Overview
Shipedge is a cloud OMS and WMS focused on 3PL warehouses and multichannel eCommerce fulfillment, while Odoo ERP is a modular open-source ERP that unifies inventory, sales, purchasing, accounting, and manufacturing under one database. The migration is a scope exercise as much as a data move: Shipedge stores routing logic in its Order Rules engine, channel credentials in its integration module, and kitting configurations in a Shipedge-specific format — none of which export as portable data. We extract Orders, Products, Inventory, Suppliers, Customers, Shipments, and Returns via the Shipedge REST API v4, restructure them against Odoo's stock.picking, product.product, and res.partner models, and flag Order Rules, integration credentials, and kit configurations for manual rebuild in Odoo. We do not migrate automations, carrier rate-shopping rules, or 3PL client billing logic as code. Odoo's open-source model and public pricing starting at $24.90/user/month contrasts with Shipedge's custom quote model, making cost predictability a common driver for the switch.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Shipedge object lands in Odoo ERP, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Shipedge
Orders
Odoo ERP
Sale Order (sale.order)
1:1Shipedge Orders map to Odoo sale.order records with order lines, partner shipping and invoicing addresses, and carrier service-level preserved. Shipedge's fulfillment status (pending, shipped, cancelled) maps to Odoo's picking_id state and order procurement workflow. We extract order source channel (Shopify, Amazon, Walmart) as a custom char field x_source_channel on the sale.order for reporting.
Shipedge
Shipments
Odoo ERP
Delivery Order (stock.picking)
1:1Shipedge shipment records map to Odoo stock.picking with carrier, service level, tracking number, weight, and dimensions preserved. Tracking URLs migrate as Char fields linked to the picking. If Shipedge stores multiple shipments per order (split shipments), each generates a separate stock.picking in Odoo.
Shipedge
Products
Odoo ERP
Product Template and Product Variant (product.template + product.product)
1:1Shipedge Products carry SKU-level details, variant attributes (size, color), supplier links, and barcodes. We map these to Odoo product.template (shared attributes) with product.product variants per SKU combination. Shipedge's barcode field maps to product.product barcodes. Supplier links map to product.supplierinfo records for purchase pricing and lead times.
Shipedge
Inventory
Odoo ERP
Quant (stock.quant) and Warehouse Location (stock.location)
1:1Shipedge inventory is warehouse-site-specific with location-aware quantities, lot numbers, and bin assignments. We map each Shipedge warehouse to an Odoo stock.location (type warehouse), each Shipedge bin to a child stock.location (type internal), and inventory quantities to stock.quant records linked to those locations. Lot and serial numbers migrate as stock.productionlot records and linked to quants.
Shipedge
Warehouses
Odoo ERP
Warehouse (stock.warehouse)
1:1Shipedge's multi-warehouse configuration maps to Odoo stock.warehouse records, each with its own picking types (incoming, outgoing, internal). We preserve warehouse address, operating hours, and carrier shipping accounts as Odoo warehouse configuration parameters. If Shipedge has cross-docking or drop-shipping rules, we flag these for manual reconstruction as Odoo warehouse routes.
Shipedge
Customers
Odoo ERP
Partner (res.partner)
1:1Shipedge Customer records map to Odoo res.partner with type customer. Name, email, billing address, and shipping address migrate directly. Order history associations export as a custom related field or many2many linking to sale.order records. Custom fields on Shipedge customers require manual field creation in Odoo and mapping during import.
Shipedge
Suppliers
Odoo ERP
Partner (res.partner) with vendor type
1:1Shipedge Suppliers map to Odoo res.partner records with supplier_rank set to 1. Contact details, lead times, and SKU associations migrate as product.supplierinfo records. We flag any custom fields on Supplier records for manual Odoo field creation and mapping. Purchase order history from Shipedge maps to Odoo purchase.order records if the customer activates the Purchase module.
Shipedge
Returns
Odoo ERP
Return Picking (stock.picking) + res.partner
lossyShipedge Return Authorizations, return reasons, and disposition codes map to Odoo return picking records. We translate Shipedge disposition codes (restock, dispose, repair) to Odoo stock.move scrap or repair records depending on disposition type. Return partner information maps to res.partner. We flag disposition mapping decisions during scoping because Odoo's return logic is module-specific (Stock vs Repair vs RMA apps).
Shipedge
Kits
Odoo ERP
Bill of Materials (mrp.bom)
lossyShipedge Kit configurations (which SKUs compose a kit, on-the-fly vs pre-built) map to Odoo mrp.bom records with type phantom for on-the-fly kit deduction or normal for pre-built assemblies. We export kit structure and component links but note that kit representation differs significantly: Odoo BoM uses product templates and routing operations that must be configured in the Manufacturing module. Manual BoM reconstruction is required post-import.
Shipedge
Batches
Odoo ERP
Lot/Serial Number (stock.productionlot)
1:1Shipedge v11+ Batch Fulfillment View records contain batch number, order count, SKU count, and units. Batch number maps to Odoo stock.productionlot (for lot tracking) linked to stock.quant. Batch metadata (order count, ship method) does not have a direct Odoo analog and is preserved as a note field on the production lot or as a custom Char field.
Shipedge
Order Rules
Odoo ERP
Warehouse Routes (stock.route) + Procurement Rules (procurement.rule)
lossyShipedge Order Rules define automated warehouse selection, carrier assignment, and split-order routing. These are Shipedge-specific workflow configurations with no Odoo direct equivalent. We export all Order Rules as a written inventory during discovery, identifying the rule name, trigger conditions, and routing actions so the customer's Odoo admin can rebuild them as stock.routes, procurement rules, or delivery.carrier rules. This is a manual rebuild exercise estimated at 1-3 days depending on rule complexity.
Shipedge
Integrations
Odoo ERP
Odoo Integrations (no direct migration)
lossyShipedge channel integrations (Shopify, Amazon, Walmart, Magento) store OAuth tokens and API credentials inside its integration module. These are platform-bound secrets that cannot be exported. We document which channels are active, their configuration parameters, and their order-pull and inventory-sync settings. After migration, every channel must be re-authorized in Odoo's eCommerce or Point of Sale modules. We provide a reconnection checklist to accelerate re-authorization.

Migration approach
Discovery and data audit
We audit the Shipedge account across all modules: order volume and fulfillment status distribution, product count and variant density, warehouse count and inventory location depth, supplier record completeness, return history and disposition code usage, kit configurations, batch records, active Order Rules, and active channel integrations. We extract a full data dictionary from Shipedge's REST API v4, identify duplicate records, flag missing fields (SKUs without barcodes, inventory without lot numbers), and produce a pre-migration data cleansing checklist. The discovery output is a written scope document with record counts per object and a data quality rating for each dataset.
Schema design and Odoo module selection
We design the destination Odoo schema based on the customer's business requirements: which Odoo modules to activate (Inventory, Sales, Purchase, Manufacturing for kits, Return Merchandise Authorization for returns), how many stock.warehouse records to create, which product type to use (product vs consumable vs service), and how to model kits. We create all custom fields on product.template, res.partner, and stock.picking before any data import. The schema design is validated in an Odoo sandbox or test database before production migration begins.
Warehouse and location mapping
We map every Shipedge warehouse to a corresponding Odoo stock.warehouse record with its picking types (Receipts, Deliveries, Internal Transfers). Each Shipedge bin location maps to a child stock.location within the warehouse hierarchy. If Shipedge uses cross-docking or drop-shipping rules, we document them for Odoo route configuration. We also map carrier accounts and shipping method configurations from Shipedge to Odoo's delivery module so that carrier selection logic is available post-migration.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into an Odoo test database using production-like data volume. The customer's operations lead reconciles record counts (orders in, sale orders validated, products in, inventory quants matched to Shipedge warehouse totals), spot-checks 20-30 records per object against the Shipedge source, and reviews kit BoM reconstruction and return disposition mapping. Any mapping corrections, field type mismatches, or missing custom fields are resolved in this sandbox phase before production migration.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in dependency order: stock.warehouse and stock.location first, then product templates and product variants, then supplier and customer partners, then sale orders and their lines, then delivery pickings linked to orders, then return pickings, then kit BoM records, then inventory quants, then batch lot records. Each phase emits a reconciliation report comparing record count and aggregate totals (order value, inventory quantity per SKU) to the Shipedge source before the next phase begins. Active orders in Shipedge during the migration window are delta-synced after the initial load.
Cutover, validation, and Order Rules handoff
We freeze Shipedge writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified in the migration window, then enable Odoo as the system of record. We deliver the Order Rules inventory document and the channel integration reconnection checklist to the customer's team. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Shipedge Order Rules as Odoo warehouse routes, nor do we re-authorize channel integrations, as these require the customer's credentials and admin access to each third-party platform.
