Odoo Inventory: real-time stock with traceability and Brazilian tax compliance
Multi-location inventory management with full traceability
Manage multiple warehouses, lots, serial numbers, and expiry dates in a single system. Odoo Inventory ties into the Brazilian localization maintained by KMEE: inbound NF-e through SEFAZ, SPED Fiscal (EFD-ICMS/IPI), ANVISA and MAPA controls, for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers operating in Brazil.
Why Odoo Inventory?
Real results our clients achieve.
Full stock visibility
Balances by location, lot, serial number, and expiry date in real time. Decide on accurate data, with no parallel spreadsheets.
Inbound NF-e integrated with SEFAZ
Receiving with NF-e XML import, automatic SEFAZ validation, and stock update. Discrepancies surface before the goods are posted.
SPED Fiscal without rework
Stock moves feed EFD-ICMS/IPI directly (Blocks C, H, and K). Physical inventory is exported to SPED with no manual extraction.
Automatic replenishment rules
Reordering rules, min/max quantities, or make-to-order. Purchase or manufacturing orders are generated automatically when stock hits the trigger.
Features
What's included in this module.
Multi-warehouse and multi-company
Multi-level warehouse structure (warehouse, zone, aisle, shelf, position). Internal transfers with or without a fiscal document, depending on the type of move.
Lot and serial number traceability
Automatic FEFO and FIFO. Full trace from origin to destination, essential for ANVISA (pharma, food) and MAPA (agribusiness).
Inbound NF-e from XML
Import the inbound invoice XML, reconcile it against the purchase order, and update stock and costs automatically.
Physical inventory and adjustments
Cycle or full counts generating SPED Fiscal Block H. Adjustments carry a recorded reason for tax audit purposes.
Routing rules (push/pull)
Define automatic movement routes: receiving -> quarantine -> stock, or stock -> shipping -> customer. Complete flow flexibility.
Inventory valuation
Average cost, FIFO, or standard cost. Revaluation and direct integration with the general ledger for automatic reconciliation.
Picking and shipping
Picking, packing, and delivery orders tied to sales orders. Transport document generation integrated with CT-e.
Correios shipping rates and labels
Integration with the Correios CWS API built by KMEE: price and delivery-time quoting right on the sales order, pre-posting created when the outbound transfer is validated, tracking code stored on the document, and the PDF label attached automatically. The customer follows the tracking from the portal.
Reporting and BI
Dashboards for turnover, stock cover, ABC analysis, and obsolescence. SPED export and management reports in one click.
Native integrations
Odoo Inventory connects natively with other Odoo modules, no external integration.
Why implement with KMEE
KMEE integrates Odoo Inventory with the Brazilian tax localization (OCA l10n-brazil), automating inbound NF-e, SPED Fiscal Blocks H and K, and ANVISA/MAPA controls. The shipping end is ours as well: the integration with the Correios CWS API was built by KMEE and covers the full cycle: price and delivery-time quoting on the order, pre-posting generated when the transfer is validated, tracking code, PDF label attached to the document, and cancellation from Odoo itself, in both the sandbox and production environments. Our team has more than 10 years of experience with inventory operations in Brazil.
Who it's for
Scenarios where this module delivers the most value.
Distributors
High SKU counts with lot traceability, FEFO, and SPED Block K compliance for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical distributors.
Manufacturing
Raw material, WIP, and finished goods control integrated with MRP, SPED Block K, and ANVISA obligations.
Retail and wholesale
Multi-warehouse, inter-branch transfers, and cycle counting without stopping operations, with SPED Fiscal automated.
Agribusiness
Traceability required by MAPA for pesticides, seeds, and fertilizers, with expiry and destination control.
Shipping through Correios
Operations that ship via Correios quote freight at the moment of sale and leave the warehouse with the label printed and the tracking code already stored on the order, with no retyping addresses in an external portal, no pasting tracking codes by hand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Odoo Inventory support multiple warehouses in Brazil?
Yes. You can set up as many warehouses, zones, and positions as you need, with transfer rules between branches and NF-e issuing for transfers.
How does inbound NF-e work?
You import the inbound invoice XML. The system validates it with SEFAZ, reconciles it against the purchase order, and updates stock and the general ledger automatically.
Does physical inventory feed SPED?
Yes. The OCA l10n-br-account module (maintained with KMEE among its core maintainers) generates EFD-ICMS/IPI Block H from the physical inventory recorded in Odoo.
Can I quote freight and print Correios labels straight from Odoo?
Yes. The integration built by KMEE talks to the Correios CWS API, the successor to SIGEP Web: you quote price and delivery time on the sales order, and when the outbound transfer is validated Odoo creates the pre-posting, stores the tracking code on the document, and attaches the PDF label. Cancelling the pre-posting and the tracking link on the customer portal are covered too. It requires a Correios contract, a posting card with the services enabled, and the API access code generated on the CWS portal. KMEE configures and validates everything in the sandbox first.
Can I track lots with expiry dates?
Yes. Odoo supports lots, serial numbers, and expiry dates, with automatic FEFO and FIFO strategies per product or category.
