If you outsource significant routing steps — plating, heat-treat, machining, coating, assembly — standard Business Central manufacturing leaves gaps. Subcontract purchase orders aren't natively linked to the routing operation they fulfil, components shipped to a vendor disappear from your WIP visibility, and reconciling what the subcontractor actually consumed against what you sent becomes a spreadsheet exercise.
Subcontract purchase orders linked directly to the routing operation on a released production order via a table extension on Prod. Order Routing Line, so each outsourced step has its own PO and traceable cost
Components shipped-to-vendor tracking using a dedicated off-site WIP location, with item ledger entries that move components out of your warehouse without consuming them prematurely
Off-site WIP aging visibility — a Job Queue task computes how long components and in-process units have been at each subcontractor, flagging overdue work
Receipt of the subcontracted operation back into routing: posting the vendor PO advances the production order operation and brings the completed quantity back to the next routing step
Vendor-supplied vs manufacturer-supplied material scenarios handled explicitly, so consumption and cost are attributed correctly whether you ship the metal or the vendor sources it
Subcontract cost reconciliation page comparing components sent, scrap reported, and units received against the PO value rolled into the production order's actual cost
Subcontracting & Outsourced Production Manager is a per-tenant AL extension that closes these gaps. It ties a subcontract purchase order to the specific routing operation on the released production order, tracks components shipped to the vendor against an off-site WIP location, surfaces aging of parts sitting at subcontractors, receives the completed operation back into routing, and reconciles vendor-supplied versus manufacturer-supplied material so your production order cost is accurate.
This is honest build-to-order, not an instant AppSource download. ECOSIRE builds the extension to your routing structure, subcontract workflow, and costing model; installs it as a per-tenant extension on your Business Central environment (cloud SaaS or on-prem); configures permission sets and a Job Queue entry for WIP aging; and supports it after go-live. Delivery is typically 2–4 weeks depending on scope.
Built with table and page extensions over Production Order, Purchasing, and Item Ledger; event subscribers on the manufacturing posting routines so nothing is bolted on; and OData/REST API exposure for Power BI WIP dashboards or Power Automate vendor alerts. Your data stays in your tenant. You own the extension. We hand over source and documentation, and you can choose a support retainer for updates as Microsoft ships new Business Central releases.
Schedules and releases production orders and needs to see, in real time, which outsourced operations are out at a vendor, what has aged past its expected return, and what is blocking the next routing step — without leaving the production order.
Raises subcontract purchase orders for plating, machining, or coating and needs each PO tied to the exact routing operation and to the components shipped, so receipts reconcile cleanly and supplier performance is measurable.
Owns the accuracy of production order costs and wants subcontract charges, components sent, and vendor-supplied material attributed correctly so off-site WIP is properly valued on the balance sheet.
Buy the license on ecosire.com and download the Subcontracting & Outsourced Production Manager module ZIP from your account dashboard.
Extract the ZIP into your Odoo custom addons folder on the server (or upload via Apps > Install from file on Odoo.sh / runbot).
Activate Developer Mode, open Apps, click Update Apps List, search for Subcontracting & Outsourced Production Manager, and press Install.
Open the new menu, paste your ECOSIRE license key, connect any external credentials (Shopify, Amazon, Stripe, etc.), and save.
Run the built-in connection test, sync your first 10 records, and schedule the recurring cron. Contact support if anything fails.

Typical delivery is 2–4 weeks from a scoping call, depending on the complexity of your routings, costing model, and vendor-supplied material scenarios. We start by mapping your current subcontract flow, build the extension against your Business Central sandbox, validate it with your planners and buyers on real production orders, then install it on production and configure permission sets and the Job Queue aging task. This is build-to-order: there is no instant AppSource download — the extension is tailored to your environment.
No. It is a per-tenant Business Central extension that ECOSIRE builds, installs, and supports directly on your environment — cloud SaaS or on-prem. Because it is a per-tenant extension rather than a public AppSource listing, it can fit your exact routing structure and subcontract workflow instead of forcing you into a generic template. We hand over the source code and the AL project, so you own it.
The extension uses table extensions, page extensions, and event subscribers — it does not modify Microsoft base objects, which is the supported extension model and the same approach AppSource apps follow. That keeps upgrade risk low. Microsoft ships major Business Central releases twice a year; an optional support retainer covers recompiling and validating the extension against each new release plus any enhancements you need.
Both scenarios are modelled explicitly. When you ship components, they move to a dedicated off-site WIP location via item ledger entries and stay valued in your inventory until the operation is received back. When the vendor supplies the material, that consumption is attributed to the subcontract cost on the PO rather than to your inventory, so the production order's actual cost stays correct either way.
Yes. The extension exposes off-site WIP and aging data through OData v4 / REST API pages, and we provide a sample Power BI dashboard you can point at it. We also include a sample Power Automate flow that reads aging data and emails subcontractors when work is overdue. If you use Dataverse, an optional sync lets a Power Apps vendor portal read the same status.
