Lockdowel Automates Its Warehouse With Odoo. Clean Data, Reliable Shipping.
/ The engagement
An Odoo Build for Fastener Warehouse Operations.
Lockdowel builds metal and plastic fasteners that make assembly easier, with patented technology that streamlines manufacturing, assembly, and installation. As a Certified Odoo partner, Brainvire automated order and delivery processing by mapping customer location, cleaned up duplicate data, reconfigured package weight with EasyPost, and automated new customer signups with approval for operational excellence.
/ About the client
Lockdowel builds fasteners in metal and plastic that are designed to make assembly processes easier. The company's patented technology and product portfolio streamline manufacturing, assembly, and installation, and the client set out to adopt Odoo's out-of-the-box operations to strengthen its foundation and reach operational excellence.
The client had been looking for a certified Odoo partner to resolve hiccups in consultation and training. To deliver Odoo's enhanced facilities, Brainvire automated order and delivery processing by mapping customer location and automated new customer signups with approval, cleaning up the data that had held the system back.
/ The approach
Design, architecture, and features, shipped as one program.
Cleansed of duplicates
Duplicate companies and contacts caused trouble, so the team helped the user find and combine identical records with Odoo's data cleansing tools.
Reconfigured dimensionally
Custom box weight was misconfigured, so the team removed the customization and reconfigured product weight with a dimensional weight strategy for consistent FedEx data.
Set with EasyPost
Odoo FedEx combined many line items into one package weight, so the team set the EasyPost plugin as the default and validated it across several usage examples for accuracy.
Standardized for delivery
A kit type configuration shipped the wrong product, so the team switched packaging from a production kit to a conventional one, keeping a single unit of measure for buying and selling.
/ What stood in the way
Four problems, solved without a maintenance window.
Select a challenge to see how it shaped the build.
Duplicate data
The customer faced trouble from duplicate data in the system, with a significant number of identical companies and contacts added. The Brainvire team helped the user find and combine the information.
Fetching mismatched data
Custom box weight was misconfigured, so the client received inconsistent FedEx data. The team found the best approach, removing the customization and reconfiguring product weight with a dimensional weight strategy.
Wrongful package weighing
The client wished to send one unit as one box using FedEx, but Odoo FedEx combined many line items into a single package. The team set the EasyPost plugin as the system default and validated it across several usage examples for accuracy.
Imbalanced delivery
A kit type configuration caused the customer to sell a different product than requested. The team switched the packaging from a production kit to a conventional one, keeping a single unit of measure so goods can be bought and sold with a clear profit and delivery success rate.
