Freight Forwarding Management | Freight Operations | Freight Forwarder | Freight Shipment

Complete Odoo Freight Forwarding Management System for managing sea, air, land, rail, and multimodal shipments in one unified platform. Streamline freight order lifecycle from quotation to delivery — track containers, cargo, carriers, ports, customs clearance, Bill of Lading, Airway Bills, and operational milestones. Automated charge lines and invoicing with full Odoo Accounting, Sales, and Purchase integration. Perfect for freight forwarders, logistics companies, shipping agents, and import/export businesses looking to automate operations, maximize visibility, and deliver exceptional client service.



Key Features:

  1. Multi-Mode Freight Order Management

    Create and manage freight orders across all transport modes: Sea Freight, Air Freight, Land/Road, Rail, and Multimodal. Support for Import, Export, and Domestic shipment directions. Handle FCL (Full Container Load), LCL (Less than Container Load), Bulk, Air Cargo, RoRo, and Project Cargo shipment types in a single unified system.

  2. Full Shipment Lifecycle Tracking

    Track every freight order through its complete lifecycle: Draft → Confirmed → In Transit → Arrived → Delivered. Shipment status is tracked independently from invoicing/sales state, giving full visibility of physical cargo movement at every stage. Complete audit trail with change history and chatter for all status transitions.

  3. Container & Cargo Line Management

    Manage detailed container and cargo package lines per shipment. Record container/AWB numbers, seal numbers, gross weight, net weight, volume (CBM), commodity, and marks & numbers per container or cargo unit. Supports sea containers, air cargo pieces, and general cargo packages with configurable container types.

  4. Operational Milestone Tracking

    Auto-generated operational milestones for every freight order covering key logistics checkpoints: Pickup Cargo, Documentation, Export Customs Clearance, Booking Transport, Import Customs Clearance, Shipment Tracking, and Delivery Coordination. Mark milestones as Pending, In Progress, Done, or N/A. Track progress percentage, responsible users, planned and actual dates, and reference numbers per milestone.

  5. Bill of Lading & Airway Bill Tracking

    Track all transport documents including Original B/L, Telex Release, Sea Waybill, and Airway Bill numbers per shipment. Store booking numbers, Incoterms, and voyage/journey references. Maintain full document traceability from booking confirmation through to final delivery.

  6. ETD / ETA / ATD / ATA Date Tracking

    Track all critical shipment dates: Estimated Time of Departure (ETD), Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA), Actual Time of Departure (ATD), and Actual Time of Arrival (ATA). Automated validation ensures ETD is never later than ETA. Track freight delivery dates separately for last-mile delivery planning.

  7. Carrier & Vessel / Flight Management

    Maintain a comprehensive carrier master database covering Shipping Lines, Airlines, Trucking Companies, and Rail Operators. Record carrier codes, countries of origin, contact details, and linked vendor records for invoicing. Track vessel names, flight numbers, and voyage/journey numbers per shipment.

  8. Port & Airport Master Data

    Manage a complete port and terminal database with Sea Ports, Airports, Land Border / ICD, and Rail Terminals. Store IATA codes for airports and UN/LOCODEs for sea ports. Ports display as "Name (CODE)" in all dropdowns and reports for quick identification. Organize by country and state/province.

  9. Predefined Route Templates

    Define reusable origin-to-destination route templates with preferred carriers, transport modes, and standard transit days. Auto-populate origin port, destination port, carrier, and transport mode on freight orders when a route is selected — reducing data entry time and ensuring consistency across orders.

  10. Freight Charge Lines & Automated Invoicing

    Configure a flexible freight charge catalogue with service types such as Ocean Freight, THC, DO Charges, Origin Charges, Destination Charges, Customs & Documentation fees, and more. Charge lines are native Odoo sale order lines — giving full invoicing, tax, discount, and financial reporting out of the box. Auto-populate product and description from the service type catalogue.

  11. Shipper, Consignee & Notify Party Management

    Manage all shipment parties including Shipper (Customer), Consignee, Notify Party, and Destination Agent. Link to existing Odoo contacts for seamless CRM and communication. Track commodity descriptions and HS codes at the header level for customs documentation.

  12. Full Odoo Accounting & Sales Integration

    Seamlessly integrated with Odoo Accounting, Sales, Purchase, Stock, and Product modules. Freight orders are built on top of Odoo's native sale.order model — enabling automatic journal entries, invoice generation, payment reconciliation, financial reporting, and P&L statements. Multi-currency and multi-company support included.

  13. Professional QWeb PDF Reports

    Generate professional PDF freight order reports using Odoo's QWeb reporting engine. Print and share freight order confirmations, shipment details, cargo manifest, and charge breakdowns directly from the freight order view.

  14. Role-Based Access Control

    Control freight operations with granular role-based access control. Assign different access levels to team members including Freight User, Freight Manager, and Freight Administrator. Ensure data security and operational efficiency with customizable user roles and permissions for freight order creation, modification, cancellation, and financial operations.

  15. Auto-Generated Freight Order Reference

    Every freight order automatically receives a unique sequential reference in the format FO/YEAR/NNNNN (e.g., FO/2025/00001) using Odoo's IR sequence engine. Consistent, traceable, and professional order numbering across all freight operations.


Freight Order Management Features:

  1. Sea Freight — FCL & LCL Shipments

    Manage Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) sea freight shipments. Track shipping line carriers, vessel names, voyage numbers, port of loading, port of discharge, container numbers, seal numbers, and Bill of Lading documents. Support for Original B/L, Telex Release, and Sea Waybill.

  2. Air Freight — Airway Bill Management

    Handle air cargo shipments with airline carrier management, flight number tracking, AWB (Airway Bill) number recording, and airport-to-airport routing. Manage air cargo package lines with piece counts, gross weight, and volumetric weight calculations.

  3. Land / Road & Rail Freight

    Manage land road and rail freight shipments with trucking company and rail operator carrier management. Track journey numbers, inland container depots (ICD), land border crossings, and rail terminals as origin/destination points. Full customs clearance milestone tracking for cross-border land shipments.

  4. Multimodal Freight Coordination

    Coordinate complex multimodal shipments combining sea, air, land, and rail transport legs. Manage all parties, documents, and milestones in a single freight order, ensuring complete end-to-end visibility across all transport modes.

  5. Import / Export / Domestic Direction Management

    Handle Import, Export, and Domestic shipment directions with intelligent milestone management. Export Customs Clearance milestone is automatically marked N/A for import-only shipments, Import Customs Clearance is skipped for export-only, and both customs milestones are N/A for domestic shipments — eliminating unnecessary steps for your team.

  6. Freight Cancellation Wizard

    Cancel freight orders safely using the built-in cancellation wizard with reason capturing. Business rule validation prevents cancellation of delivered shipments. Cancelled orders can be reset to draft for re-processing when needed.


Master Data & Configuration Features:

  1. Freight Service / Charge Type Catalogue

    Define a comprehensive charge catalogue with service types mapped to charge categories: Origin Charges, Ocean / Air Freight, Destination Charges, Customs & Documentation, and Other. Link each service type to an Odoo product for seamless invoicing. Pre-configured demo data includes common freight charges ready to use from day one.

  2. Container Type Configuration

    Configure container and package type master records for all container sizes and types (20GP, 40GP, 40HC, 20RF, 40RF, etc.) as well as air cargo unit types (Pallets, Boxes, etc.). Container types are used across cargo lines for accurate manifest generation and reporting.

  3. Port & Terminal Master Data

    Pre-loaded with common port data covering major Sea Ports, Airports, Land Border Crossings, and Rail Terminals worldwide. All master data is fully customizable — easily add, modify, or deactivate ports to match your trade lanes and service areas.

  4. Pre-Configured Demo Data

    Start immediately with pre-loaded master data including freight service types, container types, common freight charge categories, carrier types, and port/terminal data. All records are fully customizable — modify, add, or remove items to match your business requirements.
