This feature extends Odoo’s Manufacturing Shopfloor application by giving businesses full control over which Manufacturing Order (MO) details are displayed to workers during production. Instead of being limited to default fields, administrators can now configure the MO fields shown on the Shopfloor interface, ensuring operators always have access to the most relevant production details.

Key Benefits

  • Customizable Visibility – Select MO fields such as Notes, Components, or Miscellaneous details to display directly on Shopfloor tiles.
  • Improved Efficiency – Operators can access key production information (e.g., special instructions or component details) at a glance, reducing back-and-forth navigation.
  • Consistency with Sales Orders – Mirrors a similar SME feature that enables SO details to be displayed on the Shopfloor, ensuring uniform functionality across operations.
  • Better Communication – Ensures important production notes are visible to shop floor workers, minimizing errors caused by missing or overlooked information.

User Workflow

  1. Configuration (Administrator)
    • Navigate to Manufacturing Extension > Settings.
    • Locate the option Fields to display on Shopfloor.
    • Select the desired fields (e.g., Notes, Components, Miscellaneous).
    • Save the configuration.
  2. Execution (Operator)
    • Create and confirm a Manufacturing Order.
    • Open the Shopfloor module and navigate to a work center.
    • The selected MO fields appear on the MO tile.
    • Workers can see critical information (e.g., MO notes, operation type, location) directly on the Shopfloor interface.

Modules Impacted

  • Manufacturing
  • Shopfloor (Extension)

This development empowers manufacturers to streamline shop floor operations, ensuring teams always have access to the information they need—right where they need it.
