Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some suppliers can sometimes offer you to store and sell products
|
|
|
|
|
without having to buy those items: this technique is called **consignee
|
|
|
|
|
stock**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Consignee stock is a great way for manufacturers and suppliers to launch
|
|
|
|
|
new products. As resellers may be reluctant to buying a product that
|
|
|
|
|
they are not sure to be able to sell, consignee stock will allow them to
|
|
|
|
|
propose an item to check its market without having to pay for it in the
|
|
|
|
|
first place.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Odoo has the ability to manage consignee stocks through the advanced
|
|
|
|
|
settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Open the menu :menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Settings`,
|
|
|
|
|
and in the **Product Owners** section, select **Manage consignee stocks (advanced)**,
|
|
|
|
|
then click on **Apply**.

Reception of Consignee Stock
|
|
|
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the Inventory's Dashboard, open the **Receipts** and create a new
|
|
|
|
|
reception. You can see that in the right side of the page, a new
|
|
|
|
|
**Owner** line has appeared. You can specify the partner which owns the
|
|
|
|
|
stock or leave it blank if you are the owner.
