Hi there,


I thought about this one. What about building an OCA addon to reconcile stock.quants in a same location ?

I mean, it makes sense, like dedupplicating partners or bank reconciliation. Those are similar uses cases made manually, with some automation magic.

We can imagine a simple tools suggesting quants reconciliation that someone approves on a periodical basis. What do you think ?



My2cents,

Joël

Hello all,

I'm facing an issue on a customer's database. For various reasons
(including, but exclusively, errors in custom addons), some
availabilities of outgoing moves have been forced, resulting in negative
quants. I need to repair the situation for my customer.

My first attempt was to return the pickings, to have the quant
reconciliation code do the work, but in case the quant that originally
created the negative quant is being returned, the stock module
explicitly refuses to reconcile them (see
https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/9907). The official answer is that it
breaks the traceability of quants, and that stock inventories should be
used for this. I'm not fond of inventories there, because I don't think
that the resulting traceability is clearer (quite the contrary in fact),
but I'm concerned pushing 9907 could break other parts of Odoo (Joss
mentionned mrp).

Before moving further, I'd like to gather opinions from people here.
Here are the options I could think of, feel free to add your suggestions:

* stick to inventories to fix this
* create an addon module to allow returns to reconcile the broken quants
(possibly asking the user to explicitly say he wants to do so)
* merge #9907 in OCB
* ???

Thanks for your feedback.
