Why connect Telegram to Odoo ERP (Inventory, Invoicing)
Beyond CRM, Odoo’s Inventory and Invoicing modules can drive Telegram order tracking, invoicing and B2B reorders. This page covers the ERP side; see the Odoo CRM page for sales. Without the integration, Telegram becomes a separate silo; with it, every chat, order or request lands on the right record, your team gets alerts where they already are, and customers get updates in the chat they actually read.
How the integration works
- Auth. API key for an integration user.
- Orders. Sales orders and invoices from Telegram; delivery orders tracked.
- Notifications. Automated actions → Telegram updates.
- B2B. Reorder Mini App with partner pricing.
Typical flows
- Order → invoice → payment link in Telegram
- Delivery validated → tracking message
- Stock alerts to staff
