Problem
In Odoo, when you carry out stock & inventory operations such as doing inventory adjustment, creating scrap, etc. The system applies the current date and time for the move automatically which is sometimes not what you want.
For example, it seems to be impossible to input data for past operations or make a new Odoo implementation that requires data from the past.
The solution
This module gives you the ability to input your desired date in the past. The following operations are currently supported with backdating:
- Inventory Adjustment: When validating an inventory adjustment, a new window will be popped out with a date-time field for your input.The default value for the field is the current date-time, in case you don't need to record a past operation.
- Stock Scrapping: During validating a scrap from either a stock transfer or a standalone scrap order, a new window will be popped out with a date-time field for your input. The default value for the field is the current date-time.
The backdate you put will also be used for the accounting entry's date if the product is configured with automatic stock valuation. It supports all available costing methods in Odoo (i.e. Standard Costing, Average Costing, FIFO Costing).
Backdate Operations Control
By default, only users in the "Inventory / Manager" group can carry out backdate operations in the Inventory application. Other users must be granted access to be able to use this feature.
Known issues
- Since the accounting date field on the journal entry does not indicate a specific time, the backdated stock transfer date may not be the customer's time zone. It might cause a visual discrepancy between the stock move's date and the accounting date. This problem could be solved as follows:
- Assume that your time zone is UTC+7.
- Validate a stock transfer between 00:00 and 07:00, at your local time.
- Go to the corresponding accounting journal entry to find its date could be 1 day earlier than the stock transfer's date.
