Hello Rose Marie, here’s how you can manage inventory count approvals in Odoo.
Odoo doesn't have a built-in approval step for inventory adjustments, but you can achieve this with a few configuration tweaks and user rights management.
First, create a new user group specifically for "Inventory Counters."
Then, limit the "Inventory Counters" group's access rights. Remove the right to "Apply Inventory." This prevents them from finalizing the inventory count.
Next, create another user group for "Inventory Managers." Grant them full access to inventory operations, including the right to "Apply Inventory."
Assign your employees to the "Inventory Counters" group, allowing them to input the counted quantities.
Assign your managers to the "Inventory Managers" group, enabling them to review and apply the counts.
Alternatively, consider developing a custom module that adds an approval workflow to the inventory adjustment process. This would involve creating a new state (e.g., "To Approve") and requiring manager approval before the inventory is updated.
