MRP BoM Component Mass Change

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/manufacture Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module allows you to replace or remove a component in several bills of materials at once.

When a component must be changed, the wizard shows the bills of materials where it is used (excluding, when replacing, those that already contain the new component to avoid duplicated lines), lets the user select the ones to update, and then either removes the component or replaces it with another product (setting the new quantity) in a single step.

Table of contents

Usage

You can open the wizard in two ways.

From a bill of materials component line:

  1. Go to Manufacturing -> Products -> Bills of Materials and open a bill of materials.
  2. On the component line you want to change, click the Mass Change Component button (exchange icon). The button is only shown when the component is used in more than one bill of materials. The component to change is fixed to the one of the line.
  3. In the wizard, review the bills of materials that use the component and keep selected only the ones you want to update.
  4. Choose Replace and set the new component and the new quantity, or choose Remove to delete the component from the selected bills of materials.
  5. Click Apply.

From the Manufacturing -> Operations -> Mass Change BoM Component menu, the wizard opens with no component preselected, so you can freely choose any component to change and then follow steps 3 to 5 above.

When replacing, the bills of materials that already contain the new component are automatically removed from the list, so no duplicated component lines are created. The new quantity is mandatory and is applied to every updated line.

The wizard is also available from any bill of materials components list view (e.g. the one provided by the module mrp_bom_component_menu) through the Actions menu.
