I have seen this question in the forum but always years old... can I have my inventory reduced when I create and validate a sales receipt/invoice??? It seems like a basic feature that is very important to how my business operates.

So how would I implement said customization. I am coming from Quickbooks and stock was increased from vendor bills and decreased from sales receipts/invoices. I'm looking for a similar workflow

Ok Thoufeer, so how do I implement that to create an Invoice and have inventory mark down??

Once a Sales Order is created and products are delivered, the Invoice is created with a single click - automatically bring over the products, prices and delivered quantities from the Delivery Order.

It is a change from Quickbooks, but is much more valuable as it gives you a way to check if and order for 10 actually received 10 or perhaps 9 if you were low on stock.

Your Odoo Advisor or Odoo Partner can show you how easy this is (although it is a change).

In Odoo, Inventory is reduced when a Delivery Order is validated.

Normally these are created from Sales Orders.

If you have a Sales Order for 10 units and deliver 9, the invoice will automatically be created for 9 units.

Review some of the documentation or watch some of the eLearning videos to understand how this all works.

Hi,

Typically, when you generate an invoice for a storable item or goods without a preceding sales order or delivery note, the stock remains unchanged. Conversely, if you first create a sales order and a delivery note, the inventory will be adjusted downwards, enabling you to issue the invoice. To align with market trends, especially in trading, we have implemented a customization that allows stock to decrease as soon as the invoice is created and confirmed.
