TikTok Shop Update Order Status From Odoo

  • This feature allows you to export order fulfillment status with shipment information from Odoo to TikTok Shop. This can be done manually or automatically using the scheduler.

  • TikTok Shop ships packages, not Odoo deliveries. Once a delivery is validated, the connector reports each of its packages to TikTok Shop the way the package and the market require.

Note

Orders fulfilled by TikTok Shop are never reported from Odoo, because TikTok Shop ships them itself. A digital order is delivered to the buyer directly, so there is nothing to report either.

Before You Start

A parcel you ship yourself is reported with its tracking reference and its carrier’s TikTok Shipping Provider Code. Set the code once on each Odoo delivery method you use, under Inventory ‣ Configuration ‣ Delivery ‣ Delivery Methods, because nothing else in the setup asks for it.

Method - 1: Manual Update Order Status

For Multiple Orders

  1. Go to the Marketplaces ‣ Overview menu in Odoo.

  2. Click on the Operations button from the instance record.

    Operation View
  3. Select Export Operation and then select Export Tracking Details option.

    Export Tracking Details Operation
  4. Press PROCESS button.

Every validated TikTok Shop delivery with something left to report is sent, except one flagged with an error. Fix the cause, then click Retry on that delivery.

For Single Orders

  1. Open the delivery order of the TikTok Shop order. When you ship the parcel yourself, set the Carrier and the Tracking Reference first: the Carrier cannot be changed once the delivery is validated.

  2. Validate the delivery.

  3. Click the Update in Marketplace button.

    Update In Marketplace

Method - 2: Automatic Update Order Status

  1. Go to your TikTok Shop instance setting by navigating to Marketplaces ‣ Configuration ‣ Instance.

  2. On the Automatic Jobs tab, configure the Export Order Status/Tracking Information job by setting Interval Number, Interval Unit, and then Active.

    Order Status Automatic Export

This scheduled action is created inactive and runs every 25 minutes by default. See Automatic Jobs.

TikTok Packages

The packages of a delivery are shown on its TikTok Shop tab, with their Package ID, Package Status, Shipping Type, Tracking Number and the date they were Shipped On.

TikTok Shop Packages
  • One package can hold several orders, and one order can be spread over several packages. A delivery whose package also holds another order that is not yet validated shows a blue banner naming that order. The scheduled export and the operation pass it over until that delivery is validated too; Update in Marketplace flags it instead.

  • A package that a later split or combine replaced is left out of everything that is sent.

How A Parcel Is Shipped

How a parcel is reported follows what TikTok Shop says for the parcel and the market:

Route

When it applies

You ship it yourself

The parcel ships on your own carrier. The tracking number and the carrier’s provider code are reported to TikTok Shop.

Label from TikTok Shop

Markets where the label is bought from TikTok Shop. The label is created with the parcel’s weight and size, and can then be downloaded.

TikTok Shop ships it

The parcel is handed over the way TikTok Shop says: dropped off or collected. For a collection, a collection window is booked: the one you set on the delivery, otherwise the one already on the parcel, otherwise the first one TikTok Shop offers.

Where the parcel’s shipping type and the delivery option it ships under disagree about who ships it, the parcel is read once more; if they still disagree the delivery is flagged, naming the order and the parcel, rather than shipped the wrong way.

Collection Window

Where the parcel is collected, the delivery’s TikTok Shop tab offers Collection From and Collection Until. Leave them empty to take the window already set on the parcel or, failing that, the first window TikTok Shop offers. You can also set your own before reporting the shipment. The two fields are shown only when a parcel of that delivery is actually collected.

Collection Window

Shipping Part Of An Order

When a delivery carries only part of what TikTok Shop grouped together, the parcels leaving whole are shipped whole, and where TikTok Shop allows it the order is split so the rest can follow later.

Warning

Some markets ship every unit of a product together. Validating a delivery that would leave part of such a product behind asks you to confirm first, because TikTok Shop could not be told about it afterwards.

Download A Shipping Label

  1. Open the delivery order of the TikTok Shop order.

  2. Click TikTok Shipping Document.

  3. Choose the Document and, where it is offered, the Paper Size and Format. Press Download.

    Download TikTok Shop Shipping Document

The document is attached to the delivery, and the tracking number that comes with it is written onto the delivery when it has none.

Important

Only a shipment TikTok Shop arranged has a label to fetch. A parcel you ship yourself is yours to print. The document exists only between the shipment being arranged and the carrier collecting it.
