Read BOM Operations

BOM operations are individual operations that are performed on the item. This means that, despite having the same name as other operations on other BOMs, the items shown are unique.

So even if you see duplicates in Odoo, they each have their own underlying unique operationId for that line in the BOM.

The best way to manage operations is to be consistent in your naming convention for your operations.

In other words, if you are going to assemble something, always give it the exact same name (e.g. Assembly or Assemble).

Choose what to display

The work centers and operations both depend on mpr.bom.operation_ids. You'll want to display one of the following:

• The mapped work center or stations, read-only (e.g. Drill Station 1, Galvanization, Powder Coating)

• The mapped operation names (e.g. Drill, Galvanize, Powder Coat)

For more complicated mappings, please contact us through the support portal.

BOM operations can often include one or more of the following items in the table below:

Destructive operation	Non-Destructive operation
Punching	Painting
Welding	Assembling
Galvanizing	Powder Coating
etc.	Wiring

To read these operations from the BOM, we map to the Odoo property

mrp.bom.operation_id

Create a new Property Mapping with the following settings:

Setting	Value
Property Name / Header	BOM Operations
Accessor	bomOperations
Primary Property	(Unmapped)
Secondary Property	mrp.bom.operation_ids
Update Odoo on Submit	false
Rendering Type	Advanced Multi Select List
List Display Selector	displayName
List Value Selector	id
List items	Here is a sample of what you can insert, but it can be anything, whatever you use most frequently [more on this below]** [ { "workCenterId": 2, "name": "Drill", "value": { "sequence": 10, "name": "Drill", "workcenter_id": 2, "time_mode": "manual", "time_mode_batch": 10, "time_cycle_manual": 60 } }, { "workCenterId": 1, "name": "Galvanize", "value": { "sequence": 20, "name": "Galvanize", "workcenter_id": 1, "time_mode": "manual", "time_mode_batch": 10, "time_cycle_manual": 60 } }, { "workCenterId": 3, "name": "Punch", "value": { "sequence": 30, "name": "Punch", "workcenter_id": 3, "time_mode": "manual", "time_mode_batch": 10, "time_cycle_manual": 60 } }, ]
Enabled	true
Prefer Odoo Value	true

** When creating this list, and you only want to read the values, you'll want to specify at least the Work center id, and the name of the operation. If you also want to write the values back to Odoo, then you'll have to specify the entire object required to add new operations and the default settings for the operation.

Writing BOM operations is explained in the next topic Write BOM Operations

Some BOM operation properties that are available for reading are listed below. The list is not exhaustive and you may customize your own (See the Odoo Configuration options > Models > mrp.routing.workcenter):

Property	Type	Availability	Required for reading in SharpSync
active	bool	16, 17, 18
name	string	16, 17, 18
bom_id	integer	16, 17, 18
workcenter_id	integer	16,17,18
time_mode_batch	integer	16,17,18
time_cycle_manual	integer	16,17,18
note	string	16,17,18
sequence	integer	16,17,18

After adding the new Property Mapping, add an import rule

Setting	Value
Type	import
Name	Text Manipulation
Process for {Primary}	false
Process for Odoo	true
JavaScript expression	if (!s) return []; if (Array.isArray(s)) return s.map((item) => item.workcenter_id["id"]); if (typeof s === "string") { try { const parsed = JSON.parse(s); if (Array.isArray(parsed)) { return parsed.map((item) => item.workcenter_id["id"]); } else { console.log("Parsed JSON is not an array, it is " + typeof parsed, parsed); return []; } } catch (e) { console.log("Invalid JSON string:", s, "Error:", e.message); return []; } } console.log("Input is not an array or valid JSON string, it is " + typeof s, s); return [];
