Magazzini

In the Odoo Inventory app, a warehouse is a physical space with an address for storing items, such as a storage facility, distribution center, or physical store.

Each database has a pre-configured warehouse with the company’s address. Users can set up multiple warehouses, and create stock moves between them.

Configurazione

To create or manage warehouses, go to Inventory app ‣ Configuration ‣ Warehouses.

Then, select an existing warehouse, or create a new one by clicking New. Doing so opens the warehouse form, which contains the following fields:

  • Warehouse (required field): the full name of the warehouse.

  • Short Name (required field): the abbreviated code for the warehouse (maximum five characters). The short name for the default warehouse in Odoo is WH.

    The Short Name appears on warehouse documents, so it is recommended to use an memorable one, like «WH[first letters of location]» (e.g. WHA, WHB, etc.).

  • Address (required field): the address of the warehouse. To change the warehouse address when creating two or more warehouses, hover over the field, and click the (right arrow).

  • Company (required field): the company that owns the warehouse; this can be set as the company that owns the Odoo database, or the company of a customer or vendor.

  • Intrastat region: region name required for companies in the European Union.
