AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Connect Odoo deliveries to the DB Schenker booking and tracking service. Configure a DB Schenker shipping method, send bookings from a transfer, print labels and follow the parcel status.

This module adds DB Schenker as a shipping method you can select on a delivery carrier. On the carrier form a new "Schenker Configuration" page appears with connection details (access key, group, user), label options (A4 or A6 format, optional e-mail copy, start position and separate pages for A4), service options (booking type, default incoterm, service type, land or air service, indoor delivery, express, food related, heated transport, home delivery, own pickup, pharmaceuticals) and logistics options (default package type and measure unit).

When you validate a transfer with a Schenker carrier, Odoo sends the booking to Schenker, stores the booking reference as the tracking number and attaches the barcode document to the transfer. A "Schenker Label" button on the done transfer lets you download the label again. Tracking updates retrieve the latest events and set the delivery status and history on the transfer.

Business rules: only land booking and volume measure are accepted; other choices raise an error. The incoterm from the sale order overrides the carrier default. A set of Schenker package types (pallet, carton, europallet, etc.) is preloaded, and package types can be marked as stackable. Schenker does not provide rate calculation, so another pricing method must be used.

OCA documentation · Odoo 18.0

Installation

Source · Odoo 18.0

This module depends on the zeep python library and the OCA/delivery-carrier delivery_package_number and delivery_state modules.

The Schenker API doesn't provide delivery rating methods, so OCA's delivery_price_method is advised in order to use this carrier in a sales workflow.

Configuration

Source · Odoo 18.0

To configure a Schenker delivery method:

  • Go to Inventory \> Configuration \> Delivery \> Shipping methods and create a new one.
  • Choose DB Schenker as provider.
  • Configure the service parameters according to your contract considerations.
  • Choose a delivery product and a default packaging. This is mandatory for the booking request as it needs the packaging code.

To make tests, set the carrier environment to test from the smart button. Don't forget to set it to production once you're ready to use the delivery method!

Usage

Source · Odoo 18.0

These are the operations possible with this module:

Place shipping bookings

  • When the picking is validated, the shipping will be booked at Schenker.
  • With the response, we'll receive the delivery tracking number and the pdf label in a chatter message and it will be kept as attachment to the document.
  • You can manage packages number either with the proper Odoo workflows or with the package number field available in the Additional Info tab. You'll get as many labels as declared packages.

Cancel bookings

  • As in other carriers, we can cancel the shipping after the picking is done. To do so, go to Additional Info tab and click on the Cancel action on the side of the tracking number.
  • We can generate a new shipping if necessary.

Get labels

  • If by chance we delete the generated labels, we can obtain them again hitting the Schenker Label buttons in the header of the picking form.

Tracking

  • The module is integrated with delivery_state to be able to get the tracking info directly from the DB Schenker API.
  • To do so, go to a picking shipped with Schenker. In the Additional Info tab you'll find an action button to Update tracking state so the state will be updated from the Schenker API.

Debugging

The API calls and responses are tracked in two special fields in the picking that can be viewed by technical users. You can also log them in as ir.logging records setting the carrier debug on from the smart button.
