Please keep the following points in mind to avoid getting an error message while placing a delivery with Aramex Shipping Carrier.

1) Valid Credentials

Please use the correct Aramex credentials to configure the module and successfully generate Aramex shipping in Odoo backend and on the website.

2) Correct Destination and Sender Address

In the order, the addresses entered for both user/receiver and warehouse/sender should be valid entries to process the shipping successfully. T

he address range from the source to the destination depends upon the type of Aramex service the admin availed.

3) A Non-Zero Weight of the Package

The product added to Aramex shipping should not have zero as the listed weight in Odoo. Otherwise, the shipment generation request returns an error from Aramex.

To avoid this, the admin can also choose a default weight to be automatically sent to AusPost in case the product’s listed weight is zero.

Configure the Margin on Rate, Additional Margin, Delivery Product, and Invoicing Policy according to your requirements.

In the Aramex Credentials section of the same delivery method, enter the required User Name, Password, Aramex Account Number, Account PIN, Account Entity, and Account Country Code.

These credentials connect the delivery method with the Aramex account. The module also provides a Test Environment for checking the connection before production use.
