QAD Connector
Integrate Odoo with QAD ERP (EE) via OpenEdge JDBC and RESTful APIs
This app connects Odoo to QAD ERP (Enterprise Edition). It requires installation and configuration both in Odoo and on your QAD side. The customization programs supplied in the module must be deployed to your QAD environment. Supported QAD ERP EE versions: 2013EE through 2022EE.
The app provides three main capabilities: fast sync of QAD data into Odoo via OpenEdge JDBC, a RESTful API to run QAD customizations (usable by Odoo and third-party systems), and sync of Odoo master data to QAD via that API. Currently, only the Part (Item Master) creation API is implemented; other QAD APIs can be added by following the included sample code or by contacting the author.
Python dependencies (required at install time)
This module depends on the following Python packages. You must install them in your Odoo environment before or when installing the app, or the module will not work correctly.
- jaydebeapi â JDBC bridge for connecting to the QAD OpenEdge database
- JPype1 â Java bridge used by jaydebeapi (requires a working Java runtime)
Example: pip install jaydebeapi JPype1. Ensure Java is installed and JAVA_HOME is set if needed.
1. Sync QAD data into Odoo via OpenEdge JDBC
Connect to your QAD OpenEdge database with JDBC and sync domain and master data into Odoo on a schedule or on demand.
JDBC connection
Data sync configuration (QAD domains)
2. RESTful API to run QAD customizations
Odoo exposes RESTful API endpoints that execute your QAD customization programs. Both Odoo and external systems (e.g. Postman, other apps) can call these APIs to trigger QAD logic.
Base API configuration (API key)
Odoo user API key
QAD server: path configuration
QAD server: QAD login
QAD server: SSH connection
QAD API endpoint configuration (1)
QAD API endpoint configuration (2)
Postman: API request
Postman: API test (2)
Postman: API response
3. Sync Odoo master data to QAD
Push Odoo master data (e.g. items) to QAD via the RESTful API. The included QAD customization receives the payload and loads it into QAD (e.g. Item Master).

QAD Item Master
QAD-side configuration
In addition to installing this app in Odoo, you must configure your QAD ERP (EE) environment and deploy the customization programs included in the module (in the qad_customizations folder).
1. QAD SQL server service
2. OpenEdge SQL user
3. SQLEXP: grant table access to user
4. QAD customization program list
Deploy the programs from the qad_customizations folder (in this app) to your QAD environment.
5. QAD generalized codes
6. QAD interface file directory and CIMLOAD logs
Important notes
- QAD version: This integration targets QAD ERP Enterprise Edition (EE) from 2013EE to 2022EE.
- QAD APIs: Only the Part (Item Master) creation API is implemented. For other QAD entities or operations, you can develop customizations using the sample programs in
qad_customizationsas reference, or contact the author for support (gaoyancd@outlook.com). - Dual setup: The module must be installed in Odoo and the QAD customization programs must be deployed and configured on your QAD server; both sides are required for full functionality.
