# Internal Stock Quant Package

This module allows to declare internal stock quant package.

Sometimes, when an operator is picking, he needs to put the product in internal packages placed on his trolley that will be emptied later.

Two kinds of operations can lead to the emptying of the internal packages:

> - when product from the internal packages will be ‘put in pack’ at the pack station (in a pick / pack / ship scenario)
> - when a carrier will load his truck with the products from the internal packages (in a pick / ship scenario)

This modules extends the stock module to add the concept of internal stock quant package and therefore allows you to manage this kind of operational need. It ensures that the internal stock quant packages are emptied when required depending on the picking type configuration.

# Usage

As this addon rely on the concept of “internal” packages. If you want to use packages into your picking operations, you need first to activate the package functionality in the stock settings (see the “Operations” section).

Then, you need to create packages and set them as internal. This is done by going to Inventory > Products > Packages and clicking on the “Create”. (Don’t forget to tick the “Internal use” box).

By default, when you put your products into an internal package when processing a picking, once the picking is done, the package is automatically emptied. You can change this behavior at 2 levels:

1. At the picking type level: go to “Inventory > Configuration > Operation Types” and edit the picking type you want to change. Then, untick the “Empty Internal Package On Transfer” box. (By default internal packages are always emptied when the picking is done). 2. At the picking type level for a specific carrier: go to “Inventory > Configuration > Operation Types” and edit the picking type you want to change. Then, add or remove lines in the “Stock Internal Package Config Line” table. You can add a line for a specific carrier and tick/untick the “Empty” box.

To know if internal packages must be emptied or not for a given picking, the system will first check if a configuration line exists on the picking type for the carrier of the picking. If a line exists, the system will use the value of the “Empty” box. If no line exists, the system will use the value of the “Empty Internal Package On Transfer” box of the picking type.
