Steersman Odoo Features

Email loops

Eliminating Email Loops in Odoo With Smarter Address Handling for Automated Replies

In real-world scenarios, many third-party services (such as AP automation platforms) process emails and send responses from a different address than the one originally contacted. While this may seem harmless, it can create serious issues inside Odoo. Steersman has developed a new enhancement to intelligently handle these scenarios—preventing email loops, reducing noise, and improving communication accuracy.

Smarter shipping rates

Smarter Shipping Rate Requests in Odoo by Reducing Costs and Improving Performance with EasyPost

Steersman's EasyPost integration is a critical part of many Odoo workflows—but when not optimized, they can introduce unnecessary costs and inefficiencies. Steersman has developed a new enhancement to improve how Odoo interacts with EasyPost, giving businesses greater control over when shipping rates are requested and significantly reducing the number of API calls.

Google tag manager

How to Set Up GA4 Events in Google Tag Manager

Tracking user behavior and ecommerce interactions accurately is essential for making data-driven decisions. If your website already sends event data to the data layer, the next step is configuring Google Tag Manager (GTM) to forward that data into Google Analytics 4 (GA4). This guide walks you through setting up ecommerce, custom, search, and login events in GTM.

Shared inbox

Shared Inbox: A Smarter Way to Manage Incoming Emails in Odoo

Managing incoming emails in Odoo has always depended heavily on proper routing, something that isn’t always guaranteed. When replies lose their metadata or emails arrive without clear context, they can fall through the cracks, leading to missed communication and delayed responses. While Odoo routes emails to records like Sales Orders, Invoices, and CRM Leads, there has traditionally been no centralized way to monitor all incoming communication across the system. The New Shared Inbox module solves these problems by providing a centralized, actionable view of all incoming emails in Odoo, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.

Product-level disclaimers

Product-Level Disclaimers in Odoo

Steersman’s new "Product-Level Disclaimers" feature gives you precise control over when legal or regulatory language appears on customer-facing documents — only showing it when relevant products are on a quote, order, or invoice.

Sale prices calcualted

View Exactly How Your Sales Prices Are Calculated, Directly From The Sale Order in Odoo

Steersman has developed a new enhancement that brings full transparency into Odoo’s pricing engine—giving sales users clear insight into exactly how each price is calculated, directly from the Sales Order.

Sales calendar ship date

Sort the Sales Calendar by Expected Ship Date in Odoo

Steersman has introduced a new feature: "Sort the Sales Calendar by Expected Ship Date". This enhancement lets your team switch the calendar from using “Order Date” to using Expected Ship Date, giving warehouse, logistics, and customer service teams a true picture of what is shipping each day.

Ready ship flag

Make Only Ready to Ship Orders Visible for Picking in Odoo

When ecommerce orders come in, they often need to be reviewed before the warehouse starts processing them - especially if stock needs to ship from a different location or vendor. With this feature, your team can easily control which orders are visible to warehouse staff and ready to be picked.

Smarter email notifications

Email Monitoring Profiles: Smarter Email Notifications in Odoo

With this enhancement, users can now receive push notifications (via email or inbox) whenever an incoming email is received on a record that has chatter enabled — even if they’re not a follower of that record. Our "Email Monitoring Profiles" feature also includes model-based routing, allowing each user to choose which Odoo models they want to monitor.

Archive inactive contacts

Archive All Inactive Contacts at Once in Odoo

To help businesses keep their databases clean and efficient, Steersman has developed a new feature that automatically identifies and archives inactive contacts.

Prevent on sales order transfers

Prevent Adding Unwanted Products or Over-Delivering Quantities on Sales Order Transfers in Odoo

A toggleable setting that prevents warehouse users from adding products or shipping quantities on a delivery that were not in the original Sales Order. It builds on our existing “Prevent Negative Quantities” logic and closes a gap that allows accidental additions to picks/deliveries that break traceability, inventory counts, and customer invoicing.

Avs cvv flags

Flexible Control Over AVS and CVV Validations in Odoo

Steersman has developed a feature in Odoo that gives businesses in-depth control over AVS and CVV requirements. With this functionality, authorized users can selectively disable these checks when processing payments, without changing global CardPointe settings.

Defualt email

Set Default Email Templates per Model in Odoo

This Steersman enhancement lets you assign different default email templates for each model (Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Invoices, etc.), so the right template is always pre-selected in the "Compose Message" wizard based on the record you’re working with.

Bulk vendor discounts

Bulk Vendor Bill Discounts & Streamlined Payments

Steersman has added a new enhancement to Odoo’s vendor payment process, enabling you to apply a single discount percentage across multiple vendor bills and allocate them to a designated account —no more manual edits on each bill.

Website net terms

Learn how to configure and enable Website Net Terms as a payment method in Odoo using Steersman's tools. Step-by-step guide for setup and usage.

Metabase

Integrate Odoo with Metabase

Steersman now offers integration between your Odoo system and Metabase, an open-source business intelligence platform that turns your data into interactive dashboards, charts, and reports. This gives you and your team real-time visibility into key metrics across sales, inventory, operations, accounting, and more — all using the data already stored in your Odoo database.

Product aliases

Customer Product Aliases in Odoo

Many companies sell products to customers who use their own product codes or descriptions especially in wholesale, distribution, and manufacturing. Until now, Odoo's standard functionality only supported vendor specific product aliases on purchase orders. Steersman has extended this capability with the new "Customer Product Aliases" feature, which allows product allies for customers on sales orders as well.

Replenishment dashboard

Add Brand, MPN, and Active Vendor Columns to the Replenishment Screen In Odoo

We’ve enhanced the Replenishment dashboard in Odoo to include additional fields that give buyers more context when reviewing stock levels and triggering purchases. This update helps streamline purchasing decisions by making vendor and product details more visible without requiring users to click into each product.

Procurement Group

Show Procurement Group on Receipts and Transfers In Odoo

We’ve added a feature to help warehouse teams easily identify whether incoming inventory is being received for a Sales Order or as general stock. This is done by making the Procurement Group visible on transfers, both in the Odoo interface and on printed labels. This helps receiving teams know how to sort, label, and stage items based on where they’re headed next.

Carrier billing inherit

Carrier Billing on Sub-Contacts Inherits from Parent in Odoo

We’ve added support for a new option in the "Carrier Billing" field on contacts: "Inherit from Parent". This feature helps prevent mismatches in shipping account and billing type logic between parent accounts and their sub-contacts. Now, when entering orders for sub-contacts, users can rely on consistent carrier billing behavior — even if the sub-contact has no billing details set.

Expired Quotations

Auto Cancel Expired Quotations in Odoo

We’ve added a new feature to automatically cancel expired sales quotations each night. If a quote is no longer valid, it won’t clutter your pipeline or mislead your sales team; it will disappear.

Editing contacts

Warn (or Block) Users from Editing Contacts Used in Odoo Orders

We’ve added a new feature that protects your order history from accidental changes. Now, if a user tries to edit a contact that has been used on sales orders, deliveries, invoices, or payments, Odoo will alert them or block the edit entirely, depending on their permissions.

Prevent duplicate PO

Prevent Duplicate Customer PO on Sales Orders in Odoo

We’ve added a new feature to help prevent sales teams from accidentally duplicating a customer’s purchase order, a critical need for many of our clients who rely on customer issued PO references to manage order approvals and payment processing. This feature introduces automatic checks and interactive warnings when users attempt to reuse the same Customer Reference (PO number) for the same commercial partner.

Automatically print

Automatically Print Product Allocation Labels on Receipts and Transfers in Odoo

When validating an internal transfer or vendor receipt, Odoo can now generate ZPL labels that show where each group of items is going next — including any sales orders they're destined for. Each label is printed based on the pickings the received items are allocated to (i.e., where they’ll be moved next). Labels are printed via PrintNode to a dedicated Zebra printer called the Inventory Allocation Label Printer.

UCC-128 Shipping Labels

Automatically Print UCC-128 Shipping Labels on Delivery Validation in Odoo

We’ve added support for automatically generating and printing UCC-128 shipping container labels when deliveries are validated in Odoo. This feature is useful for customers who require UCC-128 labels for every shipment.

Return labels receipts

Generate EasyPost Return Labels on Customer Receipts in Odoo

We've added a new feature that allows you to generate return shipping labels. This helps streamline customer returns for damaged or incorrect items, without needing to manually create shipping labels outside the system.

Generate SSCC-18

Automatically generate SSCC-18 numbers for packages in delivery orders in Odoo

This feature allows companies to automatically generate and assign unique SSCC-18 numbers to packages on delivery orders (pickings) where the destination is a customer. This automation removes the need for manual entry and ensures compliance with GS1 standards for shipping container codes, which are often required for EDI transactions.

Edi product matching

Manual Product Matching for EDI Order Processing

Steersman's manual product association feature enables customer service teams to efficiently resolve EDI discrepancies by associating incoming product codes with correct inventory items. Product identifier mismatches typically create costly processing delays and operational inefficiencies that undermine automation investments. Our solution enables businesses to maintain data integrity while eliminating order processing bottlenecks, without requiring extensive technical resources or mapping projects.

Negative inventory quantities

Prevent Negative Inventory Quantities

Steersman protects your financial accuracy by preventing negative inventory balances, eliminating costly accounting corrections while maintaining operational efficiency through inventory safeguards for both inventory transfers and component consumption during manufacturing

Lot consumption report

Track lot consumption across manufacturing process in Odoo

Many manufacturing businesses need detailed visibility into where and how product lots are consumed. That’s why we’ve developed the Product Lot Consumption Report. A new feature in Odoo that gives you precise tracking of lot consumption across your manufacturing process.

Warning 0cost

Pop-up warning when PO line created with $0 cost in Odoo

To help prevent one of the most common and costly mistakes, accidentally confirming purchase orders (POs) with $0 cost lines, Steersman has developed a new Odoo customization: the $0 PO Line Warning pop-up.

Breadcrumbs

Breadcrumb Navigation for Website Pages

Odoo’s built-in website pages are flexible, but without breadcrumbs, users can easily lose track of where they are in a multi-page layout. That’s why Steersman developed a new feature to support SEO and user-friendly breadcrumbs on custom website pages. This enhancement introduces a straightforward method for defining page hierarchy.

Chat side panel

Display Relevant Customer Info In Odoo Live Chat Side Panel

This new Steersman-designed panel helps sales and support teams respond faster and smarter, without switching tabs or digging through unrelated records.

Dropship email notifications

Dropship Delivery Notification Emails for Customers

Steersman has introduced a new feature that allows Odoo to automatically send a delivery confirmation email to the customer (not the vendor) when a dropship order is fulfilled. This email includes a correctly formatted delivery slip that shows customer information, not vendor details.
