Odoo DATEV API Integration
The much. Odoo DATEV integration connects your Odoo accounting system with DATEV via API.
Connect Odoo and DATEV for a fully automated export of journal entries, master data, documents, and cost centre information while staying compliant with German accounting requisites.
Do your accounting in Odoo. Send your data to DATEV.
DATEV is the standard for accounting in Germany. If you're using Odoo, your financial data still needs to reach DATEV in the right format, with the right structure, and often on a tight schedule.
Without a direct connection, this usually means exporting files manually and sending them by email. Our Odoo DATEV integration is designed for accurate, audit-compliant and fully automated exports across your entire financial workflow.
It connects Odoo to DATEV via API and transfers your data automatically. Your accountant receives the records directly in DATEV, complete, structured and ready to review. Exporting to DATEV from Odoo can be done manually, via API, or automatically on schedule.
The Odoo DATEV connector keeps your accounting audit-ready
- Export of journal entries: Send invoices, vendor bills, credit notes, bank statements, and miscellaneous entries from Odoo to DATEV.

- Export of master data: Transfer customer and vendor records to DATEV, including names, tax IDs, addresses, and company details.
- Customisable export setup: Select which journals to include, choose your export frequency, and define which fields to send.
- Manual and scheduled transfers: Exports can run daily, monthly, or quarterly. They can also be triggered manually via API at any time.
- Secure authentication: Connect your Odoo environment to DATEV using SmartLogin, SmartCard, or mIDentity.
- Comprehensive logging: Track every integration run in the Integration Hub, retry failed jobs, and review detailed logs when needed.
