Greetings everyone,
I would like to address a topic relating to the standard behaviour of
procurement in OpenERP
Make to order procurement assumes that every time it is required it will be
produced and stock in never checked.There are a vast amount of cases where
products are produced/bought on order but a few exceptions also leave some in
stock e.g:
- Byproducts (Need a 3m pole cut from 6m pole, 1 gets reserved the other goes
on stock)
- Customer canceled orders, returned products etc
There is a possibility of keeping the products as make_to_stock and define
minimum order points but that bundles the product request when the scheduler
runs and we loose the procurement per sale order
There is also some interest presented in the help platform of OpenERP:
http://help.openerp.com/question/23173/how-to-make-to-order-with-stock-management/?answer=35358#post-id-35358
I personally find that this scenario can happen quite often and believe that
there should be a standard configuration to allow handling such situations
Please let me know if this topic is worthy of a debate and useful enough for
several businesses using OpenERP
Kind regards,
Paul
