Automate customer’s EDI order-to-invoice process, shipment confirmations, inventory updates, and other EDI transactions directly inside Odoo ERP.
Vraja Technologies helps mid-sized manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers reduce manual work, minimise data-entry errors, improved document accuracy, helped prevent retailer chargebacks and manage complex Odoo integrations and upgrades with greater confidence.
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is the standardized electronic exchange of business documents between companies. Large retailers like Walmart, Target, Costco, and Amazon Vendor Central require every supplier to send and receive EDI documents - purchase orders, shipment confirmations, invoices, and more - in specific formats.
Without automation, this means logging into multiple vendor portals, manually downloading orders, uploading invoices, and tracking each step separately. With Vraja Technologies' Odoo EDI Integration, the entire workflow is automated and managed from a single platform inside your Odoo ERP.
If you sell to large retailers, distributors, or marketplace platforms, EDI is not optional - it is a compliance requirement. But the real challenge is that every trading partner has different rules:
Managing these manually creates duplicate work, increases chargebacks, and risks delayed payments. A single missed field in an ASN or invoice can trigger compliance penalties from major retailers.
A centralized Odoo EDI Integration eliminates this risk by automating each step and keeping all data, errors, and document history inside your existing Odoo system.
Our Odoo EDI Integration is designed to connect with a wide range of retailers, distributors, and 3PL partners. Each partner has its own EDI specification - we review and configure the correct mapping for your business.
At Vraja Technologies, we help businesses connect Odoo with leading EDI platforms and trading partner networks such as CommerceHub / Rithum and TrueCommerce. Our team has experience working with retailer EDI requirements for trading partners like Walmart, Costco, RONA, Staples, Leon’s, The Brick, and many more.
Many large retailers use EDI networks or gateways to exchange orders, shipment updates, invoices, and inventory information with their suppliers. We help automate this complete flow inside Odoo, so businesses do not need to manually manage data across multiple portals or systems.
Our Odoo EDI integration allows suppliers to receive retailer orders directly in Odoo, process them through the standard sales and delivery workflow, and send the required EDI responses back through the connected EDI platform. This helps reduce manual work, improve accuracy, speed up order processing, and maintain trading partner compliance.
We support all standard EDI document types across the full order-to-cash and procure-to-pay workflow. The exact document set depends on your trading partner's EDI implementation guide.
For trading partners operating on the EDIFACT standard (common in Europe, Asia-Pacific, and global retail chains), we support the following message types across the full order-to-cash workflow:
Because our module is developed using standard EDI formats, most of the common trading partner requirements are already covered in the base workflow. In many cases, the standard EDI structure can cover around 80% of the trading partner requirements.
However, every trading partner may have some specific rules. For example, Walmart, Target, Costco, Amazon Vendor Central, or any other retailer may require extra fields, custom segments, special reference numbers, carton-level details, pallet details, SSCC codes, carrier-specific information, label requirements, or partner-specific validation rules.
In such cases, we can customize the EDI mapping based on the trading partner’s exact requirement. This customization is usually required only for specific extra parameters or special business rules. The important advantage is that this is handled as a one-time customization cost, not as a recurring monthly subscription.
With our Odoo EDI Integration, you do not need to pay us monthly fees just to continue using the integration. Once the setup and required customization are completed, your team can manage the complete EDI process directly from Odoo.
This helps businesses reduce long-term operational costs and avoid dependency on multiple external platforms.
Once integrated, your team can manage all EDI operations from one system - no external portals, no separate EDI software, no manual data entry.
Manage orders, acknowledgements, inventory, fulfillment, ASN, invoices, errors, and trading partners from one connected workflow.

All trading partners managed from one Odoo backend - each with its own mapping, rules, and communication settings
Our integration is built on standard EDI document formats (X12 / ANSI). This means the base workflow covers the most common trading partner requirements without starting from scratch for every partner.
Every trading partner has its own EDI implementation guide. We review your partner's specification and configure the exact field mapping, validation rules, required segments, SSCC logic, routing codes, and any partner-specific requirements inside Odoo.
We configure the selected communication protocol for each trading partner - AS2, SFTP, or FTP - so documents flow automatically in and out of Odoo without manual intervention.
We support the trading partner's testing and certification process, including test document exchange, acknowledgement validation, and any compliance checks required before going live.
Once live, your team manages the daily EDI workflow inside Odoo. If a trading partner updates their EDI requirements, we handle the mapping change as a one-time update.

The client is a manufacturer and wholesale distributor supplying products to major retail trading partners, including Costco, Walmart, RONA, Staples, Leon’s, and The Brick. The company was already using TrueCommerce and CommerceHub to exchange EDI documents with these retailers. However, the internal process was still completely manual. Employees had to download purchase orders from the EDI provider portal, create sales orders in Odoo, check inventory, process deliveries, and manually update shipment and invoice information back in the EDI portal.

Read ArticleYes. With our Odoo EDI Integration, you can connect Odoo with trading partners like Walmart, Target, Costco, Amazon Vendor Central, Kroger, Home Depot, Best Buy, Wayfair, Lowe’s, and many more.
Each trading partner has its own EDI guidelines, document format, and required fields. We review the trading partner’s EDI specification and configure the required mapping inside Odoo.
Yes. We have developed our Odoo EDI Integration based on standard EDI formats. Common EDI documents such as 850 Purchase Order, 855 Order Acknowledgement, 856 ASN, 810 Invoice, 846 Inventory Advice, 832 Product Catalog, and 997 Functional Acknowledgement are supported based on the business flow.
Because we follow standard EDI formats, most common trading partner requirements are already covered in the base workflow.
In most cases, our standard EDI flow can cover around 80% of common trading partner requirements. However, some trading partners may require extra fields, custom segments, special validation rules, carton-level details, pallet details, SSCC codes, routing details, or partner-specific reference numbers.
If any trading partner requires extra parameters, we can customize the EDI mapping based on their exact requirement.
Not always. If the trading partner follows standard EDI formats, the standard mapping can cover most of the flow.
Customization is required only when the trading partner has special requirements, additional mandatory fields, custom business rules, or unique document validation rules.
For example, Walmart, Target, Costco, or Amazon Vendor Central may have different ASN, invoice, or product identification requirements. In that case, we customize the mapping as per their EDI specification.
No. From our side, the Odoo EDI Integration is provided with a one-time setup cost. We do not charge a monthly subscription for using the core Odoo EDI integration.
If any trading partner requires additional customization, that customization can also be handled as a one-time development cost.
Many EDI platforms allow you to connect multiple trading partners in one system, but they usually charge monthly subscription fees, partner-wise fees, document transaction fees, or mapping charges.

Â
Common errors may include:
The user can review the error in Odoo, correct the data, and reprocess the document where required.
EDI is not always fully plug-and-play because each trading partner may have different rules and document requirements.
Â
Our module provides a strong standard EDI framework, but final setup depends on the trading partner specification, Odoo workflow, product mapping, customer mapping, and communication method.
Â
We configure and customize the integration based on your exact business process.
To start the EDI setup, we usually need:
