Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST /xmlrpc/2/object Generic endpoint for calling any Odoo model's methods (e.g., 'create', 'write', 'search_read') via XML-RPC. Used for foundational data manipulation and queries, especially for older versions or custom modules. Ideal for updating inventory or creating sales orders.
POST /jsonrpc Generic endpoint for calling any Odoo model's methods (e.g., 'create', 'write', 'search_read') via JSON-RPC. Often preferred for modern integrations due to JSON's ubiquity and ease of parsing. Used for similar purposes as XML-RPC but with a more modern payload.
GET, POST, PUT /api/v1/products REST-like endpoint for product management. Allows fetching, creating, or updating 'product.template' and 'product.product' records. Useful for synchronizing product master data from Odoo to Amazon or vice-versa.
GET, POST /api/v1/sales_orders REST-like endpoint for sales order management. Used for retrieving existing sales orders or creating new ones ('sale.order'). Crucial for pushing Amazon orders into Odoo.
GET, POST, PUT /api/v1/customers REST-like endpoint for customer management. Enables fetching, creating, or updating 'res.partner' records. Essential for maintaining consistent customer data from Amazon orders.
GET, POST /api/v1/invoices REST-like endpoint for invoice management. Facilitates retrieving existing invoices or creating new ones ('account.move'). Used for automated invoice generation based on Amazon sales and for reconciliation.

Transformation Logic

  • Order Status Mapping: Map Amazon 'OrderStatus' (e.g., 'Pending', 'Shipped', 'Canceled') to Odoo 'sale.order' states ('Draft', 'Sale', 'Done', 'Cancel').
  • Product Identifier Harmonization: Convert Amazon 'ASIN'/'FNSKU' to Odoo 'default_code' (SKU) for product lookups and vice-versa for updates.
  • Address Normalization: Standardize shipping addresses from Amazon to Odoo's 'res.partner' format, including country and state codes.
  • Financial Event Aggregation: Group multiple similar Amazon 'Financial Event' types (e.g., 'Principal', 'ShippingCharge') into single Odoo 'account.move.line' entries for simplified GL posting.
  • Quantity Calculation: Calculate Odoo's 'available-to-sell' quantity (total stock - reserved stock) before sending to Amazon 'QuantityAvailable'.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Product Not Found: Amazon order item SKU does not exist in Odoo.
  • Rate Limit Exceeded: Too many requests to Amazon SP-API lead to throttling.
  • Data Validation Failure: Missing mandatory field or incorrect data type when creating an Odoo 'sale.order'.
  • Duplicate Record: Attempting to create an Odoo 'sale.order' that already exists (handled via 'external_id').
  • Settlement Report Parsing Error: Unexpected format or new 'Financial Event' type in Amazon report.
  • Authentication Failure: Expired Amazon refresh token or incorrect Odoo API key.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about integration implementation, security, and best practices.

General FAQs

Why should I integrate Odoo ERP with Amazon Fulfillment?
Integrating Odoo ERP with Amazon Fulfillment eliminates manual data entry, prevents overselling through real-time inventory synchronization, automates order processing, streamlines financial reconciliation of Amazon settlement reports, and provides a unified view of your e-commerce and financial operations. It's crucial for scaling your Amazon business efficiently.

Workflow FAQs

How does the integration handle Amazon FBA orders in Odoo?
New Amazon FBA orders are automatically captured via Amazon SP-API Notifications. The iPaaS transforms this data into an Odoo Sales Order ('sale.order'), which then initiates inventory allocation and fulfillment processes within Odoo. Shipment tracking and status updates from Amazon FBA are then synchronized back to Odoo.

Inventory FAQs

Can I synchronize inventory levels between Odoo and Amazon FBA in real-time?
Yes, near real-time inventory synchronization is a core capability. Changes in Odoo's 'stock.quant' (due to sales, receipts, adjustments) trigger the iPaaS to update Amazon FBA via the SP-API Feeds, ensuring accurate stock availability on Amazon and preventing overselling.

Financials FAQs

How does the integration simplify Amazon Settlement Report reconciliation in Odoo?
The iPaaS automates the complex process of fetching, parsing, and transforming Amazon's detailed Settlement Reports. It maps individual 'Financial Events' (sales, fees, refunds) to the correct Odoo 'account.move.line' and 'account.payment' entries, automating journal entries and significantly reducing manual accounting effort for reconciliation.

Technology FAQs

What role does AI play in this Odoo and Amazon integration?
AI enhances the integration through intelligent data validation (e.g., matching invoices to POs, flagging fraudulent orders), anomaly detection in financial reports or inventory, automated data extraction, and predictive insights. AI-powered iPaaS can also assist with auto-mapping fields, inferring business rules, and suggesting optimal workflow configurations.

Fulfillment FAQs

Is Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) supported with Odoo?
Absolutely. The integration allows you to automate Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) orders. Sales orders from your Odoo eCommerce or other non-Amazon channels can be automatically sent to Amazon FBA via the SP-API Fulfillment Outbound API, leveraging Amazon's logistics for all your sales.

Technical FAQs

How are API rate limits handled for Amazon SP-API and Odoo?
Our iPaaS is designed with built-in intelligent throttling, exponential backoff for retries, and queuing mechanisms to gracefully manage Amazon SP-API's strict rate limits. For Odoo, it optimizes API calls (e.g., batching, efficient ORM methods) to ensure performance and prevent overloading, ensuring continuous data flow without interruptions.

Security FAQs

What are the security considerations for this integration?
Key security measures include using OAuth 2.0 for Amazon SP-API and dedicated API keys for Odoo with 'least privilege' access. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest. Credentials are stored securely in secret management systems, and comprehensive audit trails, IP whitelisting, and regular security audits are implemented to protect sensitive data.
