TDS Manufacturing ERP · on Odoo

Know what every production order really costs, before month-end.

TDS Manufacturing ERP runs one thread from demand to margin: forecasts, planning, purchasing, the shop floor, quality and costing, all the way to group finance. Standard where Odoo is strong. Engineered where your plant is different.

Margin is made on the shop floor, and discovered at month-end.

  • “Missing materials stop the line, and we find out when it stops.”
  • “Our product cost lives in a spreadsheet, and we close weeks after month-end.”
  • “Which plant, which product and which customer actually make us money?”
  • “Three systems, fragile interfaces, and a licence bill that keeps rising.”

TDS Plan-to-Profit: one thread from demand to margin.

01

Demand drives one plan

Sales forecasts merge into one multi-level MRP run. Planning creates draft orders first, so planners review them before anything is released.

02

Formula production

TDS-built formula bills of materials: each component a percentage of the batch, with validity dates. Change the batch size and every component follows.

03

Sheet decomposition

TDS-built: one sheet becomes many parts, each costed by its share of weight and machine time. Offcuts come back into stock as by-products.

04

Quality and traceability

Quality checks at the stages you choose; a failed check stops the unit. Lots and serial numbers from goods received to delivery.

05

Cost a CFO can audit

Material, machine time, labour and overhead, landed cost and scrap, each by a rule you can trace, per production order.

06

One platform for the group

A company per legal entity, plants as warehouses and work centres, intercompany sales and purchases created automatically and eliminated on consolidation.

Standard where Odoo is strong. Engineered where your plant is different.

Odoo's manufacturing core is broad and proven. We keep it standard so it stays upgradeable, and build only the industry logic it lacks.

Standard Odoo, configured properly

  • Manufacturing orders, BOMs, routings and work centres
  • MRP and work-centre capacity
  • Quality control points and checks
  • Maintenance
  • Inventory with lots, serial numbers and barcode
  • Standard, average and FIFO costing; landed cost
  • Multi-company and consolidation

TDS-built industry logic, live at TDS clients

  • Formula (percentage-of-batch) bills of materials with validity dates
  • Sales forecasts merged into one multi-level MRP run; draft-order planning
  • Sheet decomposition with cost split by weight share and machine time; offcuts as by-products
  • Production orders linked to the sales orders behind them, for margin by product and customer
  • Cost figures visible only to the roles that need them
  • Purchase-request approval cycle; order-cost, multi-level requirement and stock-ageing reports

Leaving SAP, Dynamics or an older Odoo?

TDS is moving MAR Group (SONAI) from SAP S/4HANA Cloud to Odoo 19, and has moved companies from SAP Business One and Microsoft Dynamics. Master data and open balances move at cutover; historical data can move as additional scope, agreed and priced in discovery. Custom work is kept separable so it moves with new Odoo versions: General Aromatic's modules were carried from Odoo 14 to 17.

A large programme in controlled phases.

  1. Discover
  2. Design
  3. Build
  4. Test
  5. Deploy
  6. Evolve

Every requirement is classed as standard, configuration or TDS build before it is priced. Each demo and test cycle ends with signed minutes, change requests are priced before work starts, and support is handed over module by module after go-live.

Questions

Who is TDS Manufacturing ERP for?

Manufacturers and manufacturing groups in Egypt and Saudi Arabia: paints, chemicals and fragrances; metal, cladding and fabrication; plastics; engineered and assembled products; and food producers that need a full ERP.

Is it standard Odoo?

Its core is Odoo's standard manufacturing, inventory, quality, maintenance and accounting. TDS adds the industry logic standard Odoo does not ship, such as formula BOMs and sheet decomposition with weight and machine-time costing.

Can we move from SAP or Microsoft Dynamics?

Yes. TDS is moving MAR Group (SONAI) from SAP S/4HANA Cloud to Odoo 19, and has moved companies from SAP Business One and Microsoft Dynamics. Scope, data and cutover are agreed in discovery; historical data migration is additional scope.

We have several companies and plants. Can one system hold them?

Yes: one database with a company per legal entity, plants as warehouses and work centres, intercompany sales and purchases created automatically and eliminated on consolidation.

What is a plant diagnostic?

A working session on one of your product families, traced from order to margin, with the gaps in data and process listed. We agree its scope and timing with you.

Who delivers it?

TDS, an Odoo Gold Partner, delivers it with its team in Egypt; in Saudi Arabia, TDS Saudi Arabia (DIS), part of TDS, an Odoo Gold Partner.
