Configuration

Once the Sales Order Reference is installed in the Manufacturing Planning module, users can see sales order references within production planning.

By default, Odoo sets the MTO route as archived. This is because MTO is a somewhat niche workflow that is only used by certain companies. However, it is easy to unarchive the route in just a few simple steps.

To do so, begin by navigating to Inventory -> Configuration -> Routes. On the Routes page, click the Filters button and select the Archived option. This shows all routes that are currently archived.

Enable the checkbox next to Replenish on Order (MTO), then click the Action button to reveal a drop-down menu. From the drop-down menu, select Unarchive.

Planning work orders will help you to run operations smoothly. While creating a work order, you can specify the Planned Date of the production. Odoo will automatically update these details and you can use the Planning By Production platform available under the Manufacturing module to observe the scheduled work orders by production. For this, go to Manufacturing module -> Planning -> Planning by Production

the window will display the dates on which various work orders are scheduled. Clicking on the highlighted date will give a preview of the respective work order with the details of its name, Start Date, Stop Date, and Workcenter and Sale Order reference.
