Per-Line Schedule Date for Sale Orders

Assign different delivery schedule dates to individual product lines within the same sales order. Upon confirmation, stock transfers are automatically split by schedule date - perfect for partial shipments, phased deliveries, and multi-site projects.



Problem: Single Delivery Date Per Order

Standard Odoo allows only one scheduled date for the entire sales order - all products are expected to ship on the same day.

This creates significant operational challenges:

  • Products with different lead times must ship separately but same order
  • Back-ordered items and in-stock items need different delivery dates
  • Construction/materials orders - each item needed at different project phases
  • Customer requests phased deliveries - impossible with single date
  • Warehouse staff cannot see line-level delivery priorities
  • Manual order splitting required -> time-consuming and error-prone


Solution: Per-Line Schedule Dates with Automatic Picking Split

This module adds a "Schedule Date" column on sale order lines. Each product line can have its own delivery date. When the order is confirmed, the system automatically splits stock transfers - one picking per unique schedule date. Perfect for partial shipments, phased deliveries, and managing items with different lead times in a single order.



Key Features
  • Per-Line Schedule Date: Each sale order line has its own delivery schedule date
  • Automatic Picking Split: On confirmation, stock transfers automatically split by unique schedule date
  • Smart Date Propagation: Per-line dates override order-level commitment_date in stock moves
  • Backorder Support: Existing backorder logic works seamlessly with split pickings
  • Onchange Propagation: Order-level date automatically populates empty line dates
  • UI Hint: Informational tooltip visible in draft orders to guide users
  • Warehouse Visibility: Different pickings show different scheduled dates for easy prioritization
  • Procurement Integration: Per-line date flows through to procurement group and stock moves
  • Audit Trail: Changes to schedule dates are tracked via Odoo's tracking system
How It Works

Guide: Using Per-Line Schedule Dates

Step 1: Create Sale Order with Multiple Lines

Navigate to Sales -> Orders -> Quotations. Create a new sales order. Add multiple product lines to the order.

Step 2: Assign Schedule Dates Per Line

In the "Order Lines" tab, you will see a new "Schedule Date" column. For each product line, set the desired delivery date:

  • Line 1: Deliver on June 15, 2025
  • Line 2: Deliver on June 15, 2025 (same date - will go to same picking)
  • Line 3: Deliver on June 22, 2025 (different date - separate picking)
  • Leave empty -> uses order-level commitment_date if set

Note: The Schedule Date column is hidden when the order is confirmed or cancelled.

Step 3: Confirm the Sale Order

Click "Confirm" on the sales order. The system automatically:

  • Detects all unique schedule dates across order lines
  • Creates one Delivery Order (Picking) per unique date
  • Assigns the correct lines to each picking
  • Sets date and date_deadline on each stock move
  • The picking's scheduled date auto-computes from move dates

Step 4: Process Pickings in Warehouse

Go to Inventory -> Operations -> Transfers. You will see separate pickings:

  • WH/OUT/0001 - Scheduled Date: June 15, 2025 (Lines 1 & 2)
  • WH/OUT/0002 - Scheduled Date: June 22, 2025 (Line 3)

Warehouse staff can process each picking independently based on its scheduled date.

Step 5: Using Order-Level Commitment Date

You can still set an order-level Commitment Date (in the Sales tab). If a line has no per-line schedule date, it will use the order's commitment date. When you change the order's commitment date, empty line dates are automatically updated via onchange.

Pro Tip - Partial Shipments Strategy

Use per-line schedule dates to implement a partial shipment strategy: - Ship in-stock items immediately (set date = tomorrow) - Hold back-ordered items for later (set date = +2 weeks) - Schedule pre-ordered items for their release date All from a single sales order - no manual splitting required. Warehouse staff see prioritized pickings ordered by date.

Use Cases

Partial Shipments

Ship in-stock items immediately, backorders later - all in one order with different schedule dates.

Construction Materials

Foundation materials needed week 1, framing week 2, finishing week 3 - each with separate delivery.

Event Planning

Catering delivered day before, decorations day of event, cleanup supplies after - single order.

Subscription Boxes

Monthly subscription items scheduled for different delivery dates in a single purchase order.

Phased Project Deliverables

Software licenses now, hardware in 2 weeks, installation services in 4 weeks - one order, multiple deliveries.

Retail Pre-Orders

Pre-order product with release date months away, plus in-stock items ship immediately - same order line dates separate automatically.

Business Benefits

Reduce Manual Order Splitting

No need to create multiple orders for different delivery dates - one order, automatic split pickings.

Better Warehouse Planning

Pickings sorted by date help warehouse staff prioritize urgent deliveries over future ones.

Improved Customer Satisfaction

Customers receive deliveries exactly when needed - phased deliveries without multiple orders.

Accurate Backorder Management

Schedule out-of-stock items for future dates - separate pickings for now vs later.
