Using the inventory valuation
|
||
=============================
|
||
|
||
Inventory valuation refers to how you value your stock. It’s a very
|
||
important aspect of a business as the inventory can be the biggest asset
|
||
of a company.
|
||
|
||
In this documentation, we will explain how the inventory valuation works
|
||
in Odoo.
|
||
|
||
Inventory valuation: the basics
|
||
===============================
|
||
|
||
Receive a product
|
||
-----------------
|
||
|
||
Each time a product enters or leaves your stock, the value of your
|
||
inventory is impacted. The way it is impacted depends on the
|
||
configuration of your product (more info here).
|
||
|
||
Let’s take an example with a product - a table - configured with a
|
||
*FIFO costing method* and an automated inventory valuation.
|
||
|
||
I purchase 10 tables at a cost of $10.
|
||
|
||

|
||
:align: center
|
||
|
||
When I’ll confirm the receipt of the products, the value of my inventory
|
||
will be impacted. If I want to know what this impact is, I can click on
|
||
the valuation stat button.
|
||
|
||
.. tip::
|
||
The consignment feature allows you to set owners on your stock (discover
|
||
more about the consignment feature). When you receive products that are
|
||
owned by another company, they are not taken into account in your
|
||
inventory valuation.
|
||

|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
You need access rights on the accounting module to see that button.
|
||
|
||
In this case, I can see that the 10 tables entered the stock for a total
|
||
value of $100.
|
||
|
||

|
||

|
||
|
||
I can also easily access the accounting entry that has been generated
|
||
(in case of automated inventory valuation).

|
||
Deliver a product
|
||
-----------------
|
||
|
||
In the same logic, when a table will be delivered, the stock valuation
|
||
will be impacted and you will have access to a similar information.

|
||
|
||
The inventory valuation report
|
||
------------------------------
|
||
|
||
The summary of this is accessible via the inventory valuation report
|
||
(accessible from :menuselection:`Inventory --> Reporting --> Inventory Valuation`). It gives
|
||
you, product per product, the value of your stock. By clicking on the
|
||
button *Inventory At Date*, you can have the same information for a
|
||
past date.
