Reordering Rule in Odoo
In Odoo Reordering is used to define the rules which allow you to describe the Minimum and Maximum Level of Stock. The minimum level of stock is a certain determined minimum quantity of raw materials or stock inventory and that should always be available in stock in the normal course of business.
Odoo allows you to set up rules so that an automatic raw material for those items is made, based on minimum stocks available. In Odoo Reordering is used to maintain at least a minimum qty stock of specified items. The rule is based on essential quantities and not simply on original quantities.

Add vendor with minimum qty greater than zero from Inventor tab.
Now you can click on the reordering button to create the reordering rule of the product and fill the following field like minimum qty, maximum qty and qty multiple.
The number of Day(s) to get the products. Lead Time is the delay in delivery of products.
