Success Stories of Transformation in Trading Operations
Each Odoo success story shows how tackling hidden costs and vendor issues leads to stable margins and stronger customer trust.
Why Odoo with Uncanny is your control tower for trading operations?
Think of Odoo as the trading backbone and Uncanny as the brain behind your operations: coordinating lanes, paperwork, and deliveries so commercial and logistics teams stay in sync.
Years of rollouts for importers and distributors taught us how freight, duty, and fees disrupt margins. We configure Odoo so pricing reflects true landed cost, not guesswork.
Every trade lane carries its own risks, duties, and handoff points. With Odoo, Incoterms, HS codes, and customs data flow automatically through orders and documents.
Trading peaks come with large catalogs, multiple warehouses, and strict SLAs. Our Odoo deployments stay stable when shipments surge, ensuring ETAs hold and service levels remain consistent.
From week one, cleaner landed costs and steadier OTIF rates improve margins. Dashboards go live instantly, giving leaders a clear view of where to act.
Trading rules and markets shift constantly, encompassing tax regimes, vendor networks, and compliance checks. We continue to adapt Odoo beyond the go-live phase as your business evolves.
Shipments cannot pause during an ERP switch. That’s why we run dry runs, test every flow, and deliver rollouts with zero downtime.
Trading Complexities that Odoo Simplifies
Growth in general trading adds complexity: containers, currencies, and regulations. Without the right system, delays rise, margins slip, and customers lose trust. With Odoo, you navigate these challenges with clarity and control.
Landed Cost & Margin Variables
Freight, duty, and insurance often remain unaccounted for within the system, scattered across the spreadsheets. This makes the true product cost unclear and the margin calculations unreliable.
Odoo’s landed cost module assigns every charge directly to SKUs and lots, giving you accurate pricing, cleaner margins, and real profitability insights.
Incoterms & HS Codes
Inconsistent handling of Incoterms and HS codes causes shipment delays, customs disputes, and missed compliance checks.
With Odoo, ownership, duties, and codes are embedded in each order and document, ensuring smooth cross-border trade and fewer clearance problems.
Multi-Currency Exposure
Currency fluctuations often rewrite margins after orders are closed, leading to unexpected losses at reconciliation.
Odoo’s multi-currency accounting and revaluation tools keep rates current, post gains and losses automatically, and give finance predictable P&L visibility.
Packaging & Shipping - Disconnected Network
Mismatch between supplier packaging and warehouse picking units leads to short shipments, relabeling, and wasted labor.
Odoo’s packaging and UoM settings align supplier packs with warehouse flows, ensuring orders ship correctly without requiring extra handling or manual calculations.
Split Shipments & ETAs
Partial deliveries and backorders often confuse billing and leave customers uncertain about arrival times.
Odoo reconciles deliveries under one order truth, updates ETAs automatically, and keeps invoices aligned with what actually ships.
Vendor Reliability
Late or inconsistent supplier performance can lead to costly air freight, emergency purchases, and stockouts.
With Odoo, vendor scorecards, lead times, and alternative sourcing feed directly into reordering rules, making risks visible earlier and supply steadier.
Returns & Dispositions
Returned items often re-enter stock without checks, creating errors and repeated defects.
Odoo’s RMA flows route items to be refurbished, reboxed, or scrapped, with clean credit notes to maintain accurate stock and financial records.
Marketplace Management
Missed ASN windows, incorrect labels, or wrong pack rules result in penalties and hurt seller ratings.
Odoo enforces compliance rules during order preparation, generates accurate ASNs and labels, and ensures shipments meet marketplace and 3PL requirements.
