FTP & SFTP EDI Connector

Odoo FTP/SFTP
EDI Integration

Automate electronic document exchanges seamlessly between Odoo and your external trading partners. Configure secure FTP/SFTP server integrations, dynamically map XML or JSON fields, and set up bi-directional automated processing.

FTP & SFTP Protocol

Integrates directly with remote standard FTP or secure SFTP servers. Verify connections instantly inside Odoo settings.

XML & JSON File Formats

Full parsing support for XML structures and JSON schemas, ensuring compliance with any modern supply chain partner.

Dynamic Field Mappings

Configure customized data field mappings between XML elements / JSON keys and Odoo database fields without writing code.

Module Overview

The Odoo FTP/SFTP EDI Integration Module is a robust middleware connector developed to establish systematic, secure, and automated document synchronization. Whether importing customer sales orders from external systems or exporting product catalogues and delivery details back to trading partners, this module does it all without manual intervention.

Featuring a detailed EDI Mapping Engine, the module allows companies to structure mapping tables dynamically for both parent tables and sub-tables (e.g. mapping order details alongside order lines). By enabling scheduler configurations (crons), data transfers are handled in the background, minimizing data discrepancies, eliminating manual import mistakes, and optimizing operational workflows.

Automatic Shipping & Confirmation: Auto-confirm orders and calculate shipping charges.
Master Record Auto-Creation: Auto-create partners/products if not found during import.
Designated Error Notification: Auto-assign Odoo Activities to specific users on transaction failures.
Log Auto-Cleanup Policy: Prevent database bloat with automatic log retention parameters.

Hot Features

Explore the advanced utilities configured within our EDI connector

Flexible Protocol Setup

Supports FTP & SFTP connections with credentials storage, custom port selection, and target remote path definitions.

Remote Directory Sync

Sync folder structures from external servers. Map individual folders to specific upload or download directions.

Sub-Model Mapping

Map hierarchical structures (e.g. Sales Orders and Order Lines) concurrently, keeping parent-child data intact.

Transaction Log Cockpit

Tracks execution status (Draft, In Progress, Done, Failed) and archives imported/exported file data for full auditing.

Failed State Re-computation

Failed exchanges can be fixed (data or mappings adjusted) and re-triggered manually using the Re-compute action.

Automation & Validation

Auto-confirmations, shipping charge application, mandatory fields check, and auto-creations for missing products.



Workflow & Setup Process

A simple step-by-step process to get started with the EDI integration

1

FTP/SFTP Server Connection Configuration

Navigate to EDI Integration -> Configuration -> FTP/SFTP Configuration. Create a connection configuration, specify the protocol (FTP or SFTP), address, port, and security credentials. Click the Test Connection button to verify connection status.

Step 1 - FTP/SFTP Server Credentials & Test Connection
2

Synchronize Directories & Assign Operation Types

Click the Sync Directories button. Odoo connects to the server and retrieves all folders. In the Directories tab, define directories for files to download (Incoming) and upload (Outgoing). You can also configure specific rules like Daily New File check.

Step 2 - Synced Directories Listing & Direction Settings
3

EDI Configuration - General Setup

In the General Setup tab, define the Odoo Model configuration by selecting the primary model and its sub-model (for nested line items). Specify operation details, including the operation type (Incoming or Outgoing), file format (XML or JSON), file type, and custom XML header options.

Step 2 - Synced Directories Listing & Direction Settings
4

EDI Configuration - Connection & Directory

In the Connection & Directory tab, link your EDI configuration to a registered FTP/SFTP server. Define target directory sync paths specify the Import Directory for Incoming files or the Export Directory for Outgoing files to organize file locations on the remote server.

Step 2 - Synced Directories Listing & Direction Settings
5

EDI Configuration - Advanced Options

In the Advanced Options tab, set up workflow automations. For Incoming operations, enable options like Auto Apply Shipping, Auto Confirm Order, and Create record if not found. For Outgoing operations, specify the trading partner and export search domain. Designate specific users for error activity notifications.

Step 2 - Synced Directories Listing & Direction Settings
6

EDI Configuration - Field Mappings (XML or JSON)

Establish field mapping rules. Define links between XML nodes or JSON elements and Odoo database fields. Specify sub-table relation settings, address indicators, validation rules like required fields, and maximum character length constraints.

Step 2 - Synced Directories Listing & Direction Settings
7

EDI Configuration - Sync Outgoing

Click the Sync Outgoing button in the form header to manually trigger the export process. Odoo will fetch the relevant records according to your model and search domain settings, construct the XML or JSON document matching your field mapping definitions, and upload it directly to the designated export directory on the remote FTP/SFTP server.

Step 2 - Synced Directories Listing & Direction Settings
8

EDI Transactions

Monitor the history of all files exchanged with trading partners under the EDI Transactions menu. Track execution states (Draft, In Progress, Done, Failed), review processed document details, and retrieve the exact XML or JSON payload transmitted. If a transaction fails, correct the data and click the Re-compute action to retry the synchronization.

Step 8 - EDI Transactions
Step 8 - EDI Transactions

EDI Logs

Access the audit trail under the EDI Logs view. This provides a clean list of success and failure notifications, detailing exact exceptions, file names, connection events, and timestamps, ensuring administrators have complete visibility to troubleshoot any transaction issues.

Step 9 - EDI Logs
10

Export Records Wizard

Manually push specific data to the external system using the Export Records wizard. Select the corresponding EDI integration, and select the records to send either by inputting specific Database IDs (e.g. 1, 2, 5) or selecting Products from the relation list.

Step 10 - Export Records Wizard

Manage database size and cleaning policies under the Log Configuration page. Enable the auto-delete logs feature and specify a retention period (in days) to automatically purge older transaction logs, keeping your Odoo instance optimized and preventing unnecessary data growth.

Step 11 - Log Configuration Settings

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers regarding setup, configurations, and features

Which protocols are supported for the remote server connection?
This module supports both standard FTP (File Transfer Protocol) and secure SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) connections using custom server hosts, ports, usernames, and passwords.
Can we map sub-tables like Sales Order Lines or Invoice Lines?
Yes, the mapping model supports sub-models (One2many relations). You can establish field mappings for both the main model (such as Sales Order) and the sub-model (such as Sale Order Lines) under a single EDI integration configuration.
How does the module handle missing master data during import?
You can enable the Create record if any value not found? option. If a product or partner name in the imported file does not match Odoo's master records, Odoo will automatically create them on the fly.
What happens if a transaction fails?
The transaction status switches to Failed, and detailed error messages are recorded under the transaction's logs. If configured, Odoo automatically schedules a Next Activity and assigns it to a designated user for immediate resolution. After correcting the issue, click Re-compute to retry.
Is this app compatible with Odoo Online?
No. Since Odoo Online does not support third-party apps, this module requires Odoo.sh, private cloud, or on-premise installations.
Do I get support after purchasing?
Yes. We provide 60 days of free support for bug fixes and deployment queries. Contact us at support@creyox.com for assistance.
