This workflow covers setting stock thresholds and understanding how the system triggers purchase or manufacturing orders to restock products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Access Reordering Rules:<\/strong> From the <strong>Inventory<\/strong> module, navigate to <strong>Configuration<\/strong> -&gt; <strong>Reordering Rules<\/strong>. Alternatively, you can access this directly from a specific product form by clicking the <strong>Reordering Rules<\/strong> smart button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create a New Rule:<\/strong> Click the <strong>New<\/strong> button to define a rule for a specific product. You will need to select the <strong>Location<\/strong> (e.g., WH\/Stock) where the inventory should be monitored.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Define Min and Max Quantities:<\/strong> * <strong>Min Quantity:<\/strong> Set the &#8220;safety stock&#8221; level. When the forecasted stock falls below this number, Odoo triggers a replenishment.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Max Quantity:<\/strong> Set the target stock level. Odoo will calculate the exact amount needed to reach this number.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Select the Trigger Type:<\/strong> Choose between <strong>Manual<\/strong> or <strong>Auto<\/strong>.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Auto:<\/strong> Odoo automatically creates a Request for Quotation (RFQ) or Manufacturing Order as soon as the minimum is reached.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Manual:<\/strong> The system adds the product to the <strong>Replenishment Report<\/strong> for a manager to review and confirm before any orders are created.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Assign a Route:<\/strong> Ensure the product has a route defined (e.g., <strong>Buy<\/strong> or <strong>Manufacture<\/strong>). For the &#8220;Buy&#8221; route, make sure a <strong>Vendor<\/strong> is assigned in the product&#8217;s Purchase tab so Odoo knows where to send the order.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Process the Replenishment:<\/strong> If using the &#8220;Manual&#8221; trigger, navigate to <strong>Inventory<\/strong> -&gt; <strong>Operations<\/strong> -&gt; <strong>Replenishment<\/strong>. Review the suggested quantities and click <strong>Order Once<\/strong> or <strong>Automate<\/strong> to generate the necessary documents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Monitor the Result:<\/strong> Once triggered, you can find the newly created draft orders in the <strong>Purchase<\/strong> or <strong>Manufacturing<\/strong> modules, ready for validation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The steps below guide you through the process of automating your replenishment cycle.
