It provides a visual interface for creating production orders, assigning work centers, and tracking progress. Users can generate production schedules, manage dependencies, and monitor the availability of resources and materials.

Quality Control: Maintaining consistent quality is crucial in manufacturing processes, and Odoo MRP offers comprehensive quality control features. Users can define quality control points, set inspection criteria, and record quality checks at various stages of production. The system allows for non-conformance management, helping identify and address quality issues promptly. This feature ensures adherence to quality standards, reduces rework, and enhances customer satisfaction.
