Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
I'm trying to find out if clients can use Odoo to login and create orders?
This is for a 3PL company and their clients. Clients ship products to a warehouse for storage.
When clients want inventory shipped, they come to Odoo, create and pay for the order online, the 3PL company receives the order also in Odoo and then ships it.
Is this possible using either the Inventory & Purchasing Orders Apps? Create login details for the client, they login, and can create orders?
I'm afraid you will have to dig a little bit deeper in order to model your use case properly. This should give you some hints and a start: https://www.odoo.com/apps/modules/9.0/sale_owner_stock_sourcing/
Obviously a customer should not order a product he already owns, but he could trigger a shipment/delivery.
You can set user group
Currently in Odoo there is only two user groups for purchase and inventory.(user and manager)
if you set your customer as user, still they will be able to see and edit documents of other customers also.

1. Use the live chat to ask your questions.
2. The operator answers within a few minutes.
So is there a way I can set it so they can't see the other customers documents?
I'm sorry but that can't be right.
Odoo is so powerful, with so many features, are you telling me there is No way for admins to restrict content to each user?
And then that customer can just login and make his orders online? And then the warehouse just sends them out?
Surely there is some easy way.
Using groups and ACLs you can define user access rights as fine grained as you like if you understand Odoo's structure and data model. But Odoo is a generic ERP with some extensions for particular verticals, many of them created also by the community. Odoo is not an out of the box specialised industry solution for the 3pl vertical. Therefore please define your use cases and work flows precisely and then study the features and artefacts Odoo provides and adapt them in order to achieve your goals. If you then have specific questions, come back to the forum and post them.
It is for example absolutely not clear what an order means in your context. Should the clients of your 3PL order shipments or goods or both? Who is the owner of the goods etc.?
Hi Ermin, the client is the owner of the goods, which are stored in the warehouse. The Clients need to be able to login to Odoo and create the orders. The 'order' just tells the warehouse what products need to be shipped, how many, and where to. The warehouse receives the order, also presumably inside Odoo in an Administrator account, and then can execute the order physically in the warehouse.
Is that clearer? Thanks
