Stock Move Valuation Usage

This module allows to trace the usage of stock move valuation. That is, makes it possible to identify which stock moves were used as sources for a given outgoing stock move, and how much quantity and value was taken from each source move.

Note: In Odoo 19.0, stock valuation layer model was removed and valuation is now tracked directly on stock moves through the ‘value’ field.

This kind of traceability is important in case that at some point you want to conduct a revaluation (for example, in case that the purchase order price changes after the products have been received into stock).

Also, it changes the way the outgoing move values are calculated in order to respect the MTO case. When creating the outgoing move valuation, Odoo uses FIFO to consume from the first available incoming moves with value. The module stock_move_valuation_usage improves this process. For standard FIFO, it always uses the oldest move. However, for MTO cases, when there is a fixed link between the incoming move and the outgoing move, the system should use the specific incoming move not just the oldest one. Also, when the case is not MTO, the system should avoid using moves that are “reserved”.
