Hibou Odoo Suite: Sales Modules: Sale Order Planner - Delivery Route

Purpose

This documentation covers the installation, configuration, and functionality of Hibou's Sale Order Planning - Delivery Route module for Odoo. Delivery Routes are automatically derived on a sales order based on the delivery address for a sales order.

Getting Started

The first step is to install the module. To do so, navigate to the Apps application.


Once there, remove the 'Apps' filter, then search for 'Sale Order Planning - Delivery Route'. When you're ready, click install.


Good to Know!

The Sale Order Planning - Delivery Route module requires the Hibou Sale Order Planner and Warehouse Delivery Routes modules. However, if you do not already have these installed, Odoo will install them for you during this module's installation. 

Process

To get started, navigate to the Inventory app.

Important!

This document only covers the additional feature of the Delivery Route, which requires you to setup the Sale Order Planner prior to following these steps.

Please review the steps in our Sale Order Planner documentation.
