Does Electra cover sending, receiving and legally compliant archiving?

Yes. Electra manages the entire cycle: issuing and sending via SDI, receiving supplier invoices, digital signature, legally compliant 10-year archiving and SDI status traceability, all directly integrated in Odoo.

Is Electra compatible with Odoo 18?

Yes. Electra is natively designed for Odoo 18 and integrates with the standard accounting, sales and purchasing modules, keeping master data and the chart of accounts as a single source of truth.

Does it integrate with the processes and tools we already use?

Yes. We start from an analysis of your real flows. Electra is configured around your administrative process, integrating with existing master data, chart of accounts and workflows in Odoo.

How long does it take to go live with Electra?

Timelines vary depending on scope. For medium-sized organisations, activation is typically a matter of weeks. We work in controlled phases with a possible parallel testing period before switching to production.

Does Electra handle both the active and the passive cycle?

Yes. The active cycle includes invoice issuing, digital signature, SDI submission and status monitoring. The passive cycle includes automatic receipt of supplier invoices from SDI, assisted classification and integrated posting in Odoo.

How does long-term archiving work with Electra?

Long-term archiving is included and complies with Italian regulatory requirements: invoices are stored digitally for 10 years, in accordance with Italian Revenue Agency specifications. The archive is structured, searchable and accessible directly from Odoo.

Is Electra suitable for accountants and firms managing multiple clients?

Electra is designed to manage invoicing for a single company, making it ideal for consultants and small firms managing a limited number of clients with dedicated Odoo installations.

How do you handle training and operational onboarding?

Training is oriented to real operational roles with hands-on sessions and shared materials. The go-live includes support during the first weeks of operation, with SDI status monitoring and assistance on the first real submissions and receipts.

Who it's aimed at

Who Electra is for (and in which contexts it becomes essential)

Electra is designed for Italian SMEs and for those who manage electronic invoicing as part of the administrative and accounting flow, not as an isolated obligation delegated to an external platform.

Business profiles and roles

Owners of Italian SMEs and administrative management
Accounting managers handling the active and passive cycle with growing volumes
Administrative teams working in Odoo looking for native integration
Consultants and firms managing individual client companies on Odoo

Situations where it becomes decisive

When issuing, receiving and archiving happen on separate, non-integrated platforms
When SDI statuses (accepted, rejected, lapsed) are not visible in real time
When supplier invoices arrive but don't link automatically to the accounting cycle
When volumes grow and the monthly close becomes a race against time

Typical issues

The problems Electra solves in the invoicing cycle

Three issues every Italian administrative manager will recognise — and how Electra transforms them into an integrated, governable flow.

Double management of invoices and accounting

Invoices are issued on an external SaaS portal, then manually re-entered into the accounting system. Transcription errors, inconsistent data between platforms, painful reconciliations at month end.

With Electra: issuing and posting in the same system, data aligned in real time

SDI-rejected invoices and zero visibility

The invoice is sent — but then what? Was it delivered? Was it rejected for a format error? Without an integrated system, every outcome requires a manual check on the Revenue Agency portal.

With Electra: SDI statuses visible natively in Odoo, automatic notifications on outcomes

Passive cycle: supplier invoices left pending

Supplier invoices arrive via SDI but the administrator must manually download, classify and post them. Days pass between receipt and posting, and cash flow suffers as a result.

With Electra: automatic receipt, assisted classification, integrated posting

Koratyn Method

How we implement Electra in your organisation

Five structured phases, from analysing the current invoice cycle to launching the new integrated flow in Odoo.

Discovery and mapping

We analyse how you currently manage the active and passive cycle, map existing tools and flows, and identify critical points and integration opportunities.

Roadmap

We plan the transition to the new flow in controlled phases: configuration, parallel testing, switch to production, continuous optimisation.

Configuration

We configure Odoo for the full cycle: master data, chart of accounts, SDI, digital signature, long-term archiving, operational roles and workflow rules.

Training

We train the teams — administration, accounting, management control — with role-oriented operational sessions and shared materials.

Go-live and improvement

We activate the system in production while monitoring SDI statuses in real time, measure operational effectiveness and apply progressive optimisations.

Why Koratyn

Independent specialists in electronic invoicing integrated in Odoo

Electra is a product developed by Koratyn, an independent Italian specialist with over 10 years of experience in administrative digitalisation and accounting processes.

Independent specialists

We don't resell third-party SaaS. We are independent Italian specialists who design Electra directly on Odoo, with direct knowledge of accounting processes and Italian electronic invoicing.

Native integration, not an add-on

Electra is not a connector between Odoo and an external service: it is electronic invoicing designed inside Odoo. Invoices, accounting, master data and SDI statuses all live in the same system.

10+ years of experience

Over ten years of experience in administrative digitalisation, accounting and documentary flows. We know the specifics of Italian electronic invoicing inside out.

Regulatory updates included

Italian electronic invoicing regulations evolve constantly. Ongoing support includes alignment with Revenue Agency updates and new SDI specifications.

Application scenarios

Three situations where Electra makes the difference

Typical operational situations we encounter in Italian SMEs — and how Electra brings them under control.

SME with external SaaS and a separate management system

The company uses an invoicing SaaS portal that barely talks to the ERP, and every month the admin team loses days reconciling data. We configure Electra inside Odoo, with the active and passive cycle unified.

Supplier invoices piling up in the queue

The firm receives 200 supplier invoices per month via SDI, but manual posting creates delays and impacts cash flow. We build the automated passive cycle: SDI receipt, assisted classification, integrated posting.

SDI-rejected invoices that nobody notices

Invoices are sent but nobody checks the outcomes, and weeks later it turns out some were rejected. We implement automatic notifications on SDI statuses directly in Odoo.
