Tickets linked to Odoo, replies held for approval
FixControl creates and links tickets in Odoo Helpdesk and reads their stage back, so the helpdesk stays the system of record for the conversation with a customer of your organization. A reply to that customer is drafted by AI and held until someone on your team approves it — only then is it posted as a customer-visible chatter message.
What the Odoo Helpdesk connection covers
Ticket create and link
An approved FixControl issue becomes an Odoo ticket: title as the ticket name, body as the description, priority mapped onto Odoo’s own 0–3 scale, and the default helpdesk team when one is configured. The issue key travels in the description; the issue keeps the ticket id and a deep link.
Stage read back, never guessed
Odoo stages are free-form per helpdesk team, so FixControl reads the ticket’s stage back from Odoo instead of assuming a name. The stage a resolve should move a ticket to is one you name yourself; with none configured, nothing is pushed.
Approved customer replies
Resolving an issue can queue a reply draft in the review queue. A person approves it, and only then is it posted as a customer-visible chatter message — which Odoo mails to the ticket’s followers. Reject or escalate posts nothing.
Internal progress notes
Engineering progress — a patch ready, a pull request opened — can be posted as internal chatter notes on the linked ticket. For agents and engineers only, never in the customer-facing thread.
Settled tickets as evidence
Triage pulls a scoped set of related settled tickets, each with why it matched and a trust score, to weigh rather than to trust blindly. Only customer-visible messages authored by the team can count as a resolution; internal notes are excluded, fail-closed.
Inbound webhook
An Odoo automation rule can notify FixControl that a ticket changed. The notification is a trigger, not the truth: FixControl reads the authoritative stage back over the API before it acts on it.
Which Odoo paths are working, shown per path
Creating a ticket, posting a customer reply, writing an internal note and pushing a stage are separate write paths with separate requirements, and each records its own health. A working ticket create can never disguise a broken reply path behind one connected badge.
Reads tickets, their stage and their chatter within the linked project, to build support context and answer questions.
Creates and links tickets under the configured API key. A helpdesk team bound to a project routes incoming tickets deterministically — FixControl never guesses a project.
Off by default and switched on per organization; even then the draft is held until a person approves it. Without that recorded approval nothing is posted.
Off by default. Where enabled, progress is posted as internal chatter for agents and engineers — one-way, and never as a customer-visible message.
Off by default and only towards the stage you name. Because Odoo stages are free-form per team, the target is an explicit choice; a ticket support already settled is left alone.
Not part of the connection. Odoo tags are records that must already exist, so FixControl labels do not become Odoo tags; harvesting a knowledge base is a Freshdesk capability, not an Odoo one.
A notification is never the source of truth
