Manufacturing / Nimex Solutions

Plan every order before the factory starts building it.

Made-to-order equipment, batch process plants and laboratory kits each need a different plan. Nimex implements Odoo Manufacturing and engineers the planning layer around it: order positions, batches, lab quality and labels in one connected flow.

Where manufacturers lose control

Four moments where a generic ERP plans too early or too late.

We hear the same four problems in made-to-order shops, process plants and laboratories. Each has an answer, and we tell you whether it comes from standard Odoo or from engineering we have already delivered.

  • Procurement fires before anyone decides

    Confirming a sales order creates manufacturing and purchase orders at once, before a recipe, a supplier or the drawings are settled for a one-off configuration.

    Built by NimexA planning stage holds each order position until make, buy or subcontract is set per component.

  • Batches never match the order book

    Bulk is made in kilograms and filled into pieces; kettles cap every batch. Several orders for one colour have to become a few batches and many filling orders.

    Built by NimexA seven-step planner consolidates demand, nets stock and caps batches by machine.

  • Quality lives on paper

    Lab limits differ per product, a failed sample needs a second one, and the result has to stop the order, not a clipboard on the wall.

    Built by NimexA criteria library on Odoo Quality with repeat-until-pass sampling.

  • Margin is known after delivery

    The real cost of a project shows up weeks later, spread over purchases, subcontractors and site expenses that nobody tied back to the unit.

    Built by NimexLive cost per order position, then margin per delivered serial and project.

From order position to the shop floor

One order position, planned, approved and released.

A confirmed order for two mixing skids does not start production. The planner decides supply per component, the drawing arrives, and only then are the manufacturing, purchase and subcontracting orders released, stamped with the project and position.

Built by Nimex · Manufacturing Planning Cockpit
  1. Held at confirmationThe sales order is confirmed; the manufactured position waits in a draft plan instead of firing procurement.
  2. Supply per componentManufacture, purchase with vendor and currency, or subcontract; undetermined blocks release.
  3. Drawings before releaseEach required drawing is a file request per project, order and position, closed on upload.
  4. Approve one positionApproval releases this line's manufacturing, purchase and subcontracting orders only.
  5. On the scheduleOrders land on the work centres, stamped with project and position; later changes are logged.

The cockpit, drawing requests and live cost roll-up are a Nimex-built extension of Odoo Manufacturing, Purchase and Documents. Work centres, manufacturing orders and the planning view are standard Odoo.

Functional capabilities

What your plant gets, and where each piece comes from.

Standard Odoo covers the core of manufacturing well. The Nimex pieces below already run at manufacturers; the last group is engineering we offer and show on sample data.

Engineering we offer; not presented as delivered

  • What we build

    Machine and PLC data into work orders

    Counters, cycle times and stops read from your machines into Odoo work orders, where the machine offers an accessible interface.

  • What we build

    Product configurator for your option rules

    Sales picks options; the rules produce the bill of materials, routing and price for the order position.

    Planner dashboards for your bottleneck

    A load view of the work centre that limits your output, with the orders that will be late if nothing moves.

Inside the software

Batches, lab results and labels, as your teams will see them.

Three screens from the planning and quality flow, with invented sample data. Field names and states follow the software they come from.

A failed sample opens the next one automatically; the batch cannot be filled until every criterion passes.

Repeat until pass. Criteria come from a shared library with product-specific limits and generate Odoo quality points.

Production dashboard

The planner's week on one screen.

Positions waiting for release, batches planned against produced, and margin per project, built from the same records the plant works in, so the numbers are the operations.

  • Positions blocked, with the first unmet condition as the reason
  • Planned and actual output per batch, with scrap and yield loss
  • Margin per project from delivered serials and expenses

All integrations and their status

Nimex engineering for manufacturers

We start from your routing, not from a module list.

Our engineers walk the order from quotation to shipment with your planner and close each gap with the smallest upgrade-safe extension.

  • 01

    Route and warehouse blueprint

    In-house and subcontracted production routes, so every order line flows to the right manufacturing, purchase or subcontracting document.

  • 02

    Planning layers on standard MRP

    Position planning, batch planning and plan-driven procurement as extensions, never forks of Odoo's manufacturing core.

  • 03

    Shop-floor and lab applications

    Tablet screens built around the operator's task: sign in, see your lane, produce, print.

  • 04

    Data migration of BoMs and parts

    Smart imports with dry runs and logs, so hundreds of recipes arrive matched and checked.

  • 05

    Labels and production documents

    Serial labels, packing lists and work plans printed from the records, in Turkish and English.

  • 06

    Reports the planner trusts

    Planned against actual, margin per project and blocked positions, read straight from operations.
