In order to manufacture a product in Odoo *Manufacturing*, the product must be properly configured. Doing so consists of enabling the *Manufacturing* route and configuring a bill of materials (BoM) for the product. Once these steps are completed, the product is selectable when creating a new manufacturing order.

## Activate the Manufacture route

The Manufacture route is activated for each product on its own product page. To do so, begin by navigating to **Manufacturing -> Products -> Products**. Then, select an existing product, or create a new one by clicking **New**.

On the product page, select the **Inventory** tab, then enable the **Manufacture** checkbox in the **Routes** section. This tells Odoo the product can be manufactured.

## Configure a bill of materials (BoM)

Next, a BoM must be configured for the product so Odoo knows how it is manufactured. A BoM is a list of the components and operations required to manufacture a product.

To create a BoM for a specific product, navigate to **Manufacturing -> Products -> Products**, then select the product. On the product page, click the **Bill of Materials** smart button at the top of the page, then select **New** to configure a new BoM.

On the BoM, the **Product** field auto-populates with the product. In the **Quantity** field, specify the number of units that the BoM produces.

Add a component to the BoM by selecting the **Components** tab and clicking **Add a line**. Select a component from the **Component** drop-down menu, then enter the quantity in the **Quantity** field. Continue adding components on new lines until all components have been added.

Next, select the **Operations** tab. Click **Add a line** and a **Create Operations** pop-up window appears. In the **Operation** field, specify the name of the operation being added (e.g. Assemble, Cut, etc.). Select the work center where the operation will be carried out from the **Work Center** drop-down menu. Finally, click **Save & Close** to finish adding operations, or **Save & New** to add more.

Important

The **Operations** tab only appears if the **Work Orders** setting is enabled. To do so, navigate to **Manufacturing -> Configuration -> Settings**, then enable the **Work Orders** checkbox.

The section above provides instructions for creating a basic BoM that allows a product to be manufactured in Odoo. However, it is by no means an exhaustive summary of all the options available when configuring a BoM.
