Provide basic configuration for EDIFACT with EDI framework.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0Adds an EDIFACT backend type to the EDI framework, so users can configure EDI backends that exchange EDIFACT messages and use EDIFACT-specific party data.
This module plugs EDIFACT support into Odoo's EDI framework. It does not add its own screens or menus; instead it makes an "EDIFACT" option available wherever EDI backends are configured.
What it changes:
- A new backend type named "EDIFACT" (code edifact) is created in the edi.backend.type model. Users select it when creating an EDI backend, which tells Odoo that this backend exchanges EDIFACT messages.
- A party data provider component specific to EDIFACT is registered, so the EDI framework can retrieve party (partner) data in the EDIFACT format when processing messages.
- A demo EDI backend called "EDIFACT backend demo" is provided for testing and demonstration purposes.
The module is set to install automatically once its dependencies (edi_oca, edi_party_data_oca, base_edifact) are present, so no manual installation step is needed. It touches the EDI backend configuration area and the party data handling used by EDI exchanges. No business rules, validations, scheduled jobs or reports are added by this module itself; the actual message processing is handled by the underlying EDI framework and the base EDIFACT module.
