FAQs
Can I combine pickings from different vendors in one container?

Does this module support both Community and Enterprise editions?
Yes, the Container Management module is compatible with both Odoo Community and Enterprise editions. The configuration and features work the same way in both editions.
How does container identification work?
When you assign a container ID to pickings, the system groups them together for unified management. This container ID follows the pickings through your workflow, allowing you to track and manage all associated operations as a cohesive unit.
Can I track container capacity?
Yes, the module provides detailed tracking of container weight and volume. You can monitor capacity utilization to ensure optimal loading and prevent overloading of containers.
How do I handle partial shipments from vendors?
The module supports manual receipt creation, allowing you to create pickings with the exact quantities that vendors will ship. This gives you full control over partial deliveries and ensures accurate tracking of what's actually being shipped in each container.
How does the module handle inventory forecasting with containers?
The module provides precise inventory forecasting by tracking scheduled inbound shipments. When you schedule an inbound shipment, it immediately appears in your inventory forecasts, giving you accurate visibility of incoming stock. You can easily adjust these schedules by canceling and recreating shipments as your container plans evolve, ensuring your forecasts always reflect your actual logistics situation.
How do I adjust container contents after creation?
The module maintains data integrity by managing changes at the picking level. To modify container contents, simply remove the relevant picking from the batch, make your adjustments, and add it back. This structured approach ensures accurate tracking while providing the flexibility to adapt to changing shipment requirements.
