auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0

Automatically imports vendor invoices received through EDI exchanges into Odoo and, if configured, posts them. It also warns when an invoice was already imported before.

This module connects the EDI exchange machinery with the invoice import wizard, so invoices arriving through an EDI exchange can be turned into accounting entries automatically.

When an EDI exchange record is processed, the module runs the standard invoice import wizard on the file attached to the exchange. If the import succeeds, a new invoice (account.move) is created and linked back to the exchange record, and a message confirms the invoice name.

On the exchange type, in the advanced settings, you can add the component with usage input.process.account.invoice and set post_invoice to true. When that option is enabled, the newly created invoice is posted automatically right after import; otherwise it stays in draft for review.

If the import wizard detects that the invoice was already imported before, the module does not create a duplicate. Instead it posts a note on the exchange record showing the message "Invoice has already been imported before", a link to the existing invoice, and a link to the previous exchange record, then raises an error to stop the process.

The module is installed automatically when both EDI and invoice import are present. It touches the EDI exchange records and the accounting moves, and adds a chatter template used to display the duplicate-import warning.
