Hello everyone, could someone guide me on whether there is the possibility of creating a kind of automatic action in odoo where what is done is to export xls files on the records of a defined model and send the file to an ftp server? As if it were the export action from Odoo but do it automatically and store it in a specific place.
Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
- CRM
- e-Commerce
- Accounting
- Inventory
- PoS
- Project management
- MRP

Hi,
I've done something similar. the solution is quite easy if you follow these steps:
1- Create your Scheduled or automated action with code record.function1()
2- in function1(), get the records you want to export.
3- add sub_function export_xls you your function1 where you only add export process of the records you got.
4- google how to export xls in python, there are plenty of blogs. I use xlsxwriter
5 - function sub_function returns a path to your xls file.
6- use pysftp with your given credentials to open a session. there are also lots of blogs that talk about pysftp.
7- session.put(path) where path is the return of sub_function
8- check your file in your sftp space with : sftp -P port user@domain
Hope this helps.
Hello Ibrahim, do you have an example ?
