Odoo ERP for Trading Companies
Whether retail, wholesale or online trading:
All processes should function as efficiently as possible, so that your employees can realise their full potential. Odoo helps you achieve this - by mapping processes smartly and achieving a maximum with minimal effort.
Trading companies
There are many basic requirements that are the same in retail, wholesale & online trading. In addition, retail companies often have their own specific processes that need to be mapped in the ERP. Odoo effortlessly bridges this gap: Odoo already covers most requirements in the standard, and the rest can be tailored to fit.
Introduction of the main apps
Warehouse App
The warehouse is the centre of all trading and manufacturing companies. Odoo Warehouse provides everything you need to work effectively. Inventory management with double entries, barcode support, batches and serial numbers, transport management, managing multiple warehouses, documentation of all movements, connectors (for DHL, Amazon, eBay), capturing scrap, cross-docking, defining your own picking steps, etc.
Sales App
The Odoo Sales App includes all the important features to sell successfully worldwide. Creating quotes, invoices and tenders, electronic signatures, integrated communication, price lists with individual rules, configurable quote templates, customer portals, contract management, order-specific routes, product configurator, shipping costs based on variables, various product types etc.
Purchasing App
With the Odoo Purchasing App, you have full control over your inventory. A key guarantee for this are the granularly adjustable minimum stock levels, which automatically send requests for quotes to your suppliers, or the forecasted stock levels attached to each product that clearly show when shortages will occur. Other features include the (automatic) export of price lists, creating tenders and framework agreements etc.
CRM App
For all companies that no longer want to be mid-range in sales & customer service, Odoo CRM is the first choice! Odoo CRM is fully integrated, transparent, clear, functional - and simply efficient when it comes to satisfied customers and effective processes.
Online Shop App
Odoo includes its own online shop (and Point of Sale), which works fully integrated with all apps (Inventory, Sales, Purchasing..). Advantages: annoying interfaces (with all their problems) are eliminated, a single data base and cross-departmental real-time data.
Point of Sale App
With Odoo Manufacturing, you get a comprehensive solution that works holistically across all business areas - transparent, clear & automated. Fully integrated apps include: Inventory, Sales, Purchasing, PLM, Maintenance, Quality - as well as the main production schedule, which ensures efficient timing control of production. Additional features include: multi-level bills of materials, creating sets, serial numbers and batches, and capturing by-products.
App Accounting
Every business must know what the current financial situation is and has the corporate responsibility to properly (and digitally) record invoices and receipts and to carry out accounting processes accurately. Odoo Accounting works cross-departmentally with the Sales, Purchasing, and DMS apps, with all the benefits that arise from this. Features: easy operation and processes, GoBD compliant, automatic bank synchronisation, integrated standard chart of accounts, asset accounting, receivables management, and Datev interface (separate).
App Projects
With Odoo Projects, you can not only manage complex projects but also offer unique services. The app is the centre of each order: here, individual tasks are created, processed, and exact times are tracked (Odoo App Time Tracking). Based on this, project-related invoices are generated, which are very easy for customers to understand.
Odoo E-Commerce
The integrated online shop is one of Odoo's super strengths! No interface, fully integrated, real-time data, ready connections to eBay & Amazon, and effective processes make Odoo the first choice for companies when it comes to trading professionally. With Odoo, you not only impress your employees but also your customers: Odoo simply looks great, works smartly, and the interface can easily be adapted to your customers' needs - the integrated website builder makes it possible.
Interfaces
If you have already decided on an online shop software or have a modern online shop like Woocommerce, Shopify or Shopware running, that is also not a problem: Odoo can be connected to the respective online shop via an interface and completely customised. In addition, there are already many interfaces to common marketplaces like Amazon & Ebay.
