We sell soft drinks on wooden pallets. Our customers have a kind of "balance" for the number of pallets they need to return, and when they accumulate a significant amount, we contact the customer to remind them to return them. The returns are typically done in bulk, for example, once a month, but the product is delivered on pallets daily.

The registration of sent pallets can be done via the 'packaging', but how can bulk returns be managed in odoo?

Moreover, is it possible to see each pallet where it is?

Base functionality related to packages in Odoo is quite limited and would need customization to achieve your requirement.


1. Packages (Pallet) can be tracked by location, however not by specific customer



2. To make the package reusable at your company you would need to 'unpack'. Yet again 'unpack' can't be accomplished by selecting multiple packages from list view.



An alternate to managing this return process could be by having pallet as a product and defining return route


1. Create Inventory Operation - Inventory > Configuration > Operation Types. Type of operation - receipt Default source location - Partners/Customer and destination WH/Stock (or location where pallets are received)



2. Create route - Push from rule - Customer to Stock using newly created Return Operation, and make route applicable in product




3. Create Product - Pallet type consumable and inventory tab select return route



4. On your delivery order or picking operation add pallet as product. (this would be in-lieu of using 'put in pack'. Can also be added from Sale Order) on validating delivery a return operation would be created.


Also, only 1 return operation would be create per customer while aggregating the number of pallets. Validate the operation on collecting the pallets from customer



This might not meet your exact requirement and viability of this alternative is dependant on your operations and the specific way the pallets are tracked and managed.

Thank you Jaideep for this great explanation !
Let's say each customer would receive multiple deliveries (so many return operations would be created for each customer) but he would return the pallets in bulk at the end of the month/year/season.
Do you see a way to process all the returns in bulk (and to able to tell how many pallets the customer should return in total) ?

If your question is regarding the suggested alternative solution, then

1. For each customer only 1 return operation would be created

2. The quantity in the operation would be the cumulative of all pallets delivered until that point.

3. The operation can be validated with the received qty while the balance would be carried forward
