What you can do with Odoo in Sylus
Sylus works across the Odoo apps your team already uses, from Sales and Invoicing to Inventory and CRM. Ask "What were sales by salesperson last month?" or "Which products have the slowest stock turnover?" and get numbers and charts straight away. A good fit for growing companies that have outgrown Odoo's built-in reports.
How the Odoo integration works
Sylus connects through Odoo's external API (XML-RPC and JSON-RPC) using an API key for a user with read access. It reads the models and fields you select, such as sales orders, invoices, stock moves, and leads, and keeps them up to date for reporting. Sylus never writes to Odoo.
