UPS Shipping Connector
UPS rates, labels, tracking, and returns — booked from Odoo Sales and eCommerce.
Overview
UPS Shipping Connector links Odoo's delivery, sales, and eCommerce modules to UPS, so your team books shipments, prints labels, and tracks parcels without ever leaving Odoo. The module covers domestic and international UPS services worldwide.
Built by TechUltra Solutions, the connector adds UPS as a delivery method on quotations, sales orders, and the website checkout. Live rates are fetched from UPS using the warehouse, company, and customer addresses, and a Cash on Delivery, Saturday Delivery, or Bill My Account option can be selected per shipment.
When the delivery order is validated, the module submits the shipment to UPS, retrieves the shipping label, stores the tracking number on the picking, and emails it to the customer. International shipments include customs invoices, and partial returns can be raised with return labels and partial invoicing.
Key features
-
UPS as an Odoo delivery method
Adds UPS as a delivery method on quotations, sales orders, and the eCommerce checkout, with rates, services, and shipment booking handled inside Odoo.
-
Test and production modes
Switch between UPS test and production environments from the shipping method configuration, so integrations can be validated before going live.
-
Recipient address verification
Run a “Check Recipient Address” call against UPS before booking the shipment to catch invalid or undeliverable addresses up front.
-
Backend sales-order configuration
Sales users pick UPS as the delivery method on a quotation or sales order and see the calculated UPS cost in the order total before confirming.
-
Frontend website checkout
Website shoppers select UPS during checkout. Real-time rates from UPS are returned for the cart contents so the price they see is the price you ship at.
-
Cash on Delivery, Saturday Delivery, Bill My Account
Per-shipment options for Cash on Delivery (COD) payment, Saturday Delivery, and billing charges back to a UPS account, all selectable from the delivery configuration.
-
Shipment confirmation
Validate the delivery order and the module submits the shipment to UPS, returning the booking confirmation and shipping documents.
-
International invoicing and customs
Generates the customs invoicing UPS requires for cross-border shipments, so international orders ship with the right documentation attached.
-
Return labels and partial invoices
Create UPS return shipping labels and partial-return invoices directly from the delivery order — useful for product returns and partial refunds.
-
Shipping labels stored on the picking
Labels are pulled from UPS and saved on the Odoo picking so warehouse staff can reprint them from the same record they used to pack the shipment.
-
Tracking numbers emailed automatically
Tracking numbers come back from UPS and are stored on the delivery order; the module then emails the tracking link to the customer automatically.
-
Live cost retrieval and update
Use the “Update shipping cost” action to refresh UPS rates on a quotation or order after a change — for example, when the cart, the address, or the service level is edited.
-
Shipment cancellation
Cancel a UPS shipment from Odoo so the booking is voided in UPS as well, keeping warehouse and carrier state in sync.
-
Website price calculator
Real-time UPS shipping cost calculation on the website lets customers see accurate delivery prices before they reach the checkout.

Setup & configuration
From install to first call — here is the path.

Configure the UPS delivery method
Open Inventory → Configuration → Shipping Methods, create or open the UPS method, and enter your UPS account credentials. Choose between test and production environments.
- 3
Complete warehouse, company, and customer addresses
Make sure the warehouse, company, and customer addresses include street, city, state, country, and postcode — UPS rate and label requests will fail without them.

Book and validate the delivery order
On the sales order, click “Update shipping cost” to refresh the UPS rate. Confirm the order, then validate the delivery order to submit the shipment to UPS, pull the label, and store the tracking number.

Email tracking and handle returns
The module emails the UPS tracking link to the customer automatically. For returns, raise a return from the delivery order to generate a UPS return label and, if needed, a partial invoice.

Which UPS services does the connector support?
