STORY BEHIND THE FEATURE
ODOO BEHAVIOUR
In inventory and accounting workflows, accurate landed cost allocation is essential to reflect the true value of incoming products. However, mismatches between landed cost date, stock valuation date, and accounting date in journal entry can result in inconsistencies in reporting, leading to confusion in cost tracking and misalignment in the general ledger.
CLUEDOO BEHAVIOUR

Landed cost date
Valuation date in stock accounting
Accounting date in journal entry
✅ Ensures consistency in all related dates for inventory and financial records.
✅ Fully integrates with Odoo's automatic accounting settings.
✅ Prevents misalignments that could affect cost of goods sold (COGS) or inventory asset value.
