Purchase Stock Picking Backorder Policy

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/stock-logistics-workflow Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module integrates stock_picking_backorder_policy with purchases.

It adds a Purchase Backorder Policy on the vendor, and a Backorder Policy on the purchase order, defaulted from the vendor and adjustable per order.

When the order is confirmed, the policy is carried over to the receipt it generates.

Usage

To set a vendor’s backorder policy:

  1. Open the contact form and go to the Sales & Purchase tab.
  2. Set a Purchase Backorder Policy (Ask, Always or Never). It is shared with the contact’s other addresses.

On a purchase order, the Backorder Policy is set by default from the vendor and can be adjusted manually before confirmation.

When the order is confirmed, the policy is carried over to the receipt it generates. On validation of a partial receipt:

  • Ask: the usual backorder prompt is shown.
  • Always: a backorder is created automatically for the missing quantity.
  • Never: the missing quantity is cancelled.

Returns are not subject to the policy: they always follow the operation type’s own Create Backorder setting.
