Yes, here is a demo:

How do I pair Odoo?

Here are the steps:

  1. Login to Connex.
  2. Pair a selling channel.
  3. On the pair accounting page, choose the Odoo tab.
  4. Enter your Odoo user name and password. Your database name is found in the URL where you enter Odoo. For example, https://connex-commerce.odoo.com/odoo/action-291 means enter connex-commerce:

How do products match?

We match the Odoo name field to your product SKU. Here is the Odoo internal reference field:

In Shopify, here is the SKU field:

What touchpoints do you offer?

We sync sales to and from Odoo. We can sync stock updates from Odoo to a selling channel, like Shopify.

How do I map sales tax?

Odoo allows order items to have different tax codes.

If the item is of type service, then no tax code is required. Odoo will assume non-taxable. All inventory parts required a tax code. Here are shipping, discounts and tax without tax codes:

You must write a rule in Connex to map the tax code. In this example, we will map 0% as the tax code and add tax as a line item.

  1. Log into Connex Ecommerce.
  2. Go to sales tax.
  3. Check add tax as a line item.
  4. Go to rules engine.
  5. Go to add new rule.
  6. Enter the title Map 0% Exports.
  7. As the action, enter map order item tax code.
  8. In the conditions, enter SKU (after rules) is not, *. This tells Connex to always apply the rule.
  9. In the value field, enter  0% Exports.

Here is the end result:
