Business Operations

Enter retailer purchase orders into your ERP line by line

A food brand's ops lead has Grok Bot enter incoming retailer purchase orders, 20 to 25 products each at different prices, into Odoo instead of staff typing every line by hand (self-reported). Odoo's external API is only on Custom plans, so other plans use the browser.

When a purchase order from [RETAILER] arrives in [INBOX OR PORTAL], read every line (product, quantity, unit price, ship date) and create it in Odoo as a quotation for that customer. Compare each line's price to our agreed price list in [PRICE LIST] and flag any line that differs. Leave it as a quotation and send me a summary with the flagged lines. Never confirm the order yourself.

Replace [BRACKETS] with your details. {{double braces}} are fields your automation tool fills in.
