| 198 | +Generate a label with Biteship |
| 199 | +------------------------------ |
| 200 | + |
| 201 | +When creating a quotation in Odoo, add the Biteship shipping method by clicking the :guilabel:`Add |
| 202 | +shipping` button. |
| 203 | + |
| 204 | +In the :guilabel:`Add a shipping method` box, select Biteship in the :guilabel:`Shipping Method` |
| 205 | +field. |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | +Calculate the shipping rate by clicking :guilabel:`Get rate`. Finally, click :guilabel:`Add` to |
| 208 | +add the cost of shipping to a sales order line, labeled as the *delivery product*. |
| 209 | + |
| 210 | +.. note:: |
| 211 | + Automatically calculate shipping costs for Biteship in **both** Odoo *Sales* and *eCommerce* |
| 212 | + applications. |
| 213 | + |
| 214 | +Then, :guilabel:`Validate` the delivery. Access shipping label documents from the :guilabel:`Print` |
| 215 | +menu under the :icon:`fa-cog` :guilabel:`(Actions)` icon next to the :guilabel:`Deliveries` |

| 218 | +.. image:: biteship_shipping/biteship-shipping.png |
| 219 | + :alt: Example of a shipped order in Odoo. |
| 220 | + |
| 221 | +Information such as :guilabel:`Tracking Number`, :guilabel:`Waybill Number`: and the cost of |
| 222 | +shipping are generated in the chatter. |
| 223 | + |
| 224 | +.. important:: |
| 225 | + Package weight in Odoo is calculated by adding the weights of the products plus the empty package |
| 226 | + saved in the database. Ensure the correct shipping option is selected, as the package weight is |
| 227 | + not automatically verified. |
| 228 | + |
| 229 | + Verify the destination address, as Biteship checks it when the order is created. |
| 230 | + |
| 231 | + Finally, the couriers require information, such as an email address, phone number and a post |
| 232 | + code. Please ensure that all necessary information is set and valid upon sending a shipping order |
| 233 | + and when retrieving the shipping rates. |
| 234 | + |
| 235 | +Cancellations |
| 236 | +------------- |
| 237 | + |
| 238 | +If a delivery order is cancelled in Odoo, it is automatically cancelled in Biteship. However, the |
| 239 | +cancellation varies between couriers and current status of delivery, so make sure to log onto the |
| 240 | +courier's platform to check and potentially handle the cancellation manually. |
