Sorting suppliers based on date and price
Sorting suppliers based on date and price
STORY BEHIND THE FEATURE
ODOO BEHAVIOR
In Odoo, vendor pricelists are not sorted systematically when multiple suppliers are listed for the same product. The system does not prioritize suppliers based on validity dates or pricing, which can lead to inefficiencies when selecting the most appropriate vendor.
CLUEDOO BEHAVIOR
Cluedoo enhances vendor pricelist management by introducing an intelligent sorting mechanism based on validity dates and pricing, ensuring that the best supplier options appear at the top. The sorting logic follows these refined rules:
① Priority on Validity Dates – Suppliers with a valid Start Date and End Date are prioritized first, regardless of their pricing. This ensures that suppliers with active, up-to-date agreements appear before those without set validity periods.
② Optimized Price Sorting – When multiple suppliers have valid Start Date and End Date, they are further sorted by price in ascending order, ensuring that the most cost-effective option appears first.
