We have the following situation at the moment, we have an online shop that syncs with odoo where we sell jewelry. Now we want to also add a different product vertical for which we'll have a new supplier. Both products will be sold via one shop. If a customer orders only a new product, our new production partner will ship the product directly (easy setup with a new warehouse), but if a customer orders a jewelry piece and a new product, we want to use our big fulfillment center where we ship jewelry to ship out both products together. But this means that we need to issue a transfer order for the new product to the jewelry fulfillment center. How do I set this up in odoo that this will happen automatically? Thx

Hi Michael,
The routing rules are defined at the product level, while you expecting the system to automatically choose a routing for a product based on the presence (or absence) of another product (or category of product) on the same SO.
While this can be set on an SO line while manually creating a SO, but in your case the Orders are automatically created from the website app. You probably require this validation and route assigned prior to order confirmation.
Not-withstanding, on the inventory and routings there are a couple of ways to achieve delivery
1. Create virtual warehouse - This would ensure all delivery orders are defaulted to the virtual warehouse. https://www.odoo.com/documentation/14.0/applications/inventory_and_mrp/inventory/routes/concepts/stock_warehouses.html
1.1 A delivery order could be assigned to either warehouse manually or even to both by duplicating or creating a back-order. (1 step delivery)
Or
1.2 Have a 2 step delivery so items are picked from individual warehouses and always shipped to customer from main warehouse (2 step delivery)
2. Deliver directly from warehouse to customer: Define 2 delivery operations apply on product category, this would create 2 distinct operations and each warehouse can ship their products directly to customer.
These aren't solution by themselves, but some concepts which could be relevant and applied while designing your solution.
Best regards
