Guewen, thanks for your answer.

We are currently thinking of an international Magento & Odoo setup with Multiple Warehouses and therefore I would like to reopen that Post again.
What we are planning is:

Internationalize Magento with different websites for each country/region under one backend and change the Odoo Connector in the following way:

Sales Order Sync Magento->Odoo:
 - change the warehouse association from a backend level to a website level and make it possible to associate multiple warehouses to 1 website
 - if you have multiple warehouses per website (eg. USA) decide which warehouse you wanna take based on the shipping address of the sales order and the availability of the product
 - associate the selected warehouse with the sales order on the import in the connector

Inventory Sync Odoo->Magento:
 - sync the inventory levels per website and the warehouses associated to this website (sum up inventory levels per associated warehouses)

Delivery Time Sync Odoo->Magento:
 - we are currently also thinking of expanding the Delivery Method functionality in Odoo and derive the Delivery Time in Magento from Odoo, but we need to think that through in more detail, any suggestions are although welcome!

My questions to you guys are:
 - what of that can actually be accomplished by configuration (e.g sophisticated routes,…) and what do we need to develop?
 - is the only real change that would allow a multi-warehouse setup be the association on the imported sales order?
 - would you suggest to change/extend the connector or create a new module, especially for the warehouse selection?

Interesting.  My question was the opposite..  Ie how yo have 1 location for stock but have it be listed in 2 websites - while resolving to 1 Odoo warehouse location.    Multi-warehouse would have many rationales however too.

Hi,

Magento itself does not support several warehouses so how would you
handle that? Do you plan to use a multi-warehouse addon on Magento?

Anyway, I think you could change the warehouse or even the
route/procurement rule on the generated order according to some rules
(which at some point could surely be more generic than an
implementation only for Magento, like we did for
sale_automatic_workflow).

Regarding the warehouse defined of the sales order, it will be set on
the procument, which could have an impact on which route is available.
Also, the move generated by this procurement will be assigned to this
warehouse.
