Deltatech Putaway Strategy

Deltatech Putaway Strategy
This module extends Odoo Inventory locations with simple capacity tracking and enhances the putaway decision logic.
Key features
- Adds capacity fields on stock.location:
- Max products (leaf): manual capacity for leaf locations.
- Max products: computed capacity for any location (sum of children for non‑leaf locations).
- Current quantity: computed on‑hand quantity per location.
- Occupancy: computed ratio current/max (clamped to [0, 1]).
- Optimized computation for large hierarchies:
- Single batched read_group on stock.quant for all leaf locations in the batch.
- Bottom‑up in‑memory aggregation for parent locations.
- Smarter putaway:
- Respects capacity on leaf locations when suggesting destinations.
- Prefers empty child locations when possible.
- Keeps full compatibility with Odoo’s storage category rules (max weight, product/pack capacities, allow new product rules, etc.).
Usage
- Set Max products (leaf) on leaf locations that should have a maximum capacity.
- Use standard operations (receipts, internal transfers). The putaway
helper will:
- reject over‑capacity destinations,
- and try to choose an empty child location first when appropriate.
- The computed fields can be shown in location tree or used by other modules (e.g., visual warehouse map).
Performance notes
- The occupancy compute reduces SQL calls from O(N) per leaf to O(1) per batch using a single read_group, mirroring the efficient pattern from Odoo’s _compute_weight.
Compatibility
- Odoo 17.0.
- Designed to work alongside modules that display warehouse maps or dashboards. The module deltatech_warehouse_map can depend on this one to display the capacity and occupancy KPIs.
Tests
- Includes minimal TransactionCase tests that validate:
- capacity enforcement via _check_can_be_used,
- putaway preference for empty child locations via _get_putaway_strategy.
