This script will make an XML-RPC or JSON-RPC request to the Odoo server to try to find the name of the person corresponding to the phone number of the remote party. On incoming and outgoing phone calls, the Asterisk dialplan executes a script. The second main feature is : it adds the ability to show the name of the correspondant on incoming and outgoing phone calls if the phone number is present in the Partners, Leads or Employees of Odoo. If the remote party answers, the user can talk to his correspondent. The user answers his own phone (if he doesn’t, the process stops here).Īsterisk dials the phone number found in Odoo in place of the user. In Odoo, in a form view that has a phone/mobile field, the user clicks on the phone number (on v10 and lower, he has to click on the dial button next to the phone number field). The Odoo-Asterisk connector has three main features.
