Key Features
Screenshots Section
Multi-Level Alert Configuration
Enables low stock alerts to be configured at three levels: Product, Category, and Global. The system uses a priority-based method to determine which alert threshold to apply. This gives flexibility for managing different types of inventory.

Stock Alert in List & Kanban View
The "Stock Alert in List & Kanban View" feature provides a visual indicator in the product list and kanban views of the Inventory module. It highlights products that are below their configured low stock threshold, helping users to quickly identify items that require restocking.
List View

Kanban View

"When I select the 'Individual Product' method, the 'Minimum Alert Quantity' field should appear inside the Product → Product Variant form."
When the 'Individual Product' alert method is selected in the settings, a 'Minimum Alert Quantity' field becomes visible in each Product Variant form. This allows users to configure low stock thresholds at the individual product level. The system then uses this value to trigger low stock alerts for each specific product variant.

"When I select the 'Product Categor' method, the 'Minimum Alert Quantity' field should appear inside the Configuration → Product Categories ."
When the 'Category' alert method is selected in the settings, a 'Minimum Alert Quantity' field becomes visible in each Product Category form. This allows users to configure low stock thresholds at the Category level. The system then uses this value to trigger low stock alerts for each specific product category.

Alert Tag in POS (Point of Sale)
Displays a visible “Low Stock” tag on product cards in the POS interface. This helps POS users avoid selling items with critically low stock, ensuring better inventory control and customer satisfaction.

Table of contents
Key Features
- Global Configuration: Define a default low stock threshold across the entire system. If per-product or per-category thresholds are not defined, the global setting will be used.

- Per-Category Alert Configuration: Set low stock alert quantities per product category, applying to all products in that category unless overridden.
- Low Stock Alerts in Inventory: List and Kanban views of the Inventory show red visual indicators for products below the alert threshold using <decoration> XML and CSS styling.
- POS Low Stock Alerts: Products that are below the alert level in the Point of Sale (POS) module show a “Low Stock” badge using OWL and JavaScript logic.
- Dynamic Settings Interface: Admins can select the preferred alert method (Global / Per-Product / Per-Category) using radio buttons. Related fields dynamically appear or hide using the new <visibility> tag (Odoo 17+).
- Multi-language Translation: All translatable strings are available in English, French, Spanish, Japanese, and German.
- Version Compatibility: Developed for Odoo 17 Community Edition. Fully tested with Odoo 18 and includes downgrade scripts for Odoo 16 (on demand).
