Create Odoo Receipts With Lot Numbers From Google Sheets
Receiving teams often log deliveries on a form or spreadsheet, then someone retypes each one into Odoo as a receipt with its lot number. This workflow watches your receiving sheet, finds the product and any existing lot in Odoo, and creates a receipt with the quantity, destination location and lot already filled in, ready for a lead to check and validate.

FAQs
Why a receipt instead of an inventory adjustment?
A receipt records where the stock came from, which lot it belongs to and who validated it, so the lot's history stays traceable. An adjustment only changes the on-hand count.
Does the workflow validate the receipt?
No. MESA's Odoo steps create and update records but don't press buttons, so the receipt waits as a draft with its lot filled in. A receiving lead opens it, checks the count and clicks Validate, which is when on-hand quantity goes up.
What if the lot number doesn't exist in Odoo yet?
The workflow passes it as a new lot name on the receipt line. Receipts can create new lots by default in Odoo, so the lot is created when the receipt is validated.
