Inventory

Physical goods: where they are, how they move, what's available.

Key models

• stock.warehouse — physical warehouse
• stock.location — location inside/outside warehouse (internal, supplier, customer, inventory)
• stock.quant — on-hand quantity per product+location+lot (the "truth")
• stock.move — intended movement of product from A → B
• stock.picking — grouped moves (receipt, delivery, internal transfer)
• stock.lot — lot/serial number
• stock.warehouse.orderpoint — min/max reorder rule

Typical workflows

1. Receipt — stock.picking type incoming, confirm → assign → validate → updates stock.quant
2. Delivery — stock.picking type outgoing, auto-created from SO
3. Internal transfer — between two internal locations
4. Inventory adjustment — compare counted qty to stock.quant.quantity, post difference
5. Lot tracking — enable tracking = lot/serial on product, assign lot on receipt

Gotchas

• stock.quant is the source of truth; stock.move is the plan. Reconcile via moves with state = done.
• Location types matter: internal counts toward on-hand, supplier/customer/inventory don't.
• A picking in assigned state has reserved stock; done has actually moved it.
• Negative quants happen when deliveries outrun receipts — allowed unless you block it.
