Odoo Quality: checks where defects actually start

Odoo Quality puts inspections inside the operations that create defects: goods receipts, work orders and deliveries. Operators record a result at the moment they do the work, so nothing depends on a clipboard reaching the office.

Overview

The short version

We design quality control points with your quality manager, set the frequency and tolerances, and connect failures to alerts and corrective actions so problems are tracked to closure.

ERP Builders is an independent Odoo services company and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Odoo S.A. “Odoo” is a trademark of Odoo S.A.

01

What we set up in Odoo Quality

Every control point answers three questions: where, how often, and what happens on a fail.

Quality control points

Checks on receipts, specific work-order operations or deliveries, by product or product category.

Check types

Pass/fail, measurements with tolerances, instructions, photos and worksheets.

Sampling frequency

Every unit, a percentage, or periodic checks, depending on risk and volume.

Quality alerts

Alerts raised from failed checks, with root cause, corrective action and owner.

Traceability

Lot and serial tracking so a supplier issue can be traced forward to every customer delivery.

02

Built for audits

ISO 9001, food safety and customer audits all ask the same thing: show the check was done, by whom, when and with what result. Odoo Quality keeps that record against the lot, the work order and the operator.

We also build the reports your auditors ask for, so preparing for an audit is an export rather than a week of searching.
