Why manage your purchasing with Odoo
Odoo Purchase organizes the relationship with your vendors: requisitions, purchase orders, receipts and vendor bills in a single flow. You know what you've ordered, what's about to arrive and what's still to pay.
With reordering rules, the system proposes what to buy and when based on minimum stock and forecast sales, so you neither run out of product nor overstock.
By integrating with Inventory and Accounting, every receipt updates stock and every bill enters the accounting without duplicating work. At Nextdoo we tailor it to your purchasing policy.
Fewer stockouts and less excess stock
Getting purchasing right is a delicate balance: overbuying ties up cash and underbuying leaves you without product. Odoo Purchase uses your stock and forecast sales to propose what to reorder and when, so that balance no longer depends on gut feeling. At Nextdoo we tune the reordering rules to your real turnover so the warehouse works with data, not with scares.
