The MOs being generated upon confirmation of the sale order have suddenly changed. They used to be generated in draft mode and now they are being generated directly in confirmed mode.. We are a company that does customized work so it is not possible for us to have a fixed BOM.. Looking for a workaround on this or if we can change some setting for this? 


This just started happening this week. And we do not want to have customizations

Which version of Odoo?

Author

odoo 18

Odoo uses the first Bill of Materials for each Product that it finds starting from the top of the list. If it is empty, it can't confirm the Manufacturing Order so leaves it in draft.

This is the normal configuration to have Manufacturing Orders created in draft.

If you are using this feature, check if the empty BoM is now below another BoM for the same Product.

Hi,


Check the Route on the Product

Go to:

Inventory > Products > Select your Product > Inventory Tab


    See if the "Manufacture" and "Make To Order (MTO)" routes are both enabled.


    This combination often causes MOs to be automatically confirmed if a valid BoM exists.



Check the BoM

Go to:

Manufacturing > Bills of Materials > Select the BoM


    If the BoM is valid and linked, Odoo tries to confirm the MO automatically during sale order confirmation.


    Removing the BoM or creating a dummy BoM with a note to update manually can help keep MOs in draft state.



Enable Developer Mode to View More Options


    Go to Settings > Activate Developer Mode (bottom of the page).


    Then re-check the routes and procurement rules under:


        Inventory > Configuration > Routes


        Manufacturing > Configuration > Work Orders / Operation Types


Sometimes, a custom or updated procurement rule (even from a Studio action or upgrade) could force MO confirmation.


Hope it helps.
