ODOO'S FUNCTION
Odoo provides three costing methods (Standard Price, FIFO, AVCO) and offers tracking policies by lots or unique serial numbers. This traceability approach effectively addresses most requirements for up and down traceability, including reporting and tracking. However, it may not fully cover the aspects of product life management.
CLUEDOO'S FUNCTION
Cluedoo expands the concept of serial numbers from an inventory-focused notion to a master data concept at a sub-level of the product variant. This allows for comprehensive tracking of the life of each lot/serial number from its initiation to the conclusion of the corresponding product. The extension of lot/serial numbers from inventory information to master data objects necessitates integration into various Odoo apps.
Additionally, Cluedoo introduces a new "Lot/Serial Number" costing method.
