Multi-Level BOM & Where-Used Explorer

This is a build-to-order module, not an instant download. Typical delivery is 2 to 4 weeks from a confirmed scope, depending on your BOM depth, costing method, and any custom requirements. We begin with a short scoping call, build on your target Odoo version, deliver to a staging database for UAT, and only then install on production. If you have an urgent deadline, tell us up front and we will confirm whether an accelerated timeline is feasible.

Every engagement includes a post-go-live support window for bug fixes and adjustments after handover, with a defined escalation path. You also receive the full source and a git repository, so your team can maintain the module independently. For Odoo major-version upgrades (for example 18 to 19) or new feature requests beyond the original scope, we offer a separate maintenance/upgrade agreement — we will scope and quote that when you need it.

We build for Odoo 17.0, 18.0, and 19.0, on both Community and Enterprise. The module depends on the standard Manufacturing (mrp) app, which exists in Community, so Enterprise is not required. We confirm your exact version and edition during scoping and package the module accordingly so it installs cleanly and stays upgrade-safe.

No. The module extends standard models (mrp.bom, product.template) with new computed fields and dedicated wizards rather than overriding core behavior, so your existing manufacturing, inventory, and costing flows keep working. We install to a staging copy of your database first, run UAT against your real BOMs, and check for interactions with any custom modules before touching production. A documented rollback plan is part of every delivery.

The roll-up walks each BOM recursively, multiplying quantities and applying unit-of-measure conversions at every level, then aggregates component, operation, and sub-assembly cost bottom-up using computed fields declared with @api.depends so totals recalculate automatically when inputs change. The where-used lookup is the inverse traversal: it indexes every BOM line referencing a component and returns the direct and indirect parents. Both respect company-specific costs and active BOM/variant selection.

Yes. On request we expose the where-used graph and rolled-up cost through Odoo's standard XML-RPC/JSON-RPC API, so your PLM, BI, or external ERP can pull the data programmatically. Access is governed by the same security groups and record rules as the in-app views, so external calls only return what the calling user is permitted to see.
