# Odoo CPQ for manufacturers, without the chaos.

> If you already run Odoo, or want a manufacturing-native platform, Odoo CPQ is the fastest path to accurate, rule-based quoting. Parix Digital configures and extends Odoo so your sales team quotes complex products correctly, and every accepted quote flows straight into a bill of materials and manufacturing order. Configured for US operations: imperial units, USD, and sales-tax-aware pricing.

## Key takeaways
- Odoo CPQ gives manufacturers rule-based product configuration, dynamic pricing, and one-click quotes on a platform that already runs production.
- Parix Digital configures and extends Odoo so an accepted quote auto-generates the bill of materials and manufacturing order.
- We localize Odoo CPQ for US operations: imperial units, USD, and sales-tax-aware totals, with ASME and ANSI compliant configuration rules.

## The reality: Odoo out of the box is not a manufacturing configurator, yet.
- **Standard Variants Are Not Enough** — Basic Odoo variants cannot express real compatibility rules, so reps still build complex quotes by hand.
- **Pricing Logic Lives Outside Odoo** — Component and tier pricing sits in spreadsheets, so quotes drift from the price book.
- **Quotes Do Not Become BOMs** — Without configuration, an accepted order is re-keyed into a BOM and manufacturing order.
- **No Guardrails on Discounts** — Reps override prices with no approval flow, and margin leaks.
- **US Localization Is Manual** — Imperial units and state sales tax are handled case by case instead of by the system.
- **Engineering Is the Bottleneck** — Every non-standard configuration routes back to engineering before a number can go out.

## Standard Odoo vs Odoo CPQ by Parix
**Without CPQ**
- Manual quotes for complex products: Standard variants cannot capture real compatibility, so reps build by hand.
- Pricing drifts from the price book: Component and tier logic lives outside Odoo in spreadsheets.
- Re-keyed into a BOM: An accepted order is manually turned into a bill of materials.
- Unapproved discounts: Price overrides happen with no approval flow.

**With Parix CPQ**
- Guided, valid configuration: Reps self-serve correct configurations inside Odoo Sales.
- Pricing enforced in Odoo: Attribute and component pricing lives in the system, tax-aware.
- Auto BOM and MO: Accepted quotes create the BOM and manufacturing order in Odoo MRP.
- Approval-gated discounts: Margin guardrails and workflows protect every deal.

## Odoo CPQ by manufacturing vertical
### Metalworking & Fabrication (CNC machinery, fabricated assemblies)
Without CPQ:
- Custom builds quoted manually
- BOMs assembled after the sale
- Frequent spec rework

With CPQ:
- Rule-based configuration in Odoo
- Dynamic BOM on quote acceptance
- Valid builds only

### Material Handling Equipment (Conveyors, hoists, storage systems)
Without CPQ:
- Option compatibility checked by hand
- Long quote turnaround
- Pricing inconsistency

With CPQ:
- Compatibility rules enforced
- Minutes to a correct quote
- One price book, tax-aware

### Food Processing Machinery (Cutting, packaging, and line equipment)
Without CPQ:
- Compliance options missed
- Manual accessory pricing
- Disconnected from production

With CPQ:
- Mandatory compliance enforced
- Bundled machine and accessory pricing
- Straight to manufacturing order

## Process
1. **Discover** — Map products, attributes, pricing, and your Odoo MRP flow.
2. **Configure** — Build the configurator, pricing, and rules in Odoo and Studio.
3. **Integrate** — Wire quote acceptance to BOM and manufacturing order creation.
4. **Launch & Support** — Localize, train, go live, and refine with SLA support.

- Accepted quotes become BOMs and manufacturing orders automatically
- US localization: imperial units, USD, and sales-tax-aware totals
- ASME and ANSI compliant configuration rules
- Certified Odoo consultants and developers
- Phased delivery with training and ongoing support

## FAQ
### Does Odoo have a CPQ module?
Odoo includes product variants and a product configurator, but real CPQ for complex manufacturing needs configuration: compatibility rules, component pricing, approval workflows, and automatic BOM generation. Parix Digital configures and extends Odoo, including custom logic in Odoo Studio, into a full CPQ engine.

### Can Odoo CPQ create a bill of materials from a quote?
Yes. We set up dynamic BOMs so that when a configured quote is accepted, Odoo generates the correct bill of materials and manufacturing order in Odoo MRP, with the right routes and work centers.

### Will it work for US operations?
Yes. We localize Odoo CPQ for the US with imperial units, USD pricing, and sales-tax-aware quoting, and we encode ASME and ANSI compliance rules so only valid, compliant configurations can be quoted.

### We already run Odoo. Can you add CPQ to it?
Yes. If you already run Odoo we extend your existing instance with the configurator, pricing, and BOM automation rather than starting over, so you keep your data and history.

### How long does an Odoo CPQ build take?
A focused Odoo CPQ rollout typically goes live in 8 to 12 weeks depending on product complexity and rule count, delivered in phases so value comes early.
