Ajustes de inventario

In any warehouse management system, the recorded inventory counts in the database might not always match the actual inventory counts in the warehouse. Discrepancy between counts can be due to damage, human error, theft, or other factors. As such, inventory adjustments must be made to reconcile the differences, and ensure that the recorded counts in the database match the actual counts in the warehouse.

Página de ajustes de inventario

To view the Inventory Adjustments page, navigate to Inventory app ‣ Operations ‣ Physical Inventory.

Los productos con existencias que aparecen en la página de ajustes de inventario.

The Inventory Adjustments page lists all products that are currently in stock.

Nota

Only products with a quantity greater than zero are listed on the Inventory Adjustments page. To view product lines with zero current quantity, go to Inventory app ‣ Reporting ‣ Stock.

For each product line, the following information is listed:

  • Location: the specific location in the warehouse where a product is stored. This column is only visible if Storage Locations are enabled.

  • Favorite: identifies products that have been favorited.

  • Producto: el producto cuya cantidad se enlista en la línea de ajuste de inventario.

  • Número de lote/serie: el identificador que se le asigna a un producto en específico. Puede contener letras, números o ambos.

Nota

If a specific product has a quantity of more than 1.00 in stock, and more than one serial number, or lot number, assigned to it, each uniquely-identified product is displayed on its own product line with its own lot/serial number, displayed under the Lot/Serial Number column.

  • Expiration Date: the date on which the goods with this serial number are due to expire.

  • Last Count Date: the last time the quantity was updated.

  • Package: the package containing the quantity listed.

  • Cantidad a la mano: la cantidad del producto que está registrada en la base de datos.

  • Unit: the unit of measure in which the product is measured. Unless otherwise specified (e.g., in Pounds or Ounces), the default UoM is Units.

  • Counted Quantity: the real quantity counted during an inventory count. This field is left blank by default but can be changed, depending on if it matches the On Hand Quantity or not.

  • Diferencia: la diferencia entre la Cantidad a la mano y las Cantidades contadas después de que se hicieron los ajustes de inventario. La diferencia se calcula de manera automática después de cada ajuste de inventario.

  • Fecha prevista: la fecha en la que se debe de realizar un conteo. Esta fecha siempre será el 31 de diciembre de manera automática a no ser que se especifique lo contrario.

  • Usuari: la persona a la que se le asignó el conteo en la base de datos. Puede ser tanto la persona que físicamente está contando el inventario, o solo la persona que aplica el número en la base de datos.

To the right of the Counted Quantity column, the Scheduled Date and User can also be changed via their respective drop-down menus.

If the quantities match, and have not been changed at all, no value appears in the Difference column.

Set to zero

Inventory adjustments can also be used to clear inventory counts by setting the quantity to zero. To do this, tick the checkbox at the far left of the line for the desired product. At the top of the page, click the Actions button to open a drop-down menu. Click Set to 0. Once this is complete, apply the adjusted count.

Conteo de productos

Counting products is a recurring activity in a warehouse. Once a count is complete, go to Inventory app ‣ Operations ‣ Physical Inventory to update the Counted Quantity column for each product line.

On each product line, identify whether the value in the On Hand Quantity column recorded in the database matches the newly-counted value. If the recorded value and the counted value do match, click the Set icon at the far right of the product line.

Esto hará que el valor que está en la columna Cantidad a la mano se copie en la columna Cantidades contadas, además de que hará que el valor de la columna Diferencia sea 0.00. Ya que se aplicaron estos cambios, se registrará un movimiento de inventario de 0.00 en la columna Cantidad hecha del historial de ajustes de inventario del producto.

If the newly-counted value for a given product does not match the value in the On Hand Quantity recorded in the database, instead of clicking the Set icon, record the real value in the field in the Counted Quantity column.

Para hacerlo, haga clic en el campo de la columna Cantidades contadas en la línea de ajuste de inventario del producto del que tiene que cambiar el valor. De esta manera se asignará una Cantidad contada de 0.00.

Escriba el nuevo valor que coincide con el valor que acaba de contar. Después, haga clic fuera de la línea para guardar el ajuste y que el valor en la columna Diferencia cambie de forma automática.

If the Counted Quantity is greater than the On Hand Quantity, the value in the Difference column is green. If the Counted Quantity is less than the On Hand Quantity, the value in the Difference column is red. If the quantities match, and have not been changed at all, no value appears in the Difference column.

Después, se registrará un movimiento con la diferencia entre la cantidad a la mano y las cantidades a la mano en el historial de ajustes de inventario del producto.

Alguna veces hacemos un conteo de inventario que no podemos registrar en la base de datos de inmediato. En lo que podemos registrar la nueva cuenta en la base de datos, es posible que ocurran movimientos de inventario. Esto hará que la cantidad a la mano en la base de datos cambie y ya no sea consistente con la cantidad contada. Es por eso que Odoo pregunta antes de aplicar un ajuste de inventario como precaución.

Revert an inventory adjustment

To revert the changes made in an inventory adjustment, navigate to Inventory ‣ Reporting ‣ Moves History.
