Stock Picking Batch Planner
This module extends the functionality of batch operations in Odoo to support the direct creation of batches or waves from batches and to allow you to plan Batches and Waves with a single click based on the grouping rules defined in the operation type. It also provides smart buttons to easily access the Waves and Batches linked to the original Batch, improving traceability and efficiency in warehouse operations.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Plan batches or waves directly from a destination batch: a "Plan Batches" button creates the origin batches/waves using the operation type's grouping rules, and a smart button shows the origin batches linked to the current one.
This module adds a planning step to batch transfers. On a batch that is in progress, a "Plan Batches" button appears when the origin operations of its transfers are configured to be planned. Clicking it creates the batches or waves for those origin operations, using the same grouping criteria (the "Group by" options) already defined on the operation type.
On the operation type form, a new "Planned Batches" option is available. When it is enabled, at least one "Group by" option must be selected, otherwise Odoo shows a validation error. If the operation type already uses automatic batches, the new option is set automatically and becomes read-only.
On the batch form, a smart button labelled "Origin Batches" shows how many origin batches are linked to the current batch and opens the list, kanban or form view of those batches. A "Plan Batches" action is also available from the batch list for inventory managers, so several batches can be planned at once.
The module touches stock.picking.batch and stock.picking.type, and relies on the existing auto-batch and auto-wave grouping settings of the operation type.
