How to manage the return after a rental

I do not sell pallets to some customers but hire them.

Do you mean “rent” them? Or it is just “in bail”?

@Vincenzo

I managed the return of the pallets by the customer with a move that moves the pallets from the customer location to my warehouse (storage).

I would use a return shipment. This way you can have the two steps “received” and “done” which is “incoming moves” and “inventory moves”.

Also I would use product of type “asset” so they do not generate any stock accounting.

And if it is really a rental business, you may have a look at the sale_subscription module and Asset subscribed. Your case may require to extend the last one to manage outgoing shipment and return at the start and end date of the subscription.
