Location Validate Inventory
This module adds a technical user group "Location Validate Inventory" to allow the validation of the inventory of a location.
In standard, only users in the "Inventory Manager" group can perform this and only if there is a quant on the location as you need to apply a counted quantity.
This module provides an action on a location to validate that the current inventory is right. This will reset any counted differences and update the location last inventory date.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0Adds a "Validate Inventory" action on stock locations so authorised users can confirm that the current stock of a location is correct, clearing counted differences and updating the last inventory date.
This module adds a new user right called "Inventory: Location inventory validation" and a "Validate Inventory" action available on stock locations.
When a user runs the action on a location, the module checks that the user belongs to the new validation group. If not, an error message is shown and nothing happens. If the user is allowed but is not an Inventory Manager, the action is executed with elevated rights so the validation can still be completed.
- If the location has stock quants, their counted inventory quantities are reset to zero and the inventory adjustment is applied, so any counted differences are cleared.
- If the location has no quants, only the location's last inventory date is set to today.
The action appears as a server action bound to the stock.location model, so it can be run from location records in the Inventory app. The new group is automatically implied for users in the standard Inventory Manager group, meaning inventory managers get this ability without extra configuration.
The module only touches the stock.location model and its related quants; it does not add menus, reports or scheduled jobs.
