One common task in warehouse management is moving packages from one location to another. But what if you don’t want to scan each item inside a package? Good news—you don’t have to.
In this quick guide, we’ll walk you through how to move an entire package in Odoo using the Internal Transfer Menu, without scanning individual items.
Move an Entire Package Demo
📦 Move a Whole Package in a Few Simple Steps
Instead of scanning every single item inside a box or pallet, Ventor PRO allows you to scan the package barcode and move the entire contents at once. This saves time and reduces human error in your warehouse operations.
1️⃣ Select the Package to Move Start by choosing the box or pallet. In our case, we selected a nicely labeled package with a barcode and multiple tea products inside.
2️⃣ Open the Internal Transfer Menu In Odoo, navigate to the Internal Transfer section. Although there are multiple fields (such as source location, products, etc.), we only focus on scanning the package barcode.
3️⃣ Scan the Package Barcode Once scanned, Odoo identifies the current location of the package. For example, our package was originally located on Shelf 2 and had the ID 2040931.
4️⃣ Choose the Destination Location Next, scan the barcode of the new location—like Bin 2 on the same shelf or another location entirely within your warehouse. Odoo will instantly prepare to move the entire package there.
5️⃣ Confirm the Move After confirming the action, the package (along with all the products inside it) is automatically updated in the system as moved. No need to touch or scan the individual items inside.
✅ Verify the Transfer
To double-check the move, use the Quick Info Menu. Just scan the package barcode again, and the Ventor app will show you all items currently inside the package, along with their updated location. It’s fast, simple, and accurate.
Why This Matters
This workflow is perfect for teams managing bulk inventory or frequently relocating items across storage zones. It reduces time spent on manual scanning and helps maintain an organized, real-time view of stock locations.

For several years now, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been changing not only our daily lives but also how we do business and manufacturing. While the first thing most people associate with AI is simplification, what we are looking at, in fact, is a complex set of interconnected components combined in various ways. Regardless of composition, AI is gaining relevance in the logistics industry, helping to optimize workflows and significantly improve efficiency. With the help of modern AI tools, the speed and quality of order processing are enhanced as errors are reduced. Such improvements decrease the load on support teams, due to automation of accurate work performed by software and related mechanisms.
Warehouse operational efficiency is critical for maintaining overall productivity, and it is exactly AI that provides this efficiency. A wide range of modern warehouse solutions currently exist on the market, such as Ventor PRO—a solution that is trusted by a huge number of successful companies. In this article, we elaborate on the importance of AI in competitive warehouse operations and share tips for using the most modern solution to significantly simplify your company’s operations while increasing efficiency.
Benefits of AI in Warehousing
When talking about AI in logistics, we first consider inventory management. By using AI-based solutions, enterprises avoid under- or over-stocking, since these tools analyze all inventory data and optimize inventory levels. In addition, AI also optimizes inventory management tasks, such as supplier management and demand forecasting. A huge advantage of AI is its ability to quickly analyze large amounts of data, allowing you to accurately and confidently predict future sales. Moreover, by analyzing detailed data on traffic congestion, weather conditions, and cargo delivery times, AI generates the most efficient routes. This saves delivery time, reduces fuel consumption, and significantly reduces vehicle wear and tear.
Of course, AI has a huge number of benefits. Below, we give a examples of those most important for successful warehouse operations.
Cost reduction. Given the most recognized reason for being in business, AI helps to reduce costs and thereby increase competitiveness. AI systems integration works toward reducing transportation costs, inventory management, and even personnel costs, since, due to automation, many processes are performed without human employees.
Faster operations. Modern AI-based solutions significantly shorten the execution of operations, thereby increasing productivity for core warehouse activities, such as picking and packaging, scanning barcodes for inventory control, and quickly identifying optimal routes. In addition, AI systems operate every day and around the clock.
Improved accuracy. The use of AI systems ensures high accuracy of operations, such as that needed for inventory management or order picking. This is primarily due to the absence of human factors. Such systems can also predict and prevent errors. This significantly improves the quality of customer service and reduces the number of returns.
Real-time data processing. AI systems quickly and accurately analyze large amounts of data, enabling companies to optimize supply chains and inventory levels, detect security breaches in logistics operations, and effectively forecast demand; along with shortening delivery times, a high level of customer satisfaction is guaranteed.
Effective barcode scanning. Barcodes are the backbone of goods movement, as they help us to avoid manual data entry errors. Software solutions that read barcodes and identify empty cells ensure a smooth and quick inventory control process.

How the Ventor app helps your business grow
Ventor PRO is the most comprehensive barcode scanner application for warehouse management for the Odoo ERP system; it integrates with Odoo to streamline warehouse tasks. The app provides instant access to all product details in your Odoo ERP from the warehouse scanner, allowing you to receive goods and take inventory faster. Operations supported by this application include processing and shipping of goods, product information, lot management, inventory control, internal movement of goods, and receiving and delivery.
The application allows you to record barcode-related data, such as quantity of goods, date manufactured, or expiration date. The main advantages of Ventor PRO are improving the accuracy and efficiency of product accounting while avoiding errors in product inventory management.
Ventor, as a client-based mobile application, provides a bridge between warehouse operators and the Odoo ERP system, facilitating real-time inventory management. It enables tasks such as retrieving picking orders, navigating product locations, and updating Odoo with order fulfillment statuses. For instance, when a picker receives an order, the app guides them through the warehouse to complete the task. Once finished, the application sends confirmation back to Odoo, indicating that the order has been shipped.
Given this structure, integrating AI directly into the mobile app isn’t necessary. Instead, AI logic should stay in the Odoo ERP (server-side), where it can provide intelligent decision-making capabilities. From our experience, AI can significantly enhance Odoo Inventory efficiency by:
Optimizing product placement – Determining the best storage locations for goods based on demand patterns, retrieval frequency, and warehouse layout.
Improving picking strategies – Selecting the most efficient picking method (single order, wave, batch, or cluster picking) based on workload and operational needs.
Prioritizing tasks dynamically – Assigning priority levels to orders based on urgency, customer preferences, or stock levels.
By implementing AI within the ERP system, warehouses can achieve higher efficiency, reduced picking times, and smarter inventory management. If you’d like to explore these benefits further, feel free to reach out to us for an in-depth discussion.
