Most of businesses are vulnerable to any change in supplies. Often when you sell a product you already need to know when and on which conditions this item would be purchased. This is the tool to efficiently access, update, and import information about your vendors' products, prices, and stock levels.
Vendor products catalog
The tool introduces a new stand-alone classifier of vendor products. Each supplier should have an own catalog with unique product names and codes.
Any vendor product might be linked to your own product. In such a way a purchase manager goal becomes to match 'their' products with 'ours'. Each of our product variants might have a few related vendor products.
Any purchase manager may create, update, and archive vendor-related objects. Any Odoo user with an access to products might rely upon vendor data for informational purposes.
As soon as you installed the module, Odoo would automatically create vendor products based on existing products' supplier infos.

Vendor product form

Vendor stocks control
Manage vendor products' stock levels to make better decision while selling those. It is of especial importance in case of make-to-order logistic or drop shipping.
You may access info of vendor products' stocks right from product variant, product template, and supplier form views. You should just click a related button to get an overview.
- Each stock level is provided per definite vendor location (warehouse)
- Assign an unlimited number of vendor locations per each supplier. Locations are distinguished by name, address, and average delivery time
- Keep stock levels in vendor units of measure, but make sure it has the same category as our linked product. The idea is to support conversion in order internal users work with habitual figures. For example, dozens and units are fine, while dozens and hours might lead to mistakes
- Stock levels are not used in our moves, but they are provided for general information. Stock levels are updated either manually by purchase managers or through the import process

Those prices are considered as standard Odoo 'supplier info' which correspondingly are used in purchase orders.
