EDI

EDI, or electronic data interchange, is the inter-company communication of business documents, such as purchase orders and invoices, in a standard format. Sending documents according to an EDI standard ensures that the machine receiving the message can interpret the information correctly. Various EDI file formats exist and are available depending on your company’s country.

EDI feature enables automating the administration between companies and might also be required by some governments for fiscal control or to facilitate the administration.

Electronic invoicing of your documents such as customer invoices, credit notes or vendor bills is one of the application of EDI.

Configuration

Go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Journals ‣ Customer Invoices ‣ Advanced Settings ‣ Electronic Invoicing and enable the formats you need for this journal.

Select the EDI format you need

Once an electronic invoicing format is enabled, XML documents are generated when clicking on Confirm in documents such as invoices, credit notes, etc. These documents are either visible in the attachment section, or embedded in the PDF.

Note

  • For E-FFF, the xml file only appears after having generated the PDF (Print or Send & Print button), since the PDF needs to be embedded inside the xml.

  • By default, the Factur-X option is enabled. It means that an XML file is automatically included in the PDF document that is sent.

  • The formats available depend on the country registered in your company’s General Information.

  • Odoo supports the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 format that can be used via existing access points.

Example

If you want to use the Belgian format E-FFF in a database created prior to July 2022, you need to install:
