Create Security Lead Time
Following the intro, this video provides a technical step-by-step guide on how to configure these safety margins within the Odoo settings and product forms.
- Global Configuration: The video shows how to navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Settings to enable “Security Lead Time for Sales” or “Security Lead Time for Purchase” and set a default number of days.
- Specific Product Lead Times: The video demonstrates how to set lead times on individual product forms under the Inventory tab, allowing for different buffers for high-priority or slow-moving items.
- Purchase Lead Time: The video shows how to add a “Vendor Lead Time” on the Purchase tab of a product, which tells Odoo how long a specific supplier usually takes to deliver.
- Verification: The video concludes by showing a Sales Order where the “Expected Date” is automatically calculated based on these added safety margins.
