Dropshipping Intro

This video provides an overview of the Dropshipping workflow in Odoo18, where products are shipped directly from the vendor to the customer without ever entering your warehouse.

• Workflow Overview: The video explains that when a customer buys a dropshipped item, Odoo generates a Purchase Order to the vendor and a direct delivery from the vendor to the customer.
• Activating the Feature: The tutorial shows how to enable “Dropshipping” in Purchase > Configuration > Settings.
• Product Configuration: To use this, the video demonstrates selecting the “Dropship” route on the product form under the Inventory tab and linking a vendor.
• Transaction Flow: The video tracks a Sales Order that automatically triggers a Purchase Order. Once the vendor confirms shipping, the user validates a “Dropship” picking in Odoo to finalize the sale.
