To create a new product in Odoo, go to the Inventory<\/strong> module, then navigate to Products \u2192 Product Master<\/strong>. Click the + New<\/strong> button to open the product creation form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Begin by filling in the required fields such as the Product Name<\/strong>, Product Category<\/strong> and Brand<\/strong>. These details are mandatory because they help organize and categorize your inventory, making it easier to manage and analyze your product data in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the basic details are entered, select the appropriate HSN Code<\/strong> for the item. Odoo automatically applies the corresponding Customer Tax<\/strong> based on the HSN configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the General Information<\/strong> tab of the product creation screen, scroll down to the Traceability<\/strong> section. Here, you will find the Tracking<\/strong> field, which offers three options \u2014 By Unique Serial Number<\/strong>, By Lots<\/strong>, and No Tracking<\/strong>. These options determine how Odoo monitors and manages your product movements in the inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By default it is selected as No Tracking<\/strong>, it means the product doesn\u2019t require individual serial or lot tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a result, the Valuation by Lot\/Serial Number<\/strong> checkbox will not be displayed. This happens because valuation by lot or serial number is not applicable when no tracking is enabled. By choosing As Tracking is set as No Tracking, Manufacturing Date<\/strong> and Expiration Date<\/strong> fields are automatically hidden in the product master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This behavior ensures that manufacturing and expiry details are not recorded for items that don\u2019t require tracking, such as consumables or general-use materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Products categorized as No Tracking<\/strong> do not require a GKM% configuration. Even if a value is entered, the system will not trigger any alerts if the margin does not meet the GKM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When a product is set as No-Tracking<\/strong> in Odoo, the system requires either MRP<\/strong> or Product Cost<\/strong> to be selected for pricing rules. You cannot select Landed Cost for these products. If you try, a validation error will appear: \u201cPlease select MRP or Product Cost based for this product.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, Set the MRP<\/strong>, assign a appropriate pricelist<\/strong>, choose the Unit of Measure (UOM)<\/strong>, and map the vendor<\/strong>. Once all the information is filled in, save the product<\/strong>. The product will then be created in the system and ready for procurement, inventory, and billing processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In Odoo Managing products becomes even simpler when dealing with items that don\u2019t require tracking.
