A real-world example of a custom product

In Odoo, you manufacture products by creating manufacturing orders. For our example, we will be printing T-shirts that have a custom-designed logo. The basic manufacturing process involves using a screen to apply ink to each of the T-shirts. For now, we don't need to know all the details of this process to begin using Odoo to help schedule and track the manufacturing process of the product.

The basic steps in the process are simple:

1. Define a bill of materials that determines what items are needed to produce the final product.
2. Use a manufacturing order to print a design on the blank T-shirts.
3. Deliver the printed T-shirts to a customer.
