Hi,

In standard Odoo 18, there isn’t a built-in notification that automatically alerts the Purchasing team when a receipt is validated. The workflow is designed so that vendor bills are usually created from the purchase order or directly registered by Accounting, not triggered at receipt validation.

You can customise:

1. Using Automation:

Go to Settings → Technical → Automation → Automated Actions.

Create a new action on the model Stock Picking.

Trigger: On Update.

Domain/Filter: picking_type_code = 'incoming' and state = 'done'.

Action: Send Email → target the Purchasing group or specific users.This way, as soon as a receipt is validated, an email notification goes out.

Hope it helps.
