Hi all,

i hve been using Odoo of an on since version 8, and in version 10 i used to have configured Sales order to Manufacture.

It would create a manufactoring order with the reference document of the sales order (with linked client info etc)

since Odoo 10 isn't supported anymore i started with a clean slate Odoo 14 last year, but i noticed the way i used to configure this doesn't work anymore.

when you create a product to manufacture, you NEED to create a reordering rule in order to make it work. (ie create a production order)

however, the reference document is no longer the Sales Order, but an internal OP, and the manufacturing order no longer has the client info linked.

I the same goes for Odoo 15.


Any idea how to solve this, so i can create the MO straight from the SO without the use of "reordeing rules"?

If you use the MTO route it will write the SO to the reference field on the MO.

Enable it here: Inventory > Configuration > Routes > (Filter for 'Archived') then unarchive it

On the product template, tick MTO + Manufacture as the possible routes

Remove any Reordering rules on the product as they might interfere with the MTO route.

If you have done the above, then when a sales order with an MTO product is confirmed, it will create a MO.

The Sales Order will have a smart button to link to the MO, the MO will have a smart button to link to the sales order, and the reference field on the MO will be the Sales Order that created it.

Let me know if this works for you. I have tested this extensively in v15.
