Be sure to provide the Store URL, Consumer Key, and Consumer Secret information when setting up the connection, as these fields are essential for establishing a successful integration.

To find your Store URL, navigate to the WooCommerce settings in your WordPress dashboard. You can obtain this important information from the General tab within the settings.

To generate your Consumer Key and Secret, navigate to the Advanced Settings tab in WooCommerce. From there, go to WooCommerce -> Settings -> Advanced -> REST API. This will allow you to create and obtain the necessary keys and secrets required for connecting Odoo to your WooCommerce store.

Features of woo-commerce connector

Community & Enterprise Support

Our Woo-Commerce Connector module is supported by both the community and enterprise versions of Odoo.

User-friendly Dashboard

The module features a user-friendly dashboard that allows you to view all the information related to the synced products, customers, orders, categories, and instances. From the dashboard, you can easily filter products and view recent orders to help streamline your workflow.

Operations can be done on both sides

When you create a new product in Odoo, the sync functionality will automatically generate a corresponding product in WooCommerce. All relevant product information, such as name, description, price, and images, will be seamlessly transferred over to your WooCommerce store.

Similarly, when you create a new product in WooCommerce, the sync functionality will automatically create a corresponding product in Odoo. All relevant product information, including name, description, price, and images, will be synchronized and accessible in Odoo.

When you edit a product in Odoo, any changes made, such as updating the product description or changing the price, will be automatically synced to your WooCommerce store. This ensures that the product information in WooCommerce is always up-to-date with the latest changes made in Odoo.

We can also sync products, and customers one by one using the action button, for that just select a product then click on action->Sync product

Similarly, if you make changes to a product in WooCommerce, such as updating the product description or changing the price, the changes will be automatically synced to Odoo. This means that the product information in Odoo will always reflect the latest updates made in WooCommerce.

Bidirectional syncing between Odoo and WooCommerce ensures that all product and contact information is kept up-to-date and accurate across both platforms. This means that any updates or changes made in either Odoo or WooCommerce will be automatically synced and reflected in the other platform.

When it comes to orders, any updates or changes made in WooCommerce will be automatically synced and reflected in Odoo. However, from Odoo, you can only update the order state, which will also be reflected in WooCommerce.

Multi-company support

When creating an instance in the WooCommerce connector module, you have the option to make it company-specific by checking a checkbox. This means that any records imported from that instance, such as products, customers, and orders, will be created as company-specific records in Odoo.

Multi-instance support

The WooCommerce connector module allows you to connect multiple instances with Odoo. When importing records, such as products, customers, and orders, you can see the instance data within these records. This allows you to easily differentiate between records coming from different instances.

Automatic record update functionality

One of the best features of the WooCommerce connector module is the automatic synchronization of data between Odoo and WooCommerce. During installation, the module creates a scheduled action that runs daily, so you don't need to click the sync button every time. This ensures that your records, such as products, customers, and orders, are always up to date in both Odoo and WooCommerce.

Tax mapping

During the first product import, all WooCommerce taxes are automatically created in Odoo, and the WooCommerce orders are displayed in Odoo as well. Additionally, if you create a new tax within Odoo, you can select it from WooCommerce.

Product attribute and variant sync

The Odoo WooCommerce connector supports the creation of multiple product variants in WooCommerce. When you import products from WooCommerce to Odoo, all variants of a product are created in Odoo as well, along with their respective prices, attributes, and stock quantities. This makes it easy for businesses to manage their product variants on both platforms simultaneously.

Automatic currency conversion

The currency conversion functionality in the Odoo WooCommerce connector is very useful when the currencies used in Odoo and WooCommerce are different. The connector uses a currency-converter API to get real-time currency exchange rates and automatically converts the amounts while importing orders and products. This makes it easy to manage transactions and keep track of the financials, especially when dealing with customers and suppliers across different countries and regions.

Woo commerce Copen sync

Our module can also sync the coupon information from WooCommerce orders to Odoo. This helps in tracking the promotions and discounts applied to the orders in WooCommerce from Odoo. The information that gets synced includes the coupon code, discount amount, and discount type.

Import-export logs

The logs provide detailed information about the success and failure of the import/export process. In case of any errors or failures, the description box will contain the cause of the error, which can be useful in troubleshooting and resolving the issue. The logs can also be used to track the history of the synchronization process, providing an audit trail for the data transfer between Odoo and WooCommerce.

In summary, the WooCommerce connector module for Odoo provides bidirectional syncing of product, customer, and order data between the two platforms, enabling seamless management of e-commerce operations. With user-friendly dashboards and scheduled syncing, this module makes it easy to keep track of inventory, orders, and customers across both platforms. Additionally, it allows for company-specific imports, currency conversion, and the tracking of promotions and coupons. With logs to track import and export failures, this module streamlines the e-commerce process and provides seamless integration between Odoo and WooCommerce.
