Odoo Quality Control: Complete Quality Management Guide
Odoo Quality Control embeds quality assurance checkpoints directly into manufacturing, inventory, and purchasing workflows, ensuring products meet specifications at every stage from raw material receipt through finished goods shipment. Quality teams define control points that trigger inspections automatically based on configurable rules such as operation type, product category, or warehouse location. Inspections can be pass/fail, measurement-based with tolerance ranges, or photo-documented for visual quality verification. Non-conformance reports, corrective actions, and root cause analysis tools close the loop on quality issues, while dashboards track defect rates, inspection pass rates, and quality costs across the organization.
Key Features
Everything included in the Odoo Quality Control: Complete Quality Management Guide module.
Quality Control Points
Define automatic inspection triggers at specific operations like goods receipt, manufacturing steps, or shipment. Each control point specifies the check type, instructions, and acceptance criteria.
Inspection Types
Support pass/fail checks, numeric measurement with tolerance ranges, text-based observations, and photo documentation to cover any quality verification requirement.
Quality Alerts
Raise quality alerts when inspections fail or defects are detected. Alerts are assigned to quality engineers for investigation and resolution with priority levels and due dates.
Non-Conformance Management
Document non-conforming products with detailed descriptions, affected quantities, and disposition decisions (rework, scrap, return to vendor, or use-as-is with approval).
Corrective & Preventive Actions
Link corrective and preventive actions to quality alerts with assigned owners, deadlines, and verification steps. Track action completion and effectiveness over time.
Statistical Process Control
Monitor measurement data over time with control charts that detect trends, shifts, and out-of-specification conditions before they result in defective products.
Quality Dashboards
Track defect rates, inspection pass rates, quality alert resolution time, and cost of quality across products, vendors, and work centers with drill-down reporting.
Who It's For
Manufacturers implementing quality management systems aligned with ISO 9001 standards
Food and pharmaceutical companies requiring inspection traceability and compliance documentation
Procurement teams evaluating incoming material quality from multiple vendors
Quality engineers managing corrective and preventive action programs
Operations managers seeking to reduce defect rates and quality-related costs
How It Works
Quality control points are configured on operations such as receipt, manufacturing steps, or delivery. When an operation reaches a control point, Odoo presents the inspection to the operator with clear instructions and acceptance criteria. The operator records the result, and if the check fails, a quality alert is created for the quality team to investigate. Corrective actions are tracked to closure, and quality dashboards aggregate inspection data for trend analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can quality checks run automatically during manufacturing?
Yes. You configure quality control points on specific manufacturing operations, and Odoo presents the inspection to the operator at the right moment in the production flow. The operator cannot proceed to the next step until the quality check is completed and recorded.
How does Odoo handle non-conforming products?
When a quality check fails, a quality alert is raised and the non-conforming product is flagged. Quality engineers review the alert, determine the root cause, and decide on disposition: rework, scrap, return to vendor, or accept with deviation approval.
Does Odoo Quality support ISO 9001 compliance?
Odoo Quality provides the tools needed for ISO 9001 compliance, including documented procedures, inspection records, non-conformance management, corrective actions, and management review data. ECOSIRE can help configure the system to align with your specific ISO certification requirements.
Can I track vendor quality performance?
Quality control points on incoming goods receipt track inspection results by vendor. The quality dashboard displays pass rates and defect types per vendor, providing data for vendor scorecards and procurement decisions.
What types of inspections does Odoo support?
Odoo supports pass/fail checks, numeric measurements with configurable tolerance ranges, text-based observations for qualitative assessments, and photo documentation for visual inspections. You can combine multiple check types in a single inspection workflow.
