What is a routing sheet?

A routing sheet is a document that details the entire production process of an item: the sequence of operations, equipment used, tools, time standards, and exact material consumption. It serves as a step-by-step guide for operators, ensuring a unified work performance standard. Thanks to the routing sheet, every employee on the production floor follows the same methods, guaranteeing consistent product quality and predictable results.

In the Odoo system, routing sheets are fully digitized in the Manufacturing module. You can create and store them in the system, linking them to specific products. This allows automatic planning of production orders, reserving necessary materials from Inventory, and providing workshop staff with instant access to up-to-date instructions from work terminals. Odoo turns a static document into a dynamic part of the production process, significantly reducing errors and speeding up the training of new employees.
