Identify which machine requirements are approved, which are estimating assumptions and which still need engineering decisions. Link each unresolved item to an owner and release condition. The handoff should authorize specific purchasing and assembly work without implying that every component or customer option is final simply because the sales order has been accepted.
Understand the decision
A hypothetical customer accepts a packaging machine quote but has not confirmed its available utilities or preferred control option. A long-lead frame can be ordered, while other components depend on those answers. The planner needs a precise release boundary and a visible date for resolving each outstanding requirement.
Work through the requirements
- Classify requirements by approval and uncertainty.
- Define what can be purchased before full design release.
- Assign unresolved customer inputs and decision deadlines.
| Record or decision | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Configuration baseline | State approved options and assumptions. |
| Release decision | Authorize a defined scope of work. |
| Open requirements | Track owner, dependency and target decision. |

Watch for this failure
Treating sales acceptance as complete engineering approval can commit money against unresolved requirements. Keep the release scope explicit and connect later decisions to their purchasing and schedule consequences, particularly for components that are expensive or difficult to return.
Continue the evaluation
This example defines what to verify, rather than promising a particular Odoo feature. Keep a record of the demonstrated result, configuration, unresolved gaps and person who accepts it.
