Pick-Wall Location Restriction

This feature enforces location restrictions for Pick-Wall operations in Odoo’s Inventory and Barcode modules. Locations marked as “Is Pick-Wall Location” can only be used as destination locations in transfers whose operation types are explicitly allowed in system settings. Admins can configure permitted operation types under Settings → SME: MRP Location Restriction, ensuring controlled and accurate location usage across warehouse processes.

The MRP Location Restriction feature enhances warehouse accuracy by limiting the use of Pick-Wall locations to specific operation types. By introducing a configuration-driven control, this feature ensures that designated Pick-Wall bins only appear as valid destinations for eligible transfers, reducing errors and improving operational flow.

Key Benefits

  • Controlled Location Usage: Prevents Pick-Wall locations from being used in unrelated transfers.
  • Configurable Permissions: Admins can define which operation types can use Pick-Wall locations.
  • Improved Accuracy: Ensures items are moved only to valid storage bins during manufacturing and inventory operations.
  • Error Prevention: Eliminates accidental selection of restricted locations.

User Workflow

  1. Setup Configuration
    • Go to Settings → Search for “SME: MRP Location Restriction”.
    • Enable the feature and select allowed Operation Types.
  2. Mark Pick-Wall Locations
    • Navigate to Inventory → Configuration → Locations.
    • Open or create a location and enable “Is Pick-Wall Location”.
  3. Perform Transfer
    • When processing a transfer, Pick-Wall locations will only appear in the Destination Location dropdown if the operation type is one of the allowed ones.
    • If not allowed, these locations remain hidden, maintaining proper operational discipline.
