To import Data form Excel Files to Odoo. You should add the xlrd package to Odoo Server, to do so you must:


1/ Download the xlrd package from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlrd/0.9.2 (I took the tar.gz file)
2/ Extract the folder and Copy only the xlrd folder from it.
3/ Past the xlrd folder in your server (next the addons folder)
4/ Restart the server.

Why not a simple pip install XlsxWriter?

* I already executed this command, but the import of data from Excel files doesn't work without putting the xlrd folder in Odoo Server.

* Maybe there is other ways.

* I think "pip install XlsxWriter" is used when you want to print reports from Odoo in Excel.
