ODOO INTEGRATION HUB

PythonOdooPostgreSQLREST APIs
TECHNICAL SUMMARY

A central integration hub built inside Odoo ERP to automate business-critical operations. The organization struggled with manual data entry between field devices and the ERP, delaying inventory management and financial reporting. Custom Python modules extend Odoo's models and expose a restricted REST API for field workers, with PostgreSQL indexing optimized for high-frequency writes and webhook-based alerts for external task routing. The system handles thousands of automated status transitions per day.

ENGINEERING_DECISIONS
PROBLEMField data was re-typed by hand into the ERP, delaying inventory and financial reporting.
DECISIONA restricted REST API over custom Odoo modules lets field devices sync in real time.
PROBLEMA standalone middleware would duplicate business data outside the ERP.
DECISIONBuilt inside Odoo to keep a single source of truth, accepting the ORM's complexity under high load.
PROBLEMHigh-frequency writes from field devices strained the database.
DECISIONPostgreSQL indexing optimized specifically for the hot write paths.
CHALLENGE
Real-time device-to-ERP sync without breaking single-source-of-truth integrity.
IMPACT
Manual synchronization reduced from 4 hours daily to under 5 minutes.
