Defining the workflow for your business


Much like configuring the CRM application, oftentimes the most complex part of setting up a purchasing and manufacturing system is not the ERP software itself. Instead, the real challenge is to understand the business requirements and how the current processes can best be implemented. If you have never set up a purchasing and manufacturing system before, it is highly recommended that you supplement your knowledge with additional source material on the subject. Refer to Appendix, Locating Additional Odoo Resources, for references to additional resources on ERP and manufacturing.
