Hi
We are quit new to Odoo and working on setting up manufactering operations and steps. Our products consists of sub-parts which has unique serial numbers and in the Work Order, the subparts are set to be Register Consumed Components, so we can track the serial numbers in the final product.
This process, we will do with a barcode reader to speed up the process. After it has been scanned, the user needs to press Validate to go to the next step.
I would like to make that process easier (so the user should not need to click the Validate button).
My thoughts are:
- Use the barcode scanner to scan a "Validate" command. When I try this, I get an error message saying that the O-BTN.Validate is not a known command. Is it possible to modify the Work Order View so the Validate button is associated with the O-BTN.Validate command?
- Add a USB Footswitch with the action assigned to Validate. Though I am unsure whether this can be done without the IOT module. In the Odoo docs, it says that the button should be linked in the Work Center/IOT, but without the IOT module, this is not possible. So I don't know how to connect a USB footswitch directly to the PC and then assign the button to Validate in Odoo.
If someone has another/better solution, I am all ears :)
