By default, when importing data (like CSV import) with the ``base_import``
|
||||
module, Odoo follows this rule:
|
||||
|
||||
- If you import the XMLID of a record, make an **update**.
|
||||
- If you do not, **create** a new record.
|
||||
|
||||
This module allows you to set additional rules to match if a given import is an
|
||||
update or a new record.
|
||||
|
||||
This is useful when you need to sync heterogeneous databases, and the field you
|
||||
use to match records in those databases with Odoo's is not the XMLID but the
|
||||
name, VAT, email, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
After installing this module, the import logic will be changed to:
|
||||
|
||||
- If you import the XMLID of a record, make an **update**.
|
||||
- If you do not:
|
||||
|
||||
- If there are import match rules for the model you are importing:
|
||||
|
||||
- Discard the rules that require fields you are not importing.
|
||||
- Traverse the remaining rules one by one in order to find a match in the database.
|
||||
|
||||
- Skip the rule if it requires a special condition that is not
|
||||
satisfied.
|
||||
- If one match is found:
|
||||
|
||||
- Stop traversing the rest of valid rules.
|
||||
- **Update** that record.
|
||||
- If zero or multiple matches are found:
|
||||
|
||||
- Continue with the next rule.
|
||||
- If all rules are exhausted and no single match is found:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Create** a new record.
|
||||
- If there are no match rules for your model:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Create** a new record.
|
||||
|
||||
By default 2 rules are installed for production instances:
|
||||
|
||||
- One rule that will allow you to update companies based on their VAT, when
|
||||
``is_company`` is ``True``.
|
||||
- One rule that will allow you to update users based on their login.
|
||||
|
||||
In demo instances there are more examples.
