Overview

Odoo integration services from certified Odoo partners. We connect Odoo to your store, payment gateways, shipping, messaging and finance over Odoo's own API with scoped credentials. We reach for native Odoo and existing connectors first, and build custom only where they fall short.

Scope

What's included.

API integrations over Odoo's own endpoints, with scoped authentication and access rights
E-commerce and marketplace sync for orders, stock, customers and pricing
Payment gateways, including a custom payment provider where a region's is unsupported
Shipping and carrier connectors, with rates, labels or tracking written back to Odoo where the carrier supports them
Messaging and WhatsApp integration tied to Odoo events
CRM, productivity, accounting and reporting connections that cut duplicate entry and keep the agreed records in step
Scheduled batch jobs and file exchange where the other system offers no API
Error handling, logging, retries and reconciliation so syncs fail safe, not silent
A written mapping of which system owns each record, agreed before we build

Process

How it works.

  1. 01

    Agree the system of record

    We decide which system owns each record first, because that decision sets every conflict rule after it.

  2. 02

    Map the data and the process

    We document which records move, in which direction, how often, and how they are matched on stable identifiers rather than names.

  3. 03

    Choose native, connector or custom

    We check what Odoo already does, then what a connector does, then what extending one would take, before proposing a custom build.

  4. 04

    Build and authenticate

    We build to Odoo conventions in a module of our own, with scoped credentials rather than an administrator key.

  5. 05

    Test both directions

    We test real and edge-case syncs on a staging instance, covering outages, retries and repeated deliveries.

  6. 06

    Go live and monitor

    We switch on and reconcile the first live runs against the source system. Where the engagement includes monitoring, we configure alerts for stalled syncs as well as for errors.

Outcomes

What you walk away with.

One agreed source of truth, with no re-keying of data between systems

Orders, payments and stock that stay in step without anyone chasing them

Integrations that fail safe, surface problems early and are designed to remain upgrade-safe

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Which systems can you integrate with Odoo?

Most systems that expose an API: e-commerce and marketplaces, payment gateways, shipping carriers, CRM and productivity tools, reporting and BI, accounting and banking, and operational systems such as warehouse or production. Where a system offers no API, we use a scheduled file or batch exchange instead.

How does Odoo connect to other software?

Over its API, and the choice of endpoint now matters. Odoo 19 deprecated the older XML-RPC and JSON-RPC endpoints, with removal scheduled for Odoo 22, and introduced a newer JSON endpoint at /json/2 that authenticates with a bearer token. Odoo does not ship a general-purpose REST API, so anything described that way is a custom layer somebody has built. We build to the current endpoint with scoped credentials and proper access rights, and use webhooks for real-time updates where the other system offers them.

Should we use an existing connector or build a custom one?

Only move down this list when the step above genuinely does not solve it.

  • Native Odoo first. Odoo ships integrations for major payment providers, carriers, bank feeds, email and calendar. If one covers it, there is nothing extra to maintain.
  • Then an existing connector. An actively maintained connector can reduce custom code and maintenance, provided it supports the flow you need and your target Odoo version.
  • Then extend that connector. If it does most of the job, extending it in a small module of our own beats replacing it.
  • Custom last. We build from scratch when nothing exists, when what exists is unmaintained, or when your process is not the one it was written for.

Worth asking any supplier. Which of those four they proposed, and why they ruled out the ones above it.

Can you sync our online store with Odoo?

Yes, and the first decision is which system owns stock. We keep orders, stock, customers and pricing in step in the direction that suits your operation, with checks so a retried message updates the existing order instead of creating a second one. We have done this for several storefronts running against one shared multi-company Odoo inventory.

Do you have ready-made integration apps?

Yes. Alongside custom connectors we publish integration apps under the CODEerts publisher on the Odoo Apps Store, including WhatsApp, payment and data-sync connectors, part of our 124 live apps.

What happens if an integration fails?

How an integration behaves on a bad day is a design decision, so we make it explicitly rather than leave it to chance.

What we design for, where the systems involved allow it:

  • Transactional local writes. Work inside Odoo either completes or rolls back. A call the other system has already accepted cannot be undone with it, which is why the next two points matter.
  • Repeat-safe processing. Where the other system exposes a stable reference, we key on it so a replayed message updates the existing record rather than creating a second one. Where it does not, we agree a matching rule before we build.
  • Reconciliation. For the cases where one side succeeded and the other did not, we build a check that finds the gap and either resolves it or queues it for a person.
  • Retries and visible failures. Transient errors are retried. Anything unresolved is logged with the data that caused it and raised, not left in a file nobody reads.
  • Monitoring, where it is in scope. A sync that quietly stops is more dangerous than one that errors, so where monitoring is part of the engagement we alert on stalled runs too.

Who owns the integration after it goes live?

Ownership, support and monitoring are agreed before go-live. We can keep supporting the integration or hand it to your team, with the module and its documentation handled according to the agreed engagement terms. Either way it is built as its own Odoo module rather than as patched core files, which is what keeps a version upgrade a tested change rather than a rebuild.

How much does an Odoo integration cost?

It depends on the systems involved, which direction the data moves, how much mapping is needed, the authentication and reliability requirements, and how much ongoing operation and support you want. We map and scope before giving a firm quote, and the build can be priced separately from any ongoing support and monitoring. A firm price offered before anyone has mapped the data is either padded or about to move.
