Collaboration with Webkul
Recognising the need for a smooth integration between Odoo and Prestashop, Webkul suggested the Odoo Bridge for Prestashop module. This integration enabled real-time product synchronisation and stock updates.
With these features, the company was able to maintain consistency between its inventory and online store. To efficiently manage their products, the team chose to implement Odoo for inventory management while continuing to use Prestashop for their online sales.
Improvement and Customisation for Bleu de Chauffe
As time went on, the team identified several areas for improvement to enhance the functionality of their integrated systems. Webkul collaborated closely with them to develop custom solutions according to their needs.
Product mapping: They encountered challenges with product mapping since not all products had SKUs.
To address this, Webkul recommended mapping products using the EAN/barcode field instead.
This approach made their inventory management easy and allowed for accurate tracking of products across both platforms.
Order Management: The company wanted to import orders from Prestashop as quotations while using the prestashop for delivery.
Webkul customised the module to accommodate this requirement, ensuring that delivery orders are imported from Pretasshop to odoo. Also, make sure to maintain stock levels in Odoo were automatically updated with each order.
Stock Management: To resolve the stock mismatch issue, webkul implemented solutions to fix these discrepancies. Additionally, they introduced the POB Extension: Stock Comparison, which allowed the team to monitor stock levels effectively and ensure accuracy between Odoo and Prestashop.
Invoice Management: Transitioning to Odoo raised challenges in managing invoices, especially since the platform was new to the team.
Webkul assisted them by cancelling invoices for orders imported from Prestashop to Odoo, simplifying the invoice management process during the transition.
Communication and collaboration between Webkul & Bleu De Chauffe
Successful collaboration requires clear communication, which both Webkul and Bleu De Chauffe prioritised from the start.
Webkul’s teams held regular meetings to discuss updates, address challenges, and plan future enhancements.
This approach ensured that all parties were aligned and that any customisation requests related to the Odoo bridge for Preatshshop were addressed on time.
To ensure the smooth delivery of updates and features, Webkul quickly integrated customisations into the live system, making them available for immediate use.
Webkul also provided access to a project management tool, which allowed the Bleu De Chauffe team to track progress and maintain transparency throughout the collaboration.
