Is there a way to update customer data by import via .csv files? I have problems with it, as long as i know import .csv only create new data instance, not update.

You have to specify the "id" column (postgresql or xml internal id) for openerp to update existing data instead of creating new record.

Try to export the list of customers, including the ID column. Then you have a CSV you can use to update records by reimporting the same file (previously updated but keeping the ID column untouched)

Tried. Difficult to use. Starting to feel annoy. Tried to import client's details, don't seems to have import function. Tried to import invoices, "No matching record found for name 'XXX' in field 'xxx' at row x. Get all possible values. Tried to import products, same thing. What's wrong????!!!

Thanks, solved

It works when I updated a char field, but when I try to update a many2one Field it does not change anything, I tried with the id, external id and name of that many2one field without success.
