<p>Base EDI backend.</p>
<p>Provides following models:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>EDI Backend, to centralize configuration</li>
<li>EDI Backend Type, to classify EDI backends (eg: UBL, GS1, e-invoice, pick-yours)</li>
<li>EDI Exchange Type, to define file types of exchange</li>
<li>EDI Exchange Record, to define a record exchanged between systems</li>
</ol>
<p>Also define a mixin to be inherited by records that will generate EDIs</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id1">Configuration</a></h2>
<p>This module aims to provide an infrastructure to simplify interchangability of documents
between systems providing a configuration platform.
It will be inherited by other modules in order to define the proper implementations of
components.</p>
<p>In order to define a new Exchange Record, we need to configure:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Backend Type</li>
<li>Exchange Type</li>
<li>Backend</li>
<li>Components</li>
</ul>
<a name="component-definition"></a>
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id2">Component definition</a></h3>
<p>The component usage must be defined like <cite>edi.{direction}.{kind}.{code}</cite> where:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>direction is <cite>output</cite> or <cite>input</cite></li>
<li>kind can be: <cite>generate</cite>, <cite>send</cite>, <cite>check</cite>, <cite>process</cite>, <cite>receive</cite></li>
<li>code is the <cite>{backend type code}</cite> or <cite>{backend type code}.{exchange type code}</cite></li>
</ul>
<a name="user-edi-generation"></a>
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">User EDI generation</a></h3>
<p>On the exchange type, it might be possible to define a set of models, a domain and a
snippet of code.
After defining this fields, we will automatically see buttons on the view to generate
the exchange records.
This configuration is useful to define a way of generation managed by user.</p>
<a name="usage"></a>
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Usage</a></h2>
<p>After certain operations or manual execution, Exchange records will be generated.
This Exchange records might be input records or outputs records.</p>
<p>The change of state can be manually executed by the system or be managed through by
<cite>ir.cron</cite>.</p>
<a name="output-exchange-records"></a>
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id5">Output Exchange records</a></h3>
<p>An output record is intended to be used for exchange information from Odoo to another
system.</p>
<p>The flow of an output record should be:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Creation</li>
<li>Generation of data</li>
<li>Validation of data</li>
<li>Sending data</li>
<li>Validation of data processed properly by the other party</li>
</ul>
<a name="input-exchange-records"></a>
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id6">Input Exchange records</a></h3>
<p>An input record is intended to be used for exchange information another system to odoo.</p>
<p>The flow of an input record should be:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Creation</li>
<li>Reception of data</li>
<li>Checking data</li>
<li>Processing data</li>
</ul>
