How to Manually Reorder the Product in Odoo 17 | Reordering Rules in Odoo 17 | Odoo 17 Inventory
1In Odoo, a manual reordering rule allows you to set up a product to not automatically trigger a purchase order when its stock level falls below a certain threshold. Instead, the system informs you that a reorder is needed, but you need to manually initiate the purchase yourself.
1. Setting the rule:
You define a minimum quantity for the product. When the stock level reaches or falls below this minimum, the reordering rule is activated.
Crucially, you set the trigger for the rule to be manual. This means the system won't automatically generate a purchase order even if the stock falls below the minimum.
2. When the rule is activated:
When the stock level dips below the minimum quantity, the product will appear on the replenishment dashboard in the Inventory app.
Odoo doesn't automatically create a purchase order, but it provides visual cues to indicate the need for reordering.
3. Manual action is required:
You need to review the replenishment dashboard and identify products requiring action.
Once you decide to reorder a product, you can manually create a purchase order for the desired quantity.
Here are some scenarios where manual reordering might be used:
New products: When introducing new products, there might not be enough historical data to establish reliable automated reordering rules.
Seasonal products: For products with significant seasonal fluctuations in demand, manual adjustments might be necessary to account for these variations.
Unique or custom orders: For one-time purchases or customized products, manual reordering provides more control and flexibility.
While manual reordering offers greater control, it also comes with potential drawbacks:
Increased risk of stockouts: Without automated triggers, there's a higher risk of failing to reorder in time, leading to stockouts and lost sales.
Time-consuming process: Manually monitoring inventory and initiating orders can be time-consuming, especially for larger businesses with a wide range of products.
Increased risk of human error: Manual processes are more prone to human error, which can lead to overstocking, understocking, or placing incorrect orders.
