Manage Amazon orders in Odoo
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
Synchronization of orders
|
||||
=========================
|
||||
|
||||
Orders are automatically fetched from Amazon and synchronized in Odoo at regular intervals.
|
||||
The synchronization is based on the Amazon status: only orders whose status has changed since the
|
||||
last synchronization are fetched from Amazon. For **FBA** (Fulfilled by Amazon), only **Shipped**
|
||||
and **Canceled** orders are fetched. For **FBM** (Fulfilled by Merchant), the same is done for
|
||||
**Unshipped** and **Canceled** orders. For each synchronized order, a sales order and a customer are
|
||||
created in Odoo if they are not yet registered.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If you did not request access to Personally Identifiable Information of your customers in the
|
||||
:ref:`Developer Registration and Assessment form <amazon/developer-form>`, the customers are
|
||||
created anonymously (the name, postal address and phone number are omitted) and named
|
||||
**Amazon Customer**.
|
||||
|
||||
When an order is canceled in Amazon and was already synchronized in Odoo, the corresponding sales
|
||||
order is canceled in Odoo.
|
||||
When an order is canceled in Odoo, a notification is sent to Amazon who will mark it as such in
|
||||
Seller Central and notify the customer.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
To force the synchronization of an order whose status has not changed since the last
|
||||
synchronization, activate the **Developer mode**, navigate to your Amazon account and modify the
|
||||
date under :menuselection:`Orders Follow-up --> Last Order Sync`. Pick a date anterior to the
|
||||
last status change of the order that you wish to synchronize and save.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
To synchronize immediately the orders of your Amazon account switch to **Developer mode**, head
|
||||
to your Amazon account and click the button **SYNC ORDERS**. The same can be done with order
|
||||
cancellations and pickings by clicking the buttons **SYNC CANCELLATIONS** and **SYNC PICKINGS**.
|
||||
|
||||
Manage deliveries in FBM
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
When a **FBM** (Fulfilled by Merchant) order is synchronized in Odoo, a picking is created along
|
||||
with the sales order and the customer. You can either ship all the ordered products to your customer
|
||||
at once or ship products partially by using backorders.
|
||||
|
||||
When a picking related to the order is confirmed, a notification is sent to Amazon who will, in
|
||||
turn, notify the customer that the order (or a part of it) is on its way.
|
||||
|
||||
Follow deliveries in FBA
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
When a **FBA** (Fulfilled by Amazon) order is synchronized in Odoo, a stock move is recorded for
|
||||
each sales order item so that it is saved in your system. Inventory managers can find such moves
|
||||
in :menuselection:`Inventory --> Reporting --> Product Moves`. They pick up products in a specific
|
||||
inventory location called **Amazon**. This location represents your stock in Amazon's warehouses
|
||||
and allows you to manage the stock of your products under the FBA program.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
To follow your Amazon (FBA) stock in Odoo, you can make an inventory adjustment after
|
||||
replenishing it. You can also trigger an automated replenishment from reordering rules on the
|
||||
Amazon location.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
The Amazon location is configurable by Amazon account managed in Odoo. All accounts of the same
|
||||
company use the same location by default. It is however possible to follow the stock by
|
||||
marketplace. First, remove the marketplace for which you want to follow the stock separately from
|
||||
the list of synchronized marketplaces. Then, create another registration for this account and
|
||||
remove all marketplaces, except the one to isolate from the others. Finally, assign another stock
|
||||
location to the second registration of your account.
|
||||
|
||||
Issue invoices and register payments
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
You can issue invoices for Amazon orders in Odoo. Click **Create Invoice** in the sales order to do
|
||||
so. You can also do it in batch from the list view of orders. Then, confirm and send the invoices to
|
||||
your customers.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
To display only Amazon-related orders on the list view, you can filter orders based on the sales
|
||||
team.
|
||||
|
||||
As the customer has paid Amazon as an intermediary, you should register invoice payments in a
|
||||
payment journal dedicated to Amazon (e.g. Amazon Payments, with a dedicated intermediary account).
|
||||
You can do the same with the vendor bill received from Amazon and dedicated to commissions. When you
|
||||
receive the balance on your bank account at the end of the month and record your bank statements in
|
||||
Odoo, you simply credit the Amazon intermediary account by the amount received.
|
||||
|
||||
Follow your Amazon sales in sales reporting
|
||||
===========================================
|
||||
|
||||
As a sales team is set on your account under the tab **Order Follow-up**, this helps you give quick
|
||||
glances at the figures in just a few clicks in Sales reporting. By default, your account's sales
|
||||
team is shared between all of your company's accounts.
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish, you can change the sales team on your account for another to perform a separate
|
||||
reporting for the sales of this account.
|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
It is also possible to perform reporting on a per-marketplace basis in a similar fashion. First,
|
||||
remove the marketplace you wish to track separately from the list of synchronized marketplaces.
|
||||
Then, create another registration for this account and remove all marketplaces, except the one to
|
||||
isolate from the others. Finally, assign another sales team to one of the two registrations of
|
||||
your account.
