In the world of manufacturing and inventory management, a Bill of Materials (BoM) serves as the backbone of production. Simply put, it is a detailed list of raw materials, components, and instructions required to manufacture or assemble a product. In Odoo, the BoM feature streamlines this process, offering businesses in Kuwait and beyond an efficient way to manage their production needs.

How Do We Use BoM in Odoo?

At Soor Technologies, we specialize in implementing Odoo solutions tailored to your business in Kuwait. Using Odoo’s BoM module, businesses can:

1. Organize production processes: Define the structure of a product, from raw materials to final assembly.

2. Optimize resources: Track inventory, reduce waste, and ensure the right materials are available when needed.

3. Simplify production planning: Automate workflows and link BoMs to manufacturing orders for seamless operations.

Steps to Create a BoM in Odoo

Creating a Bill of Materials in Odoo is straightforward:

1. Navigate to the Manufacturing module.

2. Click on Bill of Materials and then Create.

3. Enter details like the product name, quantity, and the components required.

4. Specify operations or steps for manufacturing, if applicable.

5. Save and link the BoM to your production orders.

Example of BoM in Action

Let’s consider a bakery in Kuwait using Odoo, implemented by Soor Technologies. The bakery produces cupcakes. A BoM for a batch of 12 cupcakes might include:

• Raw Materials: Flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and frosting.

• Quantities: The exact measurement for each ingredient.

• Operations: Mixing, baking, and decorating.

Once the BoM is set up, the bakery can easily track inventory, create manufacturing orders, and ensure every batch of cupcakes is produced consistently and efficiently.

A Simple Story

One of our clients in Kuwait, a local furniture manufacturer, struggled with managing materials and production schedules. After implementing Odoo with Soor Technologies, they used the BoM feature to streamline their operations. What once took hours to manually calculate was now automated, saving time, reducing errors, and boosting productivity.

At Soor Technologies, we help businesses implement Odoo to unlock their full potential. From tracking cupcake ingredients to managing complex furniture manufacturing, BoM makes it all possible.

Let’s simplify your operations together!
