How a connector works
The mechanics of a connector — the outbound half that polls, maps and publishes, the inbound bridge that answers identity questions, and the design rules the code holds you to.
#connectors#sync#mapping#bridge#webhook#idempotencyIdentifiers: GTIN, SKU and What Identifies What
One product needs exactly one GS1 identifier — the GTIN. Where the connector finds it, why your SKU is a different thing, and how batch, serial and logistics-unit levels build on top.
#connectors#gtin#sku#lgtin#sgtin#sscc#check-digitThe UnoPim connector
The whole UnoPim route — what has to exist in the PIM, how the connection is configured, what the first sync publishes, and where the data surfaces in DDM and on the published passport page.
#connectors#unopim#pim#gtin#mapping#webhook#passportEvents, Credentials and Representations
What happens after a record is published — how a movement in your source system becomes an EPCIS event, where UNTP answers the same question differently, and how a passport gains a signed, selectively disclosed representation.

One warehouse day walked through end to end — goods in, packed onto a pallet, shipped, part of it back, the rest ground into another article, and one report taken back — with the screen and the EPCIS event it produces side by side.
#connectors#odoo#epcis#events#sscc#aggregation#transformation#tutorialopenepcis_connector: products and contacts as GS1 master data
The base addon. Products and company contacts are queued on save and published to the catalog behind the GS1 Digital Link resolver; a GTIN can be drawn from your own prefix; the field mapping is data an administrator edits; the form says what a registry still wants before you publish.
#connectors#odoo#master-data#gtin#gln#field-mapping#offline-token#digital-linkopenepcis_connector_stock: lots and serial numbers
The bridge to Inventory. A lot becomes /01/<gtin>/10/<lot>, a serial number /01/<gtin>/21/<serial>, each a document of its own in the catalog under the product's GTIN — with the instance-level Digital Link and its QR code on the lot form, where labels are actually printed.

A data-only bridge. Three mapping rows carry the dates Odoo's Expiration Dates app keeps on a lot — expiration date, best-before date, and an inactive sell-by row — into the per-instance catalog document under their GS1 names.
#connectors#odoo#expiry#best-before#lot#mappingopenepcis_connector_events: visibility events
Every validated transfer becomes an EPCIS 2.0 ObjectEvent, packing an AggregationEvent under an SSCC, a return a TransactionEvent, and a wrong report an error declaration. Three settings decide what is reported — the company switch, the operation type, the location — and an outbox keeps the warehouse from ever waiting on the repository. Partners' events come back into an inbox that shows and, where two settings agree, posts.
#connectors#odoo#epcis#events#objectevent#aggregationevent#sscc#gln#outbox#inbox#error-declarationopenepcis_connector_events_mrp: manufacturing events
The bridge to Manufacturing. A finished manufacturing order is reported as the one TransformationEvent it is — components in, goods out, and the claim that the second came from the first, which is the only thing in EPCIS that carries a chain of custody across a production step.
#connectors#odoo#mrp#transformationevent#epcis#chain-of-custodyopenepcis_connector_events_pos: point-of-sale events
The bridge to Point of Sale. A till's orders leave the warehouse through an operation type that looks exactly like a delivery to the stock module; this addon knows the difference and reports a sale as retail_selling with the goods retail_sold — and keeps that reading current as tills are configured and moved.
#connectors#odoo#pos#retail_selling#retail_sold#epcis#tillThe Odoo connector
Seven LGPL-3 addons that publish Odoo's products, contacts, lots and serial numbers to a GS1 Digital Link and report what happens to them as EPCIS 2.0 events — one page per addon, and a warehouse day walked through screen by screen.

Publish products from UnoPim, ERPNext, metasfresh or Odoo to a GS1 Digital Link, a digital product passport and EPCIS events.
