Consignment & VMI for Odoo — preview banner

Consignment & VMI

Track supplier-owned and customer-held consignment stock with settlement on consumption

Consignment and vendor-managed inventory usually live in spreadsheets, where consumption goes unrecorded and supplier bills never match what was actually used. That gap ties up cash, triggers disputes and leaves stock you do not own untracked on your balance sheet. Distributors, manufacturers and suppliers running consignment or VMI arrangements feel this pain every settlement cycle. This module puts agreements, movement-level consumption, automatic settlement runs and on-hand valuation into Odoo, so ownership and money always reconcile.

Key Features

Inbound & Outbound Agreements

The consignment.agreement model handles both supplier consignment you hold and customer VMI you place at their site, selected via the agreement_type field. Each agreement carries partner, consignment location, start/end dates and terms, and moves through draft, active, on-hold and closed states.

Four-Quantity Stock Lines

Every consignment.line computes received, consumed, returned, on-hand and unsettled quantities from its underlying movements. Balances update automatically as you post receipts and consumption, so you always see true on-hand stock without manual tallying.

Movement-Based Consumption Recording

The consume wizard posts receive, consume or return movements against a line, blocking any consume or return that exceeds on-hand quantity. Each consignment.movement stamps quantity, unit price and amount, giving a complete, tamper-resistant consumption ledger.

Settlement Documents

Unsettled consumption is batched into a consignment.settlement that groups movements per product into summary lines with quantity, unit price and subtotal. Settlements run draft, confirmed and billed, with action_mark_billed posting the total to the chatter for audit.

Automatic Settlement Cron

A daily ir.cron runs cron_auto_settle, generating settlements for active agreements whose weekly or monthly settlement_day falls due and that have auto_invoice enabled. This means recurring consignment billing happens on schedule without anyone remembering to run it.

Min/Max Replenishment Signals

Each line compares on-hand quantity against its min_qty and max_qty to set needs_replenishment and a suggested replenish_qty. Vendor-managed locations surface a clear top-up signal before stock runs out, keeping VMI shelves filled.

On-Hand & Unsettled Valuation

The agreement rolls up stored onhand_value and unsettled_value monetary fields from line quantities and unit prices. Finance can see at a glance how much consigned stock is sitting on site and how much consumption is still awaiting settlement.

Close-Time Settlement Guard

action_close refuses to close any agreement that still has unsettled consumption, forcing settlement first. Combined with mail.thread tracking on state and the per-movement audit trail, ownership and money always reconcile before an agreement is archived.

Use Cases

✓A distributor holds supplier-owned spare parts on consignment and only pays for what is consumed each month.
✓A manufacturer places packaging stock at a customer site under VMI and invoices on actual usage.
✓An inventory manager records weekly consumption through the wizard and lets the cron settle automatically.
✓A finance controller reviews unsettled value before month-end and confirms the settlement run.
✓A warehouse lead watches min/max replenishment flags to top up vendor-managed shelves before stockouts.

Why Choose This Module

Manage stock you do not own yet (supplier consignment held at your site) and stock you own but hold at a customer's site (VMI / customer consignment). Consumption is recorded against agreements and settled into vendor bills or customer invoices, so ownership and money always reconcile — and consignment stops living off-system in spreadsheets.
