Shop Floor

Odoo Shop Floor is the module manufacturing teams use to run and track work orders directly from the production floor. It suits businesses that want workers to update progress in real time, rather than relying on paper travellers or updates entered later from an office.

What Shop Floor does

Shop Floor shows each work centre’s current work orders as cards on a tablet or screen. Operators can start, pause and complete operations, record the quantity produced, register scrap, and raise quality alerts, all from the shop floor itself. This keeps manufacturing orders, stock and time tracking up to date without extra data entry.

Main capabilities

• An overview of work orders by work centre, with clear status tags
• Time tracking for each operation, feeding into work centre performance reporting
• Producing full or partial quantities, including creating backorders
• Recording scrap and quality checks from the shop floor
