At a Glance
The facts of Manufacturing Backdate, version 0.1, in one place. Published by Viindoo.
How It Works
One prompt, at the one moment it matters.
Mark it done, and say when
The order carries the real completion date, not the moment somebody clicked the button.
The orders as a whole
Nothing changes in how orders are planned, confirmed or produced.
And the valuation follows
The layers the completion produced carry the back-dated date, which is what keeps a closed period honest.
What You Get
A date and time prompt when a manufacturing order is marked done
The order's finished date, the stock moves and the valuation layers all take it
The accounting period follows, so entries land in the month the work happened
Restricted to a group, so not everybody can back-date production
Refuses a completion date before the order's start date
Work orders and work-centre productivity records follow the same date

What This App Does Not Do
Read this before you buy. Everything below is something the app deliberately leaves to another app or to you.
If the accounting period is locked, the entry cannot be back-dated into it - that lock stays Odoo's.
A back-order is a different manufacturing order with its own dates.
Finishing before starting is refused, with the two dates in the message.
Only users in the back-date group are asked for a date; everyone else completes as usual.
Works Well With

viin_stock_backdateWho Should Use Manufacturing Backdate?
Production manager
Records Friday's output as Friday's, on Monday.
Cost accountant
Gets the valuation in the period the material was actually consumed.
Controller
Decides who may back-date, because the group is assignable.
Auditor
Sees one date on the order, the moves and the entries - not three.

Step 1: Navigate to Manufacturing > Operations > Manufacturing Orders, press Create to create a manufacturing order. Press Confirm.
Step 2: On the manufacturing order, on the Work Orders tab, press Start to start a work order. Now, a pop-up will appear allowing you to select a day in the past.
Step 3: Similarly, when you press Pause or Done, the system also allows selecting a day in the past. Then it will calculate the Real Duration base on the Start and the Pause/Done date.
Step 4: Press Mark as Done to finish the manufacturing order. Now, the system will show a pop-up allowing the user to select a day in the past as the Date Done.
Step 5: Navigate to Inventory > Reporting > Stock Moves, delete the default filter, type the manufacturing order's Reference to the search box and select the Reference criteria.
