+## factoryMethods
+
+**Type:** `Object`
+**Default:** `{ generate: false }`
+
+Generate factory methods for DTOs (Data Transfer Objects) initialized with safe default values. Useful for testing and initializing empty state.
+Functionality handles OpenAPI `readOnly` and `writeOnly` flags to generate appropriate payload structures:
+- **Required properties:** Always included in the factory output, regardless of their visibility flags.
+- **Optional `readOnly` properties:** Always omitted from the factory output, as they would be dropped by the server.
+- **Optional `writeOnly` properties:** Always included in the factory output (even if `includeOptionalProperty` is set to `false`).

+```ts title="orval.config.ts"
+export default defineConfig({
+  petstore: {
+    output: {
+      factoryMethods: {
+        functionNamePrefix: 'create',
+        mode: 'split',
+        includeOptionalProperty: true,
+        outputDirectory: `#output.workspace.schemas`,
+      },
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### functionNamePrefix
+
+**Type:** `String`
+**Default:** `'create'`
+
+Prefix for the generated factory function names.
+
+### mode
+
+**Type:** `'single' | 'split' | 'single-split'`
+**Default:** `'split'`
+
+Where to generate the factory methods:
+- `single`: Appends the factory function to the schema file.
+- `split`: Creates a `{schema}.factory.ts` with factory method. By default it is placed next to schema file.
+- `single-split`: Aggregates all factory methods into a single `factoryMethods.ts` file.
+
+### includeOptionalProperty
+
+**Type:** `boolean`
+**Default:** `true`
+
+Determines whether optional schema properties are included in the default factory output.
+
+### outputDirectory
+
+**Type:** `String`
+**Default:** `#output.workspace.schemas`
+
+Defaults to the value configured in `#output.workspace.schemas`.
+Determines where factory methods will be generated (can be used to generated methods away from schema directory).
+Takes effect only when used `mode` is `split` or `single-split`.
