An integration between Alfresco and Odoo
One of the great features Acsone will present during the Odoo experience 2016 event is the Alfodoo connector. This connector helps to seamlessly integrate Odoo with Alfresco, the leading open-source Enterprise Content Management platform, when documents and content management capabilities are necessary.
Alfodoo combines the benefits of both systems and helps to deliver a global platform covering a wide range of functionality that an organization requires.
The major functionality of this unique integration between both systems are the following:
- From a user's point of view, the users can manage their Alfresco contents transparently within the Odoo user interface:
- Easy storage and management of documents
- Embedded document preview
- Contents drag & drop directly in the appropriate Alfresco folder
- Automatic versioning of documents
- Document properties (metadata) preview
- From a developer's point of view, the ease of installation and configuration: a new type of odoo field (cmis_field) can be used to embed the creation and the linking to an alfresco folder. A widget is associated to this field giving a direct access to the items (documents lists, sub-folders) contained in the linked Alfresco folder.
