Hi,
Odoo, including version 18, does not offer an out-of-the-box feature for automatic item numbering based on product categories. The "Internal Reference" field for products is typically a unique identifier that can be manually entered or follow a simple sequential numbering system, but it does not automatically generate numbers with category-specific prefixes or sequences by default.
While Odoo provides robust features for managing product categories and tracking products using lot and serial numbers, these functionalities do not extend to automatically assigning product internal references based on their category during creation.
To achieve automatic item numbering on a category basis in Odoo 18, you would typically need a custom solution:
Custom Development: This is the most common approach, involving the creation of a custom Odoo module. This module would define sequences for each product category (e.g., "CAT1-0001", "CAT2-0001") and then, upon product creation, automatically assign the next available number from the sequence corresponding to the selected product category.
Odoo Studio (for Enterprise users): For Odoo Enterprise users, Odoo Studio offers tools for customization and automation. While it might be possible to configure some basic automation rules, a comprehensive solution for category-based sequential numbering would likely require more advanced scripting or integration with custom Python code, which might be beyond the standard capabilities of Studio's no-code/low-code interface.
Hope it helps.
Hi,
This is general need who maintain the master with discipline structure. I accept that this is not given in standard Odoo 18 or in 19. So, I used the automation and studio and achieved it.
Thanks,

There is no such configuration option available in Odoo.
You should however be able to set something like this up using Automation Rules. See https://www.odoo.com/documentation/18.0/applications/studio/automated_actions.html

It's unclear to me what you are actually asking for. Given your question is unanswered for 7 days, this probably is the case for others as well. Please add details and examples of what you want to achieve.
Hi Christoph Farnleitner...
Thanks for revert . Okay, here is an example of what I asked for.
Most of the item should have numbers as reference. For example, we specify Finished goods category should follow the numbering sequence as shown (category/Constant) or There is a formula. So FG0001, for Raw material RM0001 similar like transaction numbering. How can we do via configuring in Odoo.
