ShippingBo records the physical stock movements, such as supplier receipts and customer shipments. This data is then synchronized with Odoo in real-time, allowing for a reliable and up-to-date view of available stock.
The connector allows invoicing to be based on the quantities actually received and shipped.
For the suppliers, the quantities received in ShippingBo are transmitted to Odoo to facilitate reconciliation with invoices.
