How does Odoo handle work orders?

Odoo Manufacturing software manages work orders through an intuitive interface displaying step-by-step instructions, required components, and quality checkpoints for shop floor operators. The Odoo MRP system generates work orders from production orders, assigns them to work centers, and tracks progress through each manufacturing stage. Operators can record setup times, quantity produced, and downtime reasons from tablets or terminals for accurate labor tracking . Completed work orders trigger automatic inventory updates and create pathways for next production phases.
