Dynamic Stock Picking Reservations

Dear Community,  

I am looking for a way to handle dynamic stock picking reservations.  
Specifically, I am looking for functionality to automatically reserve products based on planned delivery dates, rather than solely by order confirmation. 
This should also cover situations where a later order is scheduled to be delivered before an earlier order for which quantities have already been reserved, by reassigning the reservation as needed.  

I could not find a solution that directly addresses automated reservations based on delivery dates or customer priorities.  

Has anyone in the OCA community worked on such a feature before, or is there an existing solution or recommended approach to achieve this?  

All the best,  
Nils

    Hello Nils,

    This ensures that reservations are made by order date (first ordered, first served) by placing a virtual reservation.
    You are then free to place the physical reservation in any order depending on who you want to deliver first (but always respecting the quantity you promised to each customer)

    Hi Lin,  

    oh, thanks for the hint! That’s new to me and I wasn’t aware of it — super helpful.  

    I’ll check if this fits our scenario and see how it behaves, or if it might interfere with other logics.  

    Thanks again!  

    Best,  
    Nils

    Hi Nils

    Have you tried to set the reservation method to Before schedule date? You can see this https://www.odoo.com/documentation/19.0/applications/inventory_and_mrp/inventory/shipping_receiving/reservation_methods/before_scheduled_date.html and probably its the standard feature that you are looking for.

    Regards
    Lin

    Hi Nils,

    - The unreserver is quite low-tech, it's basically "for pick in pickings; pick.unreserve()" but then with a bit more selectivity on which ones to unreserve.
    - A manual trigger for that could of course be a manual run of the scheduled action during the day
    - The scheduler horizon is, if I remember correctly, an OCA module

    If you would like more info or to see it in action drop a mail at info@therp.nl

    Hey Tom,
    Thanks for your reply and for sharing the details!  

    The setup you describe is almost exactly the kind of behavior we are looking for. Maybe a manual trigger to re-reserve quantities would also be useful, but that’s not a big deal if the cron is already defined.  

    Would it be possible to get access to this solution or have a closer look at how it’s implemented?  
    If this is not already available, I would consider tackling this for the OCA ecosystem. I think a solution like this could definitely be something the OCA provides, but before reinventing the wheel… it would be great to see what already exists.  

    Cheers Nils

    Hi Nils,

    what we have at one customer is a solution we partly inherited from another integrator, but which works OK:

    - every night, a custom unreserver cron runs which unreserves all items

    - then, the regular Odoo scheduler cron kicks in and re-reserves items according to new priorities

    - we have a scheduler horizon of 1 week to prevent reserving very far into the future
