Hello,

I am using Odoo 18 Enterprise with Inter-Company Transactions enabled. The standard sales → purchase synchronization is working correctly between Company A and Company B.

However, I noticed that returns are not synchronized.

Example:

  • Company A creates a return for a customer (credit note / return picking).

  • This return does not generate any corresponding return (refund / return picking) in Company B.

My questions:

  1. Why are returns not synchronized in Inter-Company Transactions?

  2. Is there any built-in way in Odoo 18 Enterprise to automatically synchronize returns between companies?

  3. If not, what is the recommended approach — custom module, automation, or any specific configuration?

Any guidance or clarification will be very helpful.

Thank you!

Hi,


Odoo's standard Inter-Company Transactions (ICT) doesn't automatically synchronize returns due to financial, approval, and inventory complexities. To achieve this, you can either develop a custom module to automate return creation, use Odoo's automation rules for manual synchronization with notifications, or explore third-party apps in the Odoo App Store.

Custom development offers the most flexibility but requires significant effort, while manual synchronization reduces risks but needs some manual input. Third-party apps can be quicker but rely on the app developer. Before implementing any solution, analyze your business needs, consider financial implications, and test thoroughly.


Hope it helps

Hello ZAMEEL ISMAIL
I hope you are doing well

Answer:
  • Returns are not synchronized by design in Odoo 18 Inter-Company Transactions. The module only handles forward flows (SO→PO, Deliveries→Receipts), not reverse operations.
  • For accounting refunds:  Enable "Generate Bills and Refunds" in Settings → Inter-Company Transactions — this syncs credit notes (out_refund → in_refund) automatically.
  • For stock-level returns:No built-in solution. You need a custom module to override stock.return.picking wizard and auto-create corresponding return pickings in the other company. 
    For reference :  sale_purchase_stock_inter_company_rules(Module) handles deliveries

    I hope this information helps you

    Thanks & Regards
