Odoo CS-Cart Connector

A dedicated server configuration view that allows users to set up, authenticate, and manage the connection to their CS-Cart store.

• Test Connection: Instantly validates API authentication between Odoo and the CS-Cart store using the configured Store URL, Email, and API Key.

• Selective Synchronization: Users can explicitly choose which entities to sync (Categories, Attributes, Products, Customers, Orders) using simple checkbox selections before triggering an import or export.

The module supports efficient data synchronization mechanisms to handle large volumes of e-commerce data without blocking the user interface.

• Background Processing: If the Odoo queue_job module is installed, synchronization tasks are automatically dispatched as background jobs. If not, the system intelligently falls back to direct execution.

• Import / Export Actions: Single-click buttons to instantly queue or execute the import or export of the selected data entities.

Provides a dedicated Import Batch tracking system within Odoo that logs every synchronization event, serving as a comprehensive audit trail for all data imports.

• It lists individual batch jobs along with their specific import type (e.g., Products, Orders), creation time, and real-time state (Pending, In Progress, Done, Failed).
• It maintains detailed HTML log notes for troubleshooting and links directly to the related background Queue Job.
• Live Updates: The module utilizes Odoo's bus system to broadcast live UI updates, ensuring users always see the most up-to-date batch statuses without needing to refresh the page.
• Users can easily monitor success/failure metrics directly from the main configuration page.

The connector provides dedicated, modular synchronization for key e-commerce entities to ensure accurate mapping into Odoo's data structures:

• Categories & Attributes: Imports CS-Cart category hierarchies and product attributes.
• Products & Customers: Syncs CS-Cart products into Odoo's product templates/variants and maps CS-Cart users into Odoo Contacts.
• Orders: Automates the import of CS-Cart sales orders directly into Odoo's sales application for streamlined fulfillment.

To keep Odoo and CS-Cart constantly aligned without manual intervention the connector supports real-time, event-driven data synchronization using webhooks.

• Instant Order Import: Newly placed orders in CS-Cart are immediately pushed to Odoo, allowing for rapid fulfillment and accurate real-time sales reporting.
• Live Inventory Updates: Any changes to stock levels in Odoo (due to sales, purchases, or manual adjustments) are instantly synced back to CS-Cart to prevent overselling
• Product & Customer Updates: Modifications to product details, pricing, or customer profiles in either system trigger immediate updates to keep both platforms consistent.
• Webhook Management: Easily generate, register, and manage webhook end points directly from the Odoo configuration panel.

A dedicated Odoo Dashboard for the connector:

• Visual charts showing sync success rates vs failures.
• Metrics on total orders imported today/this week.
• Quick links to resolve failed batch jobs.

• Map CS-Cart shipping methods directly to Odoo Delivery Methods (Carriers).
• Sync Shipping costs as dedicated service lines on the Odoo Sales Order.
