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.

The tool is compatible with both Odoo Enterprise and Odoo Community.

Summer Rush Buying now you save 15.0% of the standard price. The offer is valid till August, 15

Using the tool Vendor Products Portal you may also attract vendors themselves to that process

The tool introduces a new stand-alone classifier of vendor products. Each supplier should have an own catalogue 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

Purchase managers keep and update prices of all supplied products. Those prices are considered as standard Odoo 'supplier info' which correspondingly are used in purchase orders

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. Look at the section Vendor Stocks

The tool let you import vendor products and prices as an Excel table. Look at the section Import products and prices

Import stock levels of suppliers also as an Excel table. Look at the section Import products and stocks

Access data about vendor products' stocks right from product variant, product template, and supplier form views. You should just click a button to get an overview

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

The module features depend on your Odoo version. Please select required one on the top right of this page

Vendor stocks

Our warehouses' stocks are not linked to vendor stocks. Vendor stocks are absolutely independent since we can't control all supplier moves, and, hence, can't support double-entry system

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

Import products and prices

The tool let purchase users import vendor products and prices as an Excel table of the predefined format

The table format is supplied with this tool source code and would be available for you on the configuration page as the 'Template for vendor products import' and in the import wizard on the tab 'Help'

The wizard offers useful tips to make a correct import. You may edit those recommendations on the configuration page, but make sure you do not remove critical advice
Each import finishes with the special results' and errors' pop-up. It let you control of what has been actually done
