Guidance on Costing, Shipment, and Scrap Handling in OFBiz Manufacturing

Hi all,

I hope you're doing well.

I've been actively exploring the OFBiz manufacturing module and have
developed a solid understanding of key concepts like MRP, Job Shop, BOMs,
and Routing. As I continue building on this foundation, I’m seeking
guidance on a couple of advanced areas:

   1.

   *Costing and Shipment Integration*
   While I understand their individual roles, I’d appreciate insights into
   how costing and shipment features are typically integrated into the
   manufacturing flow in a real-world OFBiz implementation.
   2.

   *Handling Scrap Material*
   What is the recommended approach for managing scrap or waste material
   during the production process? Should these be modeled as separate
   products, or is there a native mechanism to track them within the system?

Any suggestions, implementation tips, or documentation references would be
greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Best regards,
Ilma
