Overview
When an order goes to the shipping department for final delivery, Odoo is set up by default to utilize a one-step operation: once all goods are available, they are able to be shipped in a single delivery order. However, your company's business process may have one or more steps that happen before shipping. In the two steps process, the items in a delivery order are picked in the warehouse and brought to an output location for shipping. The goods are then shipped.
In order to accomplish a Pick + Ship delivery in Odoo, there are a few
necessary configuration steps. These steps create an additional
location, which by default is called Output. So, if your warehouse's
code is WH, this configuration will create a location called
WH/Output. Goods will move from WH/Stock to WH/Output in the first
step (picking). Then, they move from WH/Output to WH/Customers (in the
case of sales orders) in the second step (shipping).

Конфигурация
Allow management of routes
Odoo configures movement of delivery orders via the routes. Routes provide a mechanism to chain different actions together. In this case, we will chain the picking step to the shipping step.
To allow management of routes, go to .
Ensure that the radio button Advanced routing of products using rules is checked.
Click on Apply at the top of the page to save changes (if you needed to check the radio button above).
Примечание
If you checked option Advanced routing of products using rules you may need to activate Manage several locations per warehouse if it wasn't activated beforehand.
Configure warehouse for Pick + Ship
To configure a Pick + Ship move, go to and edit the warehouse that will be used.
For outgoing shippings, set the option to Bring goods to output location before shipping (Pick + Ship)
Create a Sales Order
Install the Sale if it is not the case, and create a sales order with some products to deliver.
Notice that we now see 2 transfers associated with this sales order
in the Delivery stat button above the sales order.
If you click on the 2 Transfers stat button, you should now see two different pickings, one with a reference PICK to designate the picking process and another with a reference OUT to designate the shipping process.
