoo is either with traceability (lot no / serial no) or without. If with lot/sn  you will have to enter it in all movements. 

If you want to transfer materials from a product without tracing to a product with tracing, you can use a manufcaturing order. You cannot do it in a transfer. 


The subcontractor process happens mostly in the goods receipt.  You can configure how to manage lot/sn number in the transfer. (Inventory>configuration>operation types. )  

Components consumption is registered at the goods receipt from your subcontractor.

Thanks Lars for your answer!
Please go to inventory->configuration->operations types and set the filter "archived" and you will find the archived subcontracting operation. Unarchive this and open it in the inventory dashboard and you will get more details of what happens " behind" the receipt and register consumption than you mentioned in the subcontracting process.
For me there is a BUG that Odoo should fix because you can enter lots two times for the same operation.

I modified my answer, since I now understand what you ment by 'unarchive'. That archived operation is a manufacturing operation. I think it is not needed in the process. Perhaps in earlier version. (I checked for V14).
What is described in the documentation is that you register consumption when you do goods receipt. And with lot/ serial numbers.

"Traceability

In case the products received from the subcontractor contain tracked components, their serial or lot numbers need to be specified during the receipt.

"On the receipt of the subcontracted product, a Record Components button appears when necessary. Click on it to open a dialog and record the serial/lot numbers of the components. If the finished product is also tracked, its serial/lot number can be registered here too."

I am not surprised that you can enter the same lot number several times. There is really no check in Odoo for that. But for what operation do you refer to? Supply to the subcontracor or receive. Lot number for components or lot number for what you receive?
