A manufacturing backorder in Odoo refers to a situation where you cannot fulfill the entire quantity of a product requested in a manufacturing order because of insufficient inventory for components. It essentially allows you to record the remaining demand and schedule production for it later. Ensures customer orders are captured even if you can’t fulfill them immediately.Helps plan production based on outstanding backorders.Tracks what needs to be manufactured to meet complete demand.
In some cases, the full quantity of a manufacturing order cannot be produced immediately. When this happens, Odoo Manufacturing allows for the manufacturing of partial quantities of the order and creates a backorder for the remaining amount.
In the Manufacturing app, creating a backorder splits the original manufacturing order into two orders. The reference tag for each order is used for the original order, followed by a hyphen and then an additional number to indicate that it’s a backorder.
Example
A company creates a manufacturing order with the reference tag WH/MO/00175, for 10 units of Product X. After starting work on the manufacturing order, the employee working the production line realizes there are only enough components in stock to produce five units of the product.
Instead of waiting for additional stock of the components, they manufacture five units and create a backorder for the remaining five. This splits the manufacturing order into two separate orders: WH/MO/00175-001 and WH/MO/00175-002.
Order 001 contains the five units that have been manufactured, and is immediately marked as Done. Order 002 contains the five units that still need to be manufactured and are marked as In Progress. Once the remaining components are available, the employee returns to order 002 and manufactures the remaining units before closing the order.
