For Saudi Arabia's importers, distributors and manufacturers, stock is the business, and inaccurate stock is lost margin. Odoo Inventory and Manufacturing give accurate, real-time control across warehouses in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Jubail, with barcode operations, MRP and full traceability. Here is the complete setup.
Multi-warehouse across the Kingdom
Manage unlimited warehouses and internal locations, a main DC in Riyadh, a port depot in Jeddah, Eastern Province stock and vans, with inter-warehouse transfers, routes and per-location quantities all visible in real time.
Barcode operations
Run receipts, deliveries, internal transfers, picking, packing and stock counts on phones or rugged scanners with the Odoo Barcode app, which dramatically speeds up warehouse work and cuts picking errors.
Reordering, MRP & procurement
Minimum/maximum reordering rules, make-to-order and the MRP scheduler trigger purchase or manufacturing orders automatically when stock is needed, so you neither stock out nor over-buy, with supplier lead times and price lists built in.
Landed costs for importers
Landed-cost handling spreads freight, insurance, customs duty and SABER/clearing charges across imported goods, so valuation and margins reflect the true cost of stock, essential for Saudi importers pricing against real cost.
Manufacturing, BOMs & work orders
Food, plastics, packaging, building-materials and industrial producers use multi-level bills of materials, routings, work orders, work-centre capacity planning and shop-floor control, with subcontracting and by-product handling where needed.
Quality control & maintenance
Quality checks and control points gate receiving and production at the right steps, while preventive and corrective maintenance keeps work centres and equipment running, reducing unplanned downtime.
Lot, serial & expiry traceability
- Full upstream/downstream traceability from supplier to customer.
- Expiry-date and shelf-life management for food and pharma (SFDA-aware).
- Lot and serial tracking for warranties, recalls and audits.
- Removal strategies (FIFO, FEFO, LIFO) per warehouse.
Real-time valuation & accounting
Odoo provides automated real-time inventory valuation using FIFO or average cost, with valuation and COGS journal entries posted straight to Odoo Accounting, so your balance sheet always reflects actual stock value.
Connected to sales, purchase, POS & eCommerce
Inventory is shared across Sales, Purchase, POS and eCommerce, so online, shop and warehouse stock always match, with every sale issuing a ZATCA-compliant invoice. No overselling, no manual stock sync.
Reporting & forecasting
Stock valuation, turnover, ageing, forecasted availability and ABC analysis dashboards give purchasing and finance the numbers to optimise working capital, with drill-down to any move.
