Niyu Smart Stock
Overview
A definitive overview of the module’s purpose, its hybrid cloud architecture, system dependencies, and explicit operational boundaries.
Core Business Outcome
- Niyu Smart Stock is an AI-assisted inventory planning application that converts historical demand and supply data into a daily operational planning queue.
- It forecasts future demand for eligible product-warehouse pairs and translates this into replenishment quantities using lead time, safety stock, Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ), and fixed-order constraints.
- It checks internal warehouses for surplus before proposing external purchases, and creates draft RFQs or confirmed internal transfers.
Architecture & Responsibilities
- Local Odoo: Collects Odoo demand/supply data, builds the daily series, computes stock positions/policies, creates RFQs and transfers, and renders local dashboards and Demand History.
- Niyu Cloud: Validates licenses/quotas, queues asynchronous forecast jobs, and returns 30/60/90/120-day forecasts along with model telemetry.
Module Dependencies
- The module integrates with
stock(warehouses, quants, internal transfers),sale_management(historical demand),purchase(RFQs, vendor lead times), andweb(OWL dashboards, charts). - It communicates via gzip-compressed JSON over HTTPS with a license key header.
System Boundaries
- Decision Support: The forecast recommends and prepares work; users retain full control over document confirmation.
- No Automation Overreach: It does not automatically validate internal transfers or confirm Purchase Orders.
- Data Integrity: It does not calculate "lost sales" or reconstruct historical reservations; out-of-stock history is based purely on physical stock movements.
