In this video, you can see how to setup Virtual warehouse, routes and rules in #odoo17 to efficiently use it for your multi warehouse operations. How to use virtual warehouse & locations where you need to commit sale and pick the delivery from multiple warehouse locations in single delivery. As well how to use same virtual warehouse to plan re-ordering of stock and raise single RFQ based on multiple warehouse locations.
Let's look at Virtual Warehouse Pros:
Flexibility: Odoo allows you to set up multiple warehouses and locations. A virtual warehouse might provide flexibility in managing inventory without physical constraints.
Cost Efficiency: If your business operates in a virtual or dropshipping model, a virtual warehouse setup can help you reduce costs associated with physical storage and logistics.
Centralized Control: Virtual warehouses can be managed centrally, providing a single point of control for overseeing multiple warehouses or locations.
Real-time Visibility: Odoo's real-time tracking and reporting capabilities can provide up-to-date visibility into virtual warehouse operations, helping in better decision-making.
Global Reach: For businesses with an international presence, virtual warehouses can be set up to handle inventory management across different regions or countries efficiently.
Cons:
Complexity: Setting up and managing virtual warehouses might add complexity to your overall system configuration. It requires a good understanding of Odoo's settings of routes and rule.
Integration Challenges: Integrating virtual warehouses with other business processes, such as sales, procurement, and manufacturing, might pose challenges and require careful planning.
Data Accuracy: Relying on virtual warehouses may introduce risks related to data accuracy, especially if there are discrepancies between the virtual representation and the physical reality of inventory.
Training Requirements: Users and administrators need to be adequately trained to understand the virtual warehouse setup and effectively manage inventory in a virtual environment.
