Currently stock moves are auto-assigned (i.e. reserve free stock) both
when the scheduler is run and when a corresponding stock move that can
assign a move is completed. This strictness was causing issues for
prioritization of moves to assign, for example a picking with a
scheduled_date far in the future could automatically reserve all stock
if it was created before another picking that an immediate
scheduled_date. To ease this, an extra setting has been added to
stock.picking.type to let users choose how reservations should occur for
moves assigned to that picking_type (or picking with that picking_type):
1. 'at_confirm' = automatically when:
- stock is available when the move's associated picking/MO is
confirmed,
- when new stock becomes available,
- when the scheduler is triggered (+ stock available).
2. 'manual' = user must always manually click "Check Availability"
button (scheduler will no longer reserve).
3. 'by_date' = automatically when within the move's reservation_date
and:
- stock is available when the move's associated picking/MO is
confirmed,
- new stock becomes available when move is already confirmed, or
- the scheduler is run (+ stock is available).
'by_date' has an extra option of # days before the move's scheduled
date that affects the move.reservation_date.
