There was a mistake made and we had a duplicate part number for a single product so we archived one of them.  We did not realize the archived part was on a PO and it was received.  The archived number shows none on hand and I can't figure out where the received products went in the system or if they are just gone and I should adjust in the correct part number.  Odoo V16  Does anyone have any experience with this?

Hi Tony If you received an obsolete product due to the mistake made with the duplicate part number, you may need to take the following steps to resolve the issue in Odoo V16:

Check your inventory management system for the received products using the correct part number that matches the product you received. You can check the inventory levels for that product to see if the received products were added to the inventory or not.

If the received products were not added to the inventory, you may need to make an inventory adjustment to add them to the inventory using the correct part number. This can be done by creating an inventory adjustment in Odoo V16 and adjusting the quantity of the correct part number to reflect the received products.

If the received products were added to the inventory using the obsolete part number, you may need to make an inventory adjustment to transfer them to the correct part number. This can also be done by creating an inventory adjustment in Odoo V16 and transferring the quantity from the obsolete part number to the correct part number.

Once the inventory adjustment has been made, you can update your purchase order to reflect the correct part number and mark the received products as received using the correct part number.

It's important to review your inventory management processes to prevent similar issues in the future. This may include reviewing your part numbering system, ensuring that all products are properly labeled and identified, and implementing regular inventory audits to catch any discrepancies early on.

Thanks Waymark. This is an inprocess implementation. I just did an audit and it seems this is the only one that got through. (We only have 6 PO's) I have them in inventory under the wrong part number now. I can only see location transfers. I do not see how to change from one part number to another. M2M and SAP calls it reclassification. I can do inventory adjustments to make it right but there is no tracking. We are not using the billing feature so making the PO right doesn't really matter I think.

If you have mistakenly put the wrong part number in your inventory for a few items, you can perform a reclassification of inventory to correct it. Reclassification in Odoo is done through Inventory Adjustments.

Here are the steps to perform a reclassification in Odoo:

Go to Inventory > Inventory Adjustments.
Click on "Create" to create a new inventory adjustment.
In the inventory adjustment form, select the product you want to reclassify.
In the "Product" field, select the correct part number of the product that you want to reclassify the inventory to.
Enter the quantity that you want to reclassify from the incorrect part number to the correct part number.
Save the inventory adjustment.

By performing a reclassification of inventory through an inventory adjustment, you can track the change in inventory from the incorrect part number to the correct part number in Odoo.

Thanks for the response. I think this behavior has changed in V16. When I click on inventory adjustment I get the list of inventory and when I click new it just adds a line. This is what the current documentation says it will do but I have seen videos of older version giving you the screen you mention.

Thanks. I have unarchived it and they show in stock. Now to figure out how to do what I would call a reclassification (changing it from one part number to another) or just scrap the received ones and adjust in the right ones)
