🌟 Billing Ship

The Billing Ship module for Dolibarr is an advanced solution that enables automatic invoicing of shipments (deliveries) in a simple, reliable, and fully integrated way within the Dolibarr sales workflow. It is designed for companies that deliver orders partially or fully and need to invoice based on the quantities actually shipped, rather than the full initial order.

How the module works

The core logic of the module is straightforward:
👉 A validated shipment becomes an invoiceable shipment.

Once enabled, Billing Ship introduces a shipment-based invoicing process without disrupting Dolibarr’s standard features.

1️⃣ Module configuration

The module provides a comprehensive configuration interface allowing you to:

• Enable automatic invoicing of shipments

• Choose the invoice generation mode:

  • ✔ One invoice per shipment

  • ✔ One invoice per customer (shipment grouping)

• Automatically add services linked to the original order

• Automatically validate generated invoices

• Automatically close shipments once invoiced

• Select the PDF template used for invoices

• Merge all generated invoices into a single global PDF

• Display advanced information in the invoice title (customer name, actual shipment date, etc.)

This flexibility allows Billing Ship to adapt to both small businesses and complex logistics organizations.

2️⃣ List of shipments ready for invoicing

Billing Ship adds a dedicated screen called “Shipments ready for invoicing”, where users can:

• View all validated shipments

• Filter by customer, order, date, or status

• See the HT (net) amount calculated per shipment

• Select one or multiple shipments

• Generate invoices with a single click using “Generate invoices”

👉 The system applies the configured rules automatically (single invoice, grouped invoices, per customer, etc.).

3️⃣ Automatic invoice generation

During invoice generation:

• A customer invoice is created automatically

• The invoice is linked to the shipment

• Invoice lines exactly match the quantities actually shipped

• Net, VAT, and gross amounts are calculated automatically

• The invoice is validated automatically if enabled

PDF documents are generated and archived directly in Dolibarr.

4️⃣ Smart object linking and traceability

Billing Ship ensures full traceability between:

• ✔ Customer order

• ✔ Shipment

• ✔ Customer invoice

Each record (order, shipment, invoice) clearly displays its linked objects, providing a transparent sales cycle and simplifying accounting and audit processes.

5️⃣ Typical use cases

The module is particularly suitable for:

• Companies handling partial deliveries

• Logistics and distribution businesses

• Industrial and construction companies

• Organizations that invoice based on delivered quantities

• Teams seeking to reduce manual invoicing errors

✅ Key benefits of Billing Ship

• Significant time savings in invoicing

• Reduced manual errors

• Invoicing aligned with actual deliveries

• Fully automated process

• Improved commercial and accounting traceability

• Seamless native integration with Dolibarr
