Key Features

• Location Capacity Management:
  • Define a maximum number of products for each leaf storage location.
  • Computed capacity is automatically aggregated up the location hierarchy.
  • Track current on-hand quantity and planned incoming quantity per location.
  • Visualize occupancy ratio for each location.
• Smarter Putaway:
  • Respects capacity limits when suggesting destination locations.
  • Prefers locations where the same product is already stored (configurable).
  • Automatically splits move lines when a destination location reaches its maximum capacity.
  • Protected against infinite loops during split operations.
• Operation Type Controls:
  • Per operation type: optionally disable putaway rules.
  • Per operation type: optionally exclude the root source location from stock reservation.

Usage

1. Set Max products (leaf) on leaf locations that should have a maximum capacity.
2. Use standard operations (receipts, internal transfers). The putaway helper will:
   • reject over-capacity destinations,
   • split move lines automatically when needed,
   • and try to choose a location with existing stock first when appropriate.
3. The computed capacity fields can be displayed in location views or used by other modules (e.g., visual warehouse map).

Configuration

• To enable sub-location search (prefer locations with existing stock), go to Settings > Technical > System Parameters and set deltatech_putaway_strategy.search_sublocation to True.
• To disable putaway rules for a specific operation type, open Inventory > Configuration > Operations Types and enable Avoid Putaway Rules.
• To exclude the root source location from reservation, enable Avoid Root Location on Reservation on the operation type.

Compatibility

• Odoo 18.0.
• Compatible with Odoo’s standard storage category rules (max weight, product/pack capacities, allow new product rules, etc.).
• Designed to work alongside modules that display warehouse maps or dashboards (e.g., deltatech_warehouse_map).
