Automatic creation of stock request from location to another location...

Asked by Joel Cabral

Is there a way for automatic requests of product or item based on my production order.

Let:
Product ABC <-------Finished Good
A <-------Raw Material
B <-------Raw Material
C <-------Raw Material

All raw materials are in location RM. it should be transfer to location prod upon producing product ABC.

In my current set-up i need to manually create stock request/transfer from location RM to location prod. Is there a way to automatically create stock request/transfer of the raw materials?

Short answer is "Production location" in routing.

Longer: You created BoM for product ABC and in BoM it is a place for Routing. You have to create Routing and assign it to BoM. In Routing you can choose "prod" (?) as Production Location. This location is taken as source location for materials consumed in Manufacturing order when you press "Start production".

Warning: When you configure production this way and run Scheduler OpenERP will automatically crerate moves from ANY location containing required raw materials. It is no indication from where they should be taken into Production location. But if you have them in RM they will be taken from RM.

Warning 2: This automatic move from RM to prod will be automatically in status "Done" what is probably the bug. Because stock move should be validated by human when it is done in real time.

When the procurement for ABC is run youll get the ProductionO with a related Internal move. ProcurementOrders for A,B,C will also be generated. In my case what I've detected is that the move is just confirmed, not done. However, when the components, ie A B C, have been procured then the move is automatically set as Done. As Cirrus says, this might be what needs fixing, as the move in my case should be set to Done manually. Ideally one would set this move to automatic or manual in configuration.
