Integrate Odoo with your other software
Information typed twice ends up differing. Connecting Odoo to your other software, and to your customers’ and suppliers’, moves the data without retyping.
What it covers
Data exchange interfaces (APIs), one way or both ways
EDI with your customers and suppliers: orders, delivery notes, invoices
Regular synchronisation with a project management or time tracking tool, an online shop or business software
File imports and exports, one-off or scheduled
How I go about it
-
Map
Which software is the reference for each piece of data, which way it flows, and how often.
-
Define the interface
The channel (API, EDI or files), the fields, the mappings and the error cases, decided before the code.
-
Build the connector
With its tests, and a clean restart after an error or an outage.
-
Make errors visible
Data that does not get through shows in Odoo instead of getting lost.
What you receive
- The connector, as an Odoo module, in your repository
- The description of the interface: data, direction, frequency
- Its automated tests
Frequently asked questions
Which software can be connected to Odoo?
Any software that offers an API or can import and export files: project management tool, online shop, business software, bank. And, through EDI, those of your customers and suppliers.
What if the other software is unavailable?
The synchronisation resumes when it comes back, and what did not get through stays visible in Odoo instead of getting lost.
Is a development needed every time?
Not always: an OCA module sometimes already provides the interface. That gets checked before anything is written.
Software to connect to Odoo?
Describe it in a few lines: I will get back to you as soon as possible.
