Re: Consuming stock internally while using the its costs in project

Re: Consuming stock internally while using the its costs in project

There are a couple of things I can think of.

1. Manufacturing Orders - ingredients as raw materials, portions as outputs, workorders as labour. Delivery Order for what is delivered, Analytic Accounts on sale. Can be done with/without projects. Will add up all your costs.
2. Stock locations - this is not quite the same fit, but many times I have faced scenarios where stocked goods are required for internal projects and the easiest way has been a stock transfer to a location with a different account set. 

Analytics could be added to both manufacturing and stock easily enough and I believe OCA has modules to do so. Also for linking MO's to projects. If you had a separate product / customer and used anglosaxon you would end up with effectively actual cost, unfortunately actual cost is an Odoo Enterprise only direct from Odoo feature at the moment, but for something this basic it could be done quite simply. Otherwise you could use average cost and rely on analytics/other reporting for actuals.

Hello,

I am dealing with a customer who provides catering services. The price is 
dependent only on how many portions they serve regardless of the costs of 
labour and/or ingredients used.

I am planning to use projects (analytic accounts) to keep track of 
profitability related to Sale Orders that will be invoiced based od delivered 
quantities (of portions). Now I am scratching my head as on how to consume 
storable stock (ingredients) in a way that its value would be added as a cost 
to the project. Internal transfers? Purchase Order within the organization?

The cost of staff should be possible to be dealt with with timesheets. Is that 
so?

Any advice is highly welcome. Thank you

Best regards
