auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0When importing a customer's UBL order file, Odoo now reads the customer reference written in the XML and stores it on the sales order, instead of using the standard customer reference field.
This module is a small connector that works automatically once both the UBL sale order import and the customer free reference features are installed. It does not add any new screen or menu.
When a user imports a customer order file in UBL format (for example an Order or RequestForQuotation document), Odoo reads the CustomerReference value contained in the file.
- That value is placed in the customer free reference field of the sales order, while the standard customer reference field is left empty.
- The order number coming from the file is stored in the customer order number field.
Odoo also uses these two pieces of information to recognise an order that was already imported: it looks for an existing order with the same customer order number and the same commercial entity, so duplicates are avoided.
All of this happens inside the sale order import wizard (sale.order.import); the sales order itself is created with the usual import process. No new models, menus, reports or scheduled actions are added.
