Dead Stock Report for Odoo | Identify Slow-Moving Inventory & Reduce Holding Costs
Inventory is one of the biggest investments for any business. However, products that remain unsold for months silently consume warehouse space, lock up working capital, and increase storage costs.
The Dead Stock Report by TheERPBot helps businesses quickly identify inventory that has remained unsold beyond a configurable period. Whether you're managing a manufacturing company, retail store, wholesale distribution, or eCommerce business, this module provides complete visibility into stagnant inventory so you can take corrective action before it impacts profitability.

Why Dead Stock Management Matters
Dead stock directly affects cash flow and operational efficiency.
Common challenges businesses face include:
- Products sitting in warehouses for months or years
- Capital tied up in non-moving inventory
- Increased warehouse and storage costs
- Difficulty identifying slow-moving items
- Lack of accurate inventory aging reports
- Manual analysis using spreadsheets
With the Dead Stock Report, these challenges are eliminated through intelligent inventory analysis directly inside Odoo.
Key Features
Configurable Dead Stock Threshold
Every business defines dead stock differently.
Configure the number of days after which inventory should be considered dead, such as:
- 60 Days
- 90 Days
- 180 Days
- 365 Days
The configuration is company-specific, making it ideal for multi-company environments
Accurate Physical FIFO Aging
Unlike simple stock aging reports, this module calculates the actual physical age of inventory.
It intelligently:
- Uses original receipt history
- Ignores financial revaluations
- Handles returned goods correctly
- Determines the true age of inventory currently on hand
This provides far more reliable results than standard inventory aging calculations.
Support for Tracked & Non-Tracked Products
The module works seamlessly for:
- Serial Number Products
- Lot Tracked Products
- Standard Inventory Items
- Commodity Products
No additional configuration is required.
Dead Stock Value Analysis
Know exactly how much capital is locked inside non-moving inventory.
The report displays:
- Quantity on Hand
- Stock Age
- Inventory Value
- Receipt Information
This helps management prioritize clearance strategies based on financial impact.
Powerful Reporting Views
Analyze inventory using multiple reporting formats.
Available views include:
- List View
- Pivot View
Users can group reports by:
- Product

- Warehouse Location
This makes it easy to identify trends and pinpoint problem areas.
Original Receipt Location Tracking
Know where inventory originally entered your warehouse.
The module tracks the initial receipt location even for non-tracked products, providing complete inventory traceability.
