Instructions
Instruction video: Stock Internal Transit Valuation
1. Create a new storage location
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Settings, and enable the Storage Locations and Multi-Step Routes features. Press Save to store the changes.
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Warehouses, and press Create to create the Hai Phong Warehouse. Press Save to store the information.
Then click on Edit and select Resupply From: Main Warehouse.
2. Configure accounting accounts for Transit location
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Locations, turn off the default filters, and search for the Transit location. Then, you need to set up the stock valuation accounts for the incoming and outgoing goods.
3. Create and receive products in the main warehouse
Create a new product and activate the following routes:
- Hai Phong Warehouse: Resupply from Main Warehouse;
- Replenish on Order (MTO).
Then you need to create a purchase order and receive products at the Main Warehouse.
Note: You need to un-archive the Replenish on Order (MTO) route.
4. Create a sales order with delivery from another warehouse
Go to Sales > Orders > Quotations to create a sales quotation in the Sales app. In the Other Info tab, set up delivery from the Hai Phong Warehouse.
Press Confirm to have the following 3 warehouse transfers:
- Transfer 1: From Main warehouse to Transit location;
- Transfer 2: From Transit location to Hai Phong warehouse;
- Transfer 3: From Hai Phong warehouse > Customer.
When the first transfer is ready, click Validate to confirm the delivery from the Main warehouse to the Transit location. The respective journal items are created according to the accounting accounts set up on the Transit location.
At this moment, the second transfer will be ready. When stocks are delivered to the Hai Phong warehouse, the warehouse staff go to the transfer slip and press Validate to confirm the incoming stocks at the Hai Phong warehouse. Journal items recording the incoming stocks are created accordingly.
Finally, goods are ready to be delivered to the customer. Press Validate at the third transfer to complete the delivery.
Note: You can use the Minimum stock rule (MTS) for the above workflow. On the other hand, you can also manually create warehouse transfers to the transit location instead of using the automatic replenishment rules.
5. Inter-company / inter-branch transfers
Besides the intra-company scenario above, the module also automates stock transfers between two companies of the same group - for example a subsidiary and its parent, or two branches - routed through a single, shared Inter-company transit location (stock.stock_location_inter_wh), a transit location that does not belong to any company.
Automatically create the inter-company / inter-branch route
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Warehouses, open the warehouse that needs to be resupplied and, in the Resupply From field, select a warehouse belonging to the parent company or to one of its subsidiaries. Saving the warehouse automatically generates the corresponding two-leg supply route through the Inter-company transit location - no manual multi-company route configuration is required.
Two transit-location scenarios must be distinguished:
- Intra-company transit - the transit location has a Company set (e.g. the per-company WH/Transit automatically created by System). Used for multi-step routes and resupply between warehouses of the same legal entity. Goods stored here are still part of the company's inventory.
- Inter-company transit - the transit location has no Company (the shared Inter-company transit location, stock.stock_location_inter_wh). Goods stored here belong to no company in the system; they represent goods that have left one legal entity but have not yet been received by another.
Configure the accounting accounts on the Inter-company transit location
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Locations, turn off the default filters, and open the Inter-company transit location. Configure both the Stock Valuation Account (Incoming) and Stock Valuation Account (Outgoing) fields with the holding account(s) that should record goods in transit between the two companies.
Core Odoo only consults the destination location's Stock Valuation Account (Incoming) when the destination is a production or inventory-adjustment location, and otherwise falls back to the product category's Stock Output account - which would incorrectly post the outbound leg as a cost of goods sold even though no sale has occurred yet. This module corrects that: the outbound side of an inter-company transfer always debits the transit location's configured Stock Valuation Account (Incoming). The inbound side needs no correction: core already credits the transit location's Stock Valuation Account (Outgoing) on the receiving side.
Automatic valuation and accounting entries on both legs
When the outbound transfer (origin company to the Inter-company transit location) is validated, the module creates the outbound stock valuation layer and posts the corresponding journal entry in the origin company, using the accounts configured above.
When the inbound transfer (Inter-company transit location to the destination company's warehouse) is validated, the module automatically creates the matching stock valuation layer and posts the matching journal entry in the destination company - always for the same value as the outbound leg, so the transit holding account nets back to zero once both legs are done. This holds even when the two companies use a different costing method, or record their inventory value in different currencies: in the cross-currency case, the value is converted to the destination company's currency at the exchange rate of the move's date.
Lot/serial identity preserved across companies
For lot- or serial-tracked products, the destination company receives the goods under a lot of the same name as the origin company's lot (reusing an existing lot of that name if one already exists there, otherwise creating it automatically) - so the product can still be traced from the origin lot through to the destination lot.
