This modules adds the possibility to have move automatically processed as soon as the products are available in the move source location.
It also adds the possibility to define the move as being automatic in a procurement rule.
Automatic moves are triggered by previous move when the move is chained or by the scheduler otherwise.
Note that automatic moves are given a procurement group name "Automatic", whatever the user or the procurement rule selects.
It's different than the standard 'Automatic No step added' option in stock rules as it does not merge first and second chained move.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0Adds an "Automatic move" option on stock moves and warehouse rules so that transfers are validated automatically as soon as the products are available, without an operator having to do it.
This module lets you mark a stock move or a warehouse rule as automatic. When the option is ticked, the transfer is processed by Odoo on its own as soon as the products are available in the source location, so nobody has to click the validate button.
Where you see it: - On the stock move form, a new "Automatic move" checkbox appears next to the date. - On the warehouse rule form, the same checkbox appears next to the procurement method.
What happens automatically: - When a move is reserved and its products are available, the module marks the quantities as picked, validates the move and creates a backorder if needed. - Moves flagged as automatic that have no procurement group are placed in a group named "Automatic". - When a rule is flagged as automatic, the moves it generates (including chained/push moves) inherit the automatic setting.
It touches the stock move and warehouse rule models. It is meant for chained routes where you want the intermediate steps to run without human action, and it does not merge the first and second chained moves the way the standard "Automatic No step added" option does.
