Hi,

I did create some modules to interact with carriers. Currently only DPD France is on OCA/delivery-carrier in v9.
Merging all the modules for v10 in OCA is on my 2019 wishlist.
The supported carriers we use in production for the moment :
- DPD France
- Laposte / Colissimo (France)
- Geodis / Calberson / France Express (France)
- Kuehne and Nagel (France)

(In the past we  - at Akretion - did integration with TNT and GLS).

Odoo modules prepare the data and give it to a python library (named roulier).
The specifics about each carrier is done the python library (call a SOAP-WS or JSON-WS, generate EDIFACT documents).


We support fetching logistic label from the carriers and tracking url, and some address validation (only for Geodis).
Fees calculation have not been requested by our clients and is not implemented yet.

Note: creation of carriers connectors is hard work. Carriers usually don't provide well documented API and test accounts.
There is usually regional difference: DPD France has not the same API than DPD Germany.

Hi Folks: 

Did a little research and found some pieces from Webkul, but no OCA things itself on said topic. 
Not that I would go with the Webkul stuff, but I was just not beliving that there is no OCA module about this yet. 

But maybe I have just not looked the right way?

So: Are there logistics connectors and can they bounce back fees and tracking ids depended on the particular pick, its destiny and maybe prints a waybill, too? 
Otherwise: Any interested guys to build towards?

Many thanks, Joe

P.S. Customs declarations is another area of interest.
