Overview

This module provides a multi-step wizard for migrating RFID access control data from older Odoo instances into Odoo 19. It connects to the source Odoo via XML-RPC API, reads configuration and historical data, and recreates it in the target database.

Features

• XML-RPC connection — works with any Odoo instance (local or remote, v14—v18)
• Dynamic schema discovery — automatically detects source fields via fields_get()
• Multi-company support — select which company to import
• Phased import with savepoint isolation per phase:
  • Phase 1+3: Hardware (webstacks, controllers, doors, readers, zones, time schedules)
  • Phase 2: People (employees, partners, departments, categories)
  • Phase 4: Access (access groups, relations, cards → automatic card-door regeneration)
  • Phase 5: Events (user events, system events, temperature/humidity logs)
  • Phase 6a: Vending (rows, events, balance history, auto-refill)
  • Phase 6b: Attendance (hr.attendance, hr.attendance.extra)
  • Phase 6c: Services (rfid.service, rfid.service.sale, tags)
• Deduplication via ir.model.data with __import__ prefix
• Hardware command suppression — no commands sent to controllers during import
• Conflict detection — warns about duplicate cards, employees, etc.
• Direct SQL batch insert for large datasets (events, attendance, balance history)
• Progress tracking with real-time status updates

Configuration

No special configuration is needed. The module adds a menu entry under RFID → Import → Import from Odoo.

Usage

1. Go to RFID → Import → Import from Odoo
2. Enter the source Odoo connection details (URL, database, login, password)
3. Click Check Connection to verify connectivity
4. Select the source company to import
5. Choose which optional data to include (events, vending, attendance, services)
6. Click Start Import and monitor progress
7. Review the import log for results and any warnings

Requirements

• The source Odoo instance must be running and accessible via HTTP/HTTPS
• The source user must have admin-level access to read all RFID data
• Target database must have hr_rfid installed
• For vending/attendance/service import, the corresponding modules must be installed in the target
