A dressed-down Mako template language can be used for this.</p> <a name="installation"></a> <h3>Installation</h3> <ul class="simple"> <li>Install this module</li> <li>Install any <cite>external_file_location_*</cite> modules for external storage services that you want to use</li> </ul> <a name="configuration"></a> <h3>Configuration</h3> <ul> <li><p class="first">Configure the <cite>external_file_location_*</cite> modules with the correct username and password, and establish a connection (see README of those modules).</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Create the Sync Rules in <em>Settings-&gt;External Backup-&gt;Attachment Sync Rules</em></p> <ul class="simple"> <li>Select the Odoo 'Model' of which you want the attachments to sync</li> <li>Select which 'Sync' to use. These are based on protocols installed through the <cite>external_file_location_*</cite> modules (Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon S3) and can be set per company</li> <li>Sefine which files to include by 'Domain' and specify how they should be named through 'File Name Format', e.g &quot;${object.name}&quot; for Sale Orders will save the file as SO001.pdf depending on the SO name</li> <li>Save and either 'Sync Now' or 'Queue for Sync'</li> </ul> <img alt="static/description/sync_rules.png" src="static/description/sync_rules.png" style="width: 700px;" /> </li> <li><p class="first">Queue for Sync button creates the metadata from old attachment files for the cron task: Settings &gt; Technical &gt; Database Structure &gt; Meta Data Attachments</p> </li> <li><p class="first">Add more models you want to sync attachments for in &quot;Referenceable Models&quot; <em>Settings-&gt;Technical-&gt; Database Structure -&gt; Referenceable Models</em></p> </li> <li><p class="first">Repeat this process for all desired sync rules.
