auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0Lets you choose, per operation type, what happens to backorders when a transfer is only partially done: ask as usual, always create, never create, or cancel the backorder.
This module adds a new setting on operation types (for example Receipts, Delivery Orders, Internal Transfers) called backorder strategy. You find it on the operation type form, right after the return operation type field.
Four choices are available: - Manual: the usual Odoo behaviour, the backorder wizard is shown and you decide. - Create: a backorder is created automatically when quantities remain. - No create: no backorder is created; the remaining quantities of the transfer are cancelled instead. - Cancel: the backorder is created but then immediately cancelled.
The default value is Manual, so existing operation types keep behaving as before until you change them. The setting is required, meaning every operation type must have one of the four values.
The module changes how transfers (stock.picking) decide whether to ask for a backorder and how they create or cancel it, and it also touches stock moves (stock.move) to cancel quantities that are still pending. No new menus or reports are added; everything is configured from the existing operation type screens in Inventory.
