Guys,

nobody ever thought about that?
Actually there is a part of that in the official Odoo documentation, but either this is just an example or I configured it wrong:
"OpenERP will then deliver the goods from the warehouse that has the ordered product in stock. When products are available in several warehouses, OpenERP will select the nearest warehouse. To formalize the notion of distance between warehouses you should use the geographic co-ordinates (X, Y, Z) of the different stores to enable OpenERP to search for the nearest goods. The same co-ordinates could also be used to structure the shelves, aisles and interior rooms in a warehouse.”

As we need this feature very urgently we’d like to build this on our own, but we are pretty new to the whole inventory logic and locations tree. Could you give me some hints on how to achieve that? I guess we would need to change the procurement process or work with routes right? Any suggestions help us!

Thanks,
Michael

Hi,

we have a Magento Shop that we synchronize with Odoo. Until now we served everything from one warehouse, but we want to open a US warehouse soon. Now I have the problem that I want Odoo to decide from which warehouse, based on the Shipping Adress of the Customer it should consume the Stock. How are you guys dealing with that kind of a problem?

In addition to that we use the MTO/MTS module to let Odoo decide if a product is on stock or if it should create a Purchase Order, so we would also need this module to decide then for which warehouse it should create the PO.

I’m curious about your ideas.

Thanks,
Michael
