Hello,
Currently, I would like to depict a specific scenario in Odoo 17, but I'm stuck.
The use case involves the embellishment and printing of T-shirts and pants. A T-shirt is supplied by the manufacturer (stockable product), and the imprint (patch/flock/flex) is then created as a consumable item.
Here's how I understand the logic in Odoos Manufacturing App:
You create the fully customized product in Odoo (e.g., "Printed Shirt for Customer X") and then set up a bill of materials (BOM) for that particular product.
That would be fine, but each customer has different preferences for how the T-shirt should be printed. To represent this in Odoo, each salesperson would need to create a new product with its associated BOM during the sales conversation which leads to a lot extra effort. Is this the correct approach in Odoo to avoid deviating from the standard? We already planning importing thousands of products from catalogs and it seems wrong to create more products with each sales order. To avoid frustration in the sales team I could automate this by writing a corresponding module on my own, but I hope for a better approach.
Does anyone have experience in how to handle such scenarios in Odoo 17? I would appreciate any advice or perspective. Perhaps there's a module or approach that I haven't discovered yet.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Best regards,
Andre
