Work centers planning gantt chart and other planning tools

Hello!

We have a client who's working with v17 CE. Their main issue right now is planning and managing their manufacturing capacity, as in work center availability and determining how many machines they'd actually need to fulfill manufacturing demand. We showed them Enterprise's work center planning gantt chart, and they seemed to like it. With that in mind, could you recommend some alternatives as well as complimentary tools available for Community?

Thank you!

    Hi Samuel,
    That’s a great use case. We actually developed a planning tool for HR resource management that might serve as inspiration for your client's manufacturing planning needs. You can check it out here:
    https://github.com/OCA/resource/pull/5

    It uses the web_timeline module (https://github.com/OCA/web/tree/17.0/web_timeline) to provide a Gantt-style view for scheduling personnel. While it’s designed for HR purposes, the same structure could potentially be adapted to visualize work center availability and manufacturing capacity.

    As far as I know, a dedicated Gantt for manufacturing planning in CE doesn't currently exist, but this could be a solid starting point if you're considering a custom solution. Happy to chat further if you'd like help shaping that idea.

    Best,
