Odoo Inventory Management FAQ
Does Odoo track inventory by lot and serial number?
Yes. Odoo's Inventory app tracks individual units through lot numbers, serial numbers, and expiration dates, configured per product alongside units of measure and packaging — core to its strong inventory rating.
Can Odoo automate stock replenishment?
Yes. Odoo supports automated replenishment across multi-location stock, using reordering rules that trigger purchase or manufacturing orders when stock falls below a set threshold.
Does Odoo support barcode scanning for inventory?
Yes. Odoo's barcode-scanner workflows cover inventory adjustments, transfers, and lot/serial handling, supporting both default and GS1 barcode nomenclature for warehouses that need standardized scanning.
How does Odoo value inventory?
Odoo's inventory valuation is tied to its stock and warehouse configuration, updating automatically as goods move through receipts, transfers, and deliveries, so on-hand value stays current without a separate valuation run.
