Having some issues saving this PO. 

We are using Odoo to do some very basic purchasing and receiving.  I have about 50 items saved that could be purchased/received and only 2 locations. I built and received 13 PO's for the first location and those went great.

I tried to then build the first PO for the 2nd location, which does happen to have 1 line, which is already been purchased and received at the other location ( but why would that matter anyhow?) But when i build the new PO, with this 1 line i get this error.  When i change the location back to the 1st one it does save fine... I do not get what is different from my 2nd location. Based on all that i can see i added this second location the same as i did the first. Any thoughts on this?   

Thanks  - Aaron

I can reproduce you issue and got the same error as below.

Error

This error raised from constraints in the stock_picking.py 

_sql_constraints = [
('name_uniq', 'unique(name, company_id)', 'Reference must be unique per company!'),
]

You have two operation type and each one has its sequence, that's mean you linked each operation type to different sequence and the sequence prefix is the same WH/IN/ and your locations create same sequence which already used so you got the error.

Operations

Sequences

Solution 1:

To solve the issue Go to Inventory -> Configurations -> Operation Types and change the sequence of the operation used for location2 to the same of the location 1.


Solution 2:

If you want to use different sequence for the operation of location2, enable developer mode go to settings ->Technical -> Sequences and search for sequence used in the operation of location2 and change prefix to something else  WH/IN/ lets say WH/IN/LOC2/ and Save and it will work with you.

I have tested this in my environment.

Please let me know if you have any doubts.

Thanks for your very detailed reply.  I also received a reply direct from Odoo support and this is what they told me, which i tried before doing what you said and i am now able to load Purchase Orders for Location #2.


Will you please confirm the behavior now as I have increment number to next sequence. The system tries to create Incoming shipment with number 025/IN/00017 but since it's already existed in the system it's not possible to use the same sequence number. The shipment should be generated with sequence number 025/IN/00018

I look forward to the result at your end. Thank you and have a great day!

Yes, if the shipment number already exits, you will not be able to use it so increment it and it will work.
