Verify stock with blind double counting, barcode and camera scanning, portal counting and tolerance reconciliation.
What it does
Blind Dual-Count Inventory makes your physical stock counts trustworthy. Two people count the same locations blind, never seeing the system on-hand or each other's figure. The system reconciles both counts against a tolerance you define, a tie-break recount settles any disagreement, and only the verified result is applied through Odoo's native inventory adjustment. Nothing touches your stock until a supervisor approves it.
Key features
- Blind dual count with a single counter fallback mode for smaller teams.
- Full-screen barcode counting station with USB scanner, keyboard wedge and device camera support, including lot and serial numbers.
- Portal counting so internal or external counters can count from their portal with no back-office access.
- Configurable tolerance, tie-break recount, supervisor reconciliation, reason codes and variance reporting.
- Verified counts applied through Odoo's own inventory adjustment, keeping valuation and stock moves correct.
Who it's for
Warehouses, retailers, manufacturers and any business that needs accurate, audit-ready stock counts and wants to remove single-counter bias, typos posted straight to stock, and paper re-keying from their physical inventory process.
Frequently asked questions
How do I run a blind stock count in Odoo so counters cannot see the system quantity?
Assign two counters to a count plan. Each counts from the scanning station or the portal where the on-hand quantity is never shown. Only the supervisor sees system figures and variances.
Can a counter use a barcode scanner or a phone camera?
Yes. The counting station accepts a USB scanner or keyboard wedge and also offers a camera button to scan with a phone or tablet. Each scan adds one unit, and lot or serial barcodes are recognised.
What happens when the two counts do not match?
If the difference is beyond your tolerance, the line is flagged for a recount. The supervisor enters a decisive tie-break count, which becomes the quantity applied to stock.
Can people outside the company count from the portal?
Yes. A counter can be a portal user. They sign in to the portal, open only the counts assigned to them, and enter quantities. They have no access to the back office or to system stock.
Does it change my stock automatically?
No. Nothing is posted until the supervisor reviews and approves. The verified count is then applied through Odoo's native inventory adjustment, keeping valuation and stock moves correct.
