How to manage product reservations in Odoo?

Why is the product displayed as unavailable if it is in stock?

In the Odoo system, a situation may arise when creating:

• customer order,
• production order,
• or moving between warehouses

The product is displayed as unavailable, although it is actually in stock.

Reason: This situation occurs due to automatic reservation of goods for other operations. That is, the goods are physically available, but are already "reserved" for another movement or order.

How do I check where an item is reserved?

1. Go to the document that displays the product availability issue.
2. Click on the icon next to the quantity of the product – “View forecast”:

3. In the window that opens, you will see:

1. • The actual quantity of goods in stock;
   • Reserved quantity;
   • Links to documents in which the product is reserved.

How to cancel a reservation?

There are two ways:

1. Cancel all reservations

• Click the "Cancel reservation" button directly in the report.

2. Cancellation of individual positions

• In the warehouse document for which the reservation was made, change the quantity in the "Quantity" column for a specific item.

If the document is no longer relevant, cancel it completely.

How do I re-reserve items?

1. Open the required warehouse document.
2. Click the "Check Availability" button.

3. The system will try to reserve available product positions again.

How does automatic booking work?

After confirmation:

• customer order,
• production,
• moving between warehouses —

Odoo automatically creates a warehouse document, which reserves the available goods in the warehouse.
