Part of

Order confirmations, quotes, and invoices arrive as emails and PDFs, and someone usually re-types them into the ERP. These eight modules build on the OCA's PDF-import-by-template and EDI frameworks so Odoo 18 Community can read those documents itself. You describe a document once as a template, and every matching email or PDF after that becomes a record, with a review queue for anything uncertain.
## Features
**`base_import_pdf_by_template_engine`
:**
extension points that let other pattern engines and tools plug into the OCA import module, plus fixes for two table-extraction bugs.
**`import_from_email`
:**
plain-text and HTML extraction modes, and a mail alias that files each inbound email as a tracked, retryable EDI exchange record.
**`edi_import_router`
:**
one inbox for emailed and printed documents. A TypeSafe classifier picks the document type, confident matches are filed automatically, and the rest wait for review.
**`import_via_xberg`
:**
an extraction mode backed by the
`xberg`
library that parses PDFs into structured tables, with JSONPath to narrow each field before its pattern runs.
**`import_preview`
:**
a saved sample per template and a live preview of each line's match while you write it.
**`import_create_missing`
:**
creates the linked record (a product, say) when a lookup misses, prefilled with the required fields.
**`import_create_missing_xberg`
:**
JSONPath support for those new-record values, installed automatically when both modules are present.
**`edi_purchase_order_import`
:**
confirms a purchase order as soon as it is imported from an inbound document and notifies the group you choose.
## Getting started
Add the repository's
`18.0`
branch to your addons path along with OCA's
`edi`
,
`edi-framework`
, and
`queue`

[documentation](https://docs.avunu.net/edi-addons/)
explains how the pieces fit and how to build your first template. With
[odoo-nix](/open-source/odoo-nix/)
:
`odoo module add Avunu/edi-addons 18.0`
.
