This addons define an automatic release mode on the release channels. By default release channels manage the release of the transfers in batch mode. This means that the transfers are released only when the user manually triggers the release process by clicking on the release button.

When the automatic release mode is enabled, the transfers are released automatically when a new transfer is added to the channel or as soon a product becomes available.

As for the batch mode, the automatic release process is only active on open channels. When is locked, the automatic release process is stopped. Once the channel is unlocked, the automatic release process is restarted and transfers into the channel are released if they are ready to be released (IOW if quantities are available for moves not yet released).

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Adds an Automatic release mode to stock release channels so transfers are released on their own when they enter the channel or become ready, instead of waiting for a manual release click.

Release channels normally release transfers in batches only when someone clicks the release button. This module adds a new "Automatic" option to the release mode of a release channel.

  • When a channel is set to Automatic and is open, transfers added to it are released automatically, and so are transfers that become ready because stock is available.
  • The automatic behaviour only applies while the channel is open; locking the channel stops it, and unlocking it restarts the automatic release for transfers that are ready.
  • On the release channel kanban card, a spinning gear icon appears when the channel is in Automatic mode and automatic release is currently allowed.

Behind the scenes, the module checks that the channel is in Automatic mode and that release is allowed before releasing anything. It also hooks into the moment a transfer is assigned to a release channel, so newly assigned transfers can be released right away. It touches the stock.release.channel and stock.picking models and extends the release channel kanban view.
