Create a second warehouse¶
In Odoo Inventory, a warehouse is a physical building or space where items are stored. By default, each Odoo database has one warehouse already pre-configured, with the address set as the company’s address.
However, it is possible to set up multiple additional warehouses, and transfer stored items between them.
Configuração¶
To create a second warehouse, the Storage Locations feature must be enabled. To enable this feature, navigate to . Under the Warehouse section, tick the checkbox next to Storage Locations, and Save changes.
Nota
Creating a second warehouse without first enabling the Storage Locations feature triggers a Warning pop-up window. It indicates creating a second warehouse automatically activates the Storage Locations setting.
Create new warehouse¶
To create a new warehouse, navigate to , and click New. Doing so opens a blank warehouse creation form.
Fill out the following fields as necessary:
Warehouse: the full name of the warehouse.
Short Name: the abbreviated code used to identify the warehouse, i.e.
WH2(the short name for the default warehouse in Odoo isWH).Company: 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.
Address: the address where the warehouse is located. By default, this is set to the company’s address in the database.
Under the Warehouse Configuration tab, configure the warehouse’s main workflow in the Shipments section, and set available replenishment methods in the Resupply section.
Importante
The Shipments and Resupply sections only appear if the Multi-Step Routes checkbox is enabled in , under the Warehouse heading. For more information about routes and how they work in Odoo, see Using Routes and Pull/Push Rules.
In the Shipments section, choose between one, two, or three-step processes for both incoming and outgoing shipments.
In the Resupply section, edit the following settings:
Dropship Subcontractors: enable this feature to coordinate with vendors, and have components dropshipped directly to subcontractors for manufacturing.
Resupply Subcontractors: allow subcontractors to be resupplied with goods from this warehouse.
Manufacture to Resupply: when products are manufactured, they can be delivered to this warehouse.
Manufacture: the route that should be followed when manufacturing goods inside the warehouse. Choose from one, two, and three-step production.
Buy to Resupply: when products are purchased, they can be delivered to this warehouse.
Resupply From: Check the box next to the other warehouses from which this warehouse can replenish products. If the current warehouse does not have the stock, it can also pull products from these selected warehouses in the database. Automatic resupply routes will be created accordingly.
Once ready, click Save to save the new warehouse’s settings.
Add inventory to a new warehouse¶
If a new warehouse is created to represent a real-world storage location with existing stock, update the warehouse’s stock using an inventory adjustment.

To perform an inventory adjustment, navigate to , and click New. Doing so adds a new line at the bottom of the list of inventory adjustments.
Configure the line by filling out the following fields as necessary:
Location: the location where the product is currently stored in the new warehouse. This can be set as the overall warehouse, or a location within the warehouse.
Product: the product being added to inventory.
Lot/Serial Number: the lot that the product belongs to or the serial number used to identify it, if the product is tracked.
On Hand Quantity: the total quantity of the product stored in the location for which inventory is being adjusted. For a new warehouse or location where a count or a prior inventory adjustment has not taken place, this should be set to
0.00.UoM: the unit of measure (UoM) used for counting the product.
Counted Quantity: the amount of the product being added to inventory.
Difference: the difference between the on-hand and counted quantities. This automatically updates to reflect the value entered in the Counted Quantity column.
Scheduled Date: the date selected for the next inventory count for this product.
User: the user who recorded the inventory adjustment in the database.
Once each line for the products being added to the new warehouse is configured, click Apply on each line to apply the new inventory counts.
The values in the On Hand Quantity column update to reflect those in the Counted Quantity column, and the products added appear in the new warehouse’s stock.
Nota
If products tracked using a lot number or serial number are added without specifying the tracking number, a Tracked Products in Inventory Adjustment pop-up window appears upon clicking Apply on that product’s line.
The pop-up indicates tracked products were added, but the lots/serial numbers were not defined. To apply the adjustment without the numbers, click Apply. To add the numbers before applying, click Discard, and add the numbers. Then, once ready, click Apply again.
