Streamlining logistics with FedEx integration
Client Challenges
Our client is a mid-sized e-commerce and wholesale distribution company managing thousands of orders each month across the USA and Europe. With multiple warehouses and growing order volumes, the shipping process has become increasingly complex, which requires better automation to reduce delays and errors.
Business Challenges
Before the integrations, the clients also relied on manual processes to even handle FedEx shipments. Each step -rate calculations, label generations, and even shipment tracking were also performed outside Odoo, which also led to:
Manual Data entry and errors time-consuming coordination between the sales, warehouse, and all the logistics teams
lack of real-time shipment due to inaccurate freight calculations.
