Hi Landis,

this sounds exactly like what I need, but I'm not sure that I follow - 
if you say you need a "bom for each", then you basically mean defining 
each leg as a separate product, which you include in the main BoM; so 
there's a production step in between where a leg becomes a leg1, and 
then becomes part of the table. Am I right? Or are you talking about 
some other kind of serialization, that I don't yet know about?

  • Mounting location of part upon production
    Hello,
    
    I'm dealing with a situation where upon production, the mounting 
    location of the parts needs to be registered.
    
    Imagine a chair with 4 identical legs, but it needs to be registered 
    which leg is placed where: front right, front left, rear right or rear left.
    
    Is there something for this case in Odoo? What I could come up with is:
    
    - Requiring work orders for "leg mounting", and specifying the mount 
    location on the work order
    
    - Having separate products eg "Left rear leg" and producing these from 
    "Leg" (seems a bit of a hassle)
    
    - Adding a required field on stock move line in case certain products 
    are produced, where the mount location is filled in; also enforce 1.0 as 
    a quantity
    
    - ...
