Module description

Using Infor ION (http://infor.com), this module is meant to provide the facility to integrate Odoo with Infor. You should provide your specific integration scenario in a separate module inheriting this one.

There are 2 options to exchange data:

1. SQL: an intermediate database supported by your version of Infor ION
2. File: a file server supporting FTP, SFTP or any protocol supported by storage_backend

Database

The structure of the database is the one suggested by Infor with inbox and outbox tables. You can find the script to create the structure here:
IOBOX script create.zip

File

The BOD file is transferred to the file server where it is read by Infor Ion and processed.

Installation

Database

• Setup a MySQL or MSSQL server that can be accessed by Odoo and Infor ION
• Create a database using the script in IOBOX script create.zip
• Create 2 users for Odoo and Infor ION and make sure they can connect to the database remotely

File

• Setup a file server that can be accessed by Odoo and Infor ION using the selected protocol of the file storage

Configuration

• Go to Settings > Connectors > Infor Backends
• Create a new backend by entering all the info of the intermediate database and the message headers
