Inventory agent
Monitor levels in real time. Optimise min/max. Free tied-up cash.
At a glance#
The Inventory agent assigns a health score to every catalogue SKU and to your overall stock. It detects zero-rotation items, min/max that no longer match your activity, gaps between theoretical and physical inventory, and seasonal risks.
Every week you get the ten highest-impact actions, immobilised cash quantified and min/max adjustments ready to apply after validation.
What the agent detects#
- Zero-rotation SKUs: no outbound movement for 90, 180, or 365 days
- Obsolete min/max: current settings far from observed consumption
- Inventory inconsistencies: recurring gaps between theoretical and physical stock after counts
- Dangerous coverage: coverage under 10 days with supplier lead times over 15 days
- Unanticipated seasonality: history shows an imminent peak, current stock insufficient
- Ghost SKUs: active references in Odoo with no movement or valuation for over a year
Typical impact#
85,000 €
immobilised cash identified on average at initial scan
Orders of magnitude depend heavily on sector and size:
- Distribution / e-commerce SMBs: €50,000–€200,000 dormant stock
- Industrial SMBs (30–80 people): €100,000–€400,000 (raw materials + FG + WIP)
- Mid-market industrials (80–200 people): often above €800,000 on low-rotation references

● Aucune action n'est envoyée vers votre Odoo sans votre validation explicite.
The Inventory agent can:
- Detect obsolete min/max → propose a new value, you validate, it applies in Odoo
- Alert on a dormant SKU → propose actions (destock, return, write-off), you choose
- Flag stockout risk → prepare a replenishment request, passed to the Purchasing agent after validation
It never automatically changes:
- Product records (price, description, category, valuation)
- Historical stock movements
- Recorded physical inventories
Frequently asked questions#
Does it handle multiple locations and multi-warehouse?
Yes on all three plans. The agent reads Odoo multi-warehouse structure (warehouses, locations, internal locations) and can recommend site-to-site transfers to balance levels before triggering supplier orders. The only per-plan limit is the number of connected Odoo instances (1 on Starter, up to 3 on Business, unlimited on Scale).
How does it treat lot-tracked or serial-number items?
When lot or serial tracking is enabled in Odoo, the agent takes it into account. It detects lots approaching expiry and serial numbers blocked without documented reason, especially useful in food and medical.
Are min/max recommendations applied automatically?
No. New min/max are proposed per SKU with context (average consumption, seasonality, supplier lead time). You validate each change, or batch-validate when you trust a group. Nothing goes live in Odoo without explicit validation.
What about SKUs in stockout with dead demand?
The agent detects the classic pattern: system stockout while no customer has requested the item for six months. It then proposes disabling the alert rather than ordering, sometimes archiving the SKU if dormancy is confirmed.
Will rolling counts be disrupted?
No. The agent is strictly read-only on physical inventories. It can suggest a smarter rolling count schedule: prioritise high-value SKUs with a history of high variance rather than counting everything at the same frequency.
