You can set the owner of stored items in your inventory using the
Consignment option
found under the Settings menu. Although the product will be offered by
the shop, the supplier will really own the item up until it is purchased
by a customer. This strategy makes it simple to return unsold goods
to the vendors. In the case of consignment, the retailers are not
required to maintain a continuous inventory.
You can enable the Consignment option under the Settings module's
Traceability tab. You can use this feature to give each item you
receive an owner when you add it to your inventory. Let's make a
receipt for the stock that was consigned and give it a new owner.
You can include the consignee's name in the Assign Owner area while
creating the receipt. Using the Add a Line button in the Operations
page, you can specify the consignment stock and its quantity. Here,
Anita Oliver has been designated as the product's consignee. Anita
Oliver received 35 units of the product
from us. Clicking the Validate button is an option. The Customizable
Desk in 35 units has been delivered to Anita Oliver.
The Moves History report and consignment information can be
viewed in detail. The consignee's
name will appear in the From Owner column. We may deduce
from this information that Anita Oliver oversees the
management of 35 quantities of the product. Odoo17 allocates
owners to accepted products in this manner.
Advanced Scheduling
Odoo17 provides an Advanced Scheduling option in the
Inventory module, which can be accessible from the Settings
menu, for scheduling various
tasks. You can use this feature to make sure you have
adequate time to prepare tasks relating to the product.
By turning on the Security Lead Time for Sales option,
deliveries can be scheduled earlier to avoid delays.
Here, you can choose a margin that will be used on the
anticipated delivery date. To account for unanticipated
supply chain delays, the product will be scheduled for
procurement and delivery a certain number of days before
the actual promised delivery date. To avoid delays, you
can schedule requests for quotations sooner by turning
on the Security Lead Time for Purchase option. Set the
margin, and the vendor lead time will reflect it. To
account for an unforeseen vendor delay, buy orders for
restocking
products will be generated by the system and scheduled
for particular days before the days specified in the
margin.
You can specify the number of days that must pass before
a purchase order is confirmed in the Days to Purchase
box.
