We connected an AI-based route planner with Odoo to automate dispatch planning. So delivery fees are calculated using distance, order size, and service rules, while routes are optimized by location and load. This reduced fuel spend, improved on-time deliveries, and made daily scheduling easier for the logistics team.

Challenges
1
Disconnected Inventory Systems
The retail chain struggled with isolated inventory systems across multiple outlets, leading to frequent stock-outs and inaccuracies. Odoo customization provided centralized inventory control, real-time stock visibility, and improved inventory accuracy for seamless multi-store operations.
2
Manual Sales Return Process
Sales returns were handled manually, causing long customer wait times and inventory mismatches. Through Odoo POS automation, we streamlined return workflows, reduced processing time at checkout, and ensured real-time inventory updates across all retail locations.
3
Inefficient Delivery Route Planning
Delivery costs were high due to poor route optimization and manual fee calculations. Odoo route optimization automated delivery planning, reduced fuel expenses, improved delivery speed, and provided customers with more flexible free or paid delivery options.
4
Time-Consuming Document Handling
Manual processing of invoices and waybills slowed down order fulfillment and increased human errors. Odoo Al document automation accelerated document generation, reduced paperwork, and integrated documentation directly with inventory and delivery workflows.
5
Repetitive Manual Retail Tasks
Retail teams wasted time on repetitive tasks like stock transfer approvals and delivery checks. Odoo process automation simplified internal workflows, improved accuracy, and boosted staff productivity across all outlets.
6
Lack of Real-Time Insights
Retail managers lacked real-time visibility into inventory and delivery operations. Odoo dashboards provided 24/7 monitoring of stock levels, delivery statuses, and helping teams make faster and more accurate decisions.

Solutions
1
Fragmented Inventory Across Locations
We set up a single inventory system in Odoo so every store and warehouse works from the same stock data. So stock levels update instantly after receipts, transfers, and sales. This improved accuracy, reduced stockouts, and made inter-branch transfers faster and easier to manage.
2
Paper-based Sales Returns
We built a POS return flow in Odoo so cashiers can complete returns in a few clicks. So refunds or store credits are issued faster, and stock updates instantly at the right location. This reduced counter time, cut return errors, and improved the customer experience.
3
Slow and Costly Route Planning
4
Slow, Manual Documentation
We set up AI-assisted document automation in Odoo to generate invoices, waybills, and receipts with the right data pulled automatically. So your team spends less time on paperwork and more time on shipping. Also, documents stay linked to inventory moves and deliveries, which reduces errors and speeds up order completion.
5
Repeated Manual Store Operations
We automated everyday retail actions in Odoo like stock transfer approvals and delivery confirmations so teams don’t chase updates or re-enter the same details. So each location follows the same steps, errors drop, and work moves faster. This reduced manual effort and helped staff focus on customers and sales instead of admin work.
6
Limited Day-to-Day Visibility
We built live dashboards in Odoo so managers can track stock movement, delivery progress, and sales trends as they happen. So they spot issues early like delayed shipments or low stock on fast sellers and act before orders get affected. This improved decision speed and made fulfillment more accurate across locations
