Common problems
- Landed cost is a spreadsheet only one person understands.
- Document sets are assembled by hand for every shipment and something is always missing.
- Multi-currency gains and losses are reconciled long after the fact.
- Buyers ask for status updates that take half a day to compile.
- Nobody can say the true margin on a completed shipment.
Expected outcomes
- Landed cost calculated consistently across freight, duty and handling
- Document sets generated from shipment data rather than retyped
- Multi-currency handled in the accounts, not on the side
- Shipment status answerable in seconds
- Real margin per shipment and per buyer
How we implement Odoo for import & export
Export and import margins are decided by costs that arrive after the sale — freight, duty, handling, currency movement. If those land in a spreadsheet, the business is always reporting last quarter’s truth. We structure landed costing into the system so each shipment absorbs its real costs as they are incurred, generate the document set from shipment data instead of retyping it, and give the buyer-facing team a status they can answer immediately.
