Items as warehouse

ERPNext Stock/Inventory
1

I would like to implement the following:
Some items(storage containers/silo’s/…) should have the option to become a warehouse. These should have a parent warehouse, but should switch parent warehouse if they are transferred with a stock transfer. They should effectively be treated as both a warehouse and an item.

  • I could customize the item form to add a check-box ‘is warehouse?’ and the if yes add a parent warehouse, but I’m wondering how the links would work in this case and certainly the implementation regarding the possibility to transfer these items and let them switch parent warehouse automatically to their new storage location.

Could someone help me to figure this out, or is there already an option to do this?

Cheers

This functionality is not available out of the box. You might want to create a custom app and write a hook on item validate to create a Warehouse based on your conditions.
