Sync Reports & Logs

The Magento 2 Connector provides comprehensive reporting for all synchronization operations. Sync Reports and Mapping Reports give you full visibility into what was synced, when, and whether it succeeded or failed.


Sync Reports

Accessing Sync Reports

Navigate to Magento > Reports > Sync Reports to view the sync operation log.

Reports menu showing Sync Reports option

Sync Report List View

Magento Sync Reports list view

The Sync Reports list displays every synchronization operation with detailed metadata:

ColumnDescription
Created OnDate and time the sync operation started
Magento InstanceThe Magento instance that was synced
Sync TypeThe type of data synced (Order, Customer, Product, Category)
ModeHow the sync was triggered (Manual, Cron)
Source ActionThe technical action source (e.g., manual, cron_auto_scope)
Total RecordsTotal number of records processed in this sync
SuccessNumber of records successfully synced
ErrorsNumber of records that encountered errors
Start TimeExact start timestamp of the sync operation
End TimeExact end timestamp of the sync operation

Reading Sync Reports

Each row represents a single sync operation. Key things to look for:

  • Mode: Manual -- Indicates the sync was triggered by clicking a button (e.g., Sync Products).
  • Mode: Cron -- Indicates the sync was triggered by an automated cron job.
  • Errors > 0 -- Indicates some records failed to sync. Click the record for error details.
  • Total Records vs. Success -- If these numbers differ, some records were skipped or encountered issues.
info

Sync reports are retained indefinitely by default. You can archive old reports through Odoo's standard archival functionality.

Filtering and Searching

Use the search bar and filters to narrow down sync reports:

  • Filter by Sync Type to see only product, customer, or order syncs
  • Filter by Mode to distinguish manual vs. automated syncs
  • Filter by date range to investigate issues during a specific period
  • Sort by Errors to find problematic sync operations quickly

Mapping Reports

Accessing Mapping Reports

Navigate to Magento > Reports > Mapping Report to view field mapping operation logs.

Reports menu showing Mapping Report option

Mapping Report List View

Magento Mapping Report list view

The Mapping Report tracks individual field mapping test and sync operations:

ColumnDescription
InstanceThe Magento instance the mapping was tested against
Mapping TypeThe entity type (Product, Customer, Category)
DirectionData flow direction (Odoo to Magento, Magento to Odoo)
Source ActionThe action that triggered this report entry (e.g., test_mapping)
StatusResult of the operation (Success, Failed)
Record NameThe specific record that was tested or synced
Created OnDate and time of the operation

Using Mapping Reports

Mapping reports are especially useful for:

  • Verifying new mappings -- After creating a field mapping, use the Test button and check the mapping report for results.
  • Debugging sync issues -- If products sync but with incorrect field values, check the mapping report to identify which field mapping is misconfigured.
  • Audit trail -- Track all mapping operations for compliance and troubleshooting.
tip

After making changes to field mappings, run a test sync on a single record and check the Mapping Report to verify the mapping works correctly before running a full sync.

Best Practices

  1. Review daily -- Check sync reports each day to catch errors early.
  2. Set up alerts -- Use Odoo's automated actions to send email notifications when sync errors exceed a threshold.
  3. Archive periodically -- Archive old sync reports to keep the list manageable.
  4. Investigate errors promptly -- A small number of errors can cascade into larger data inconsistencies if left unaddressed.
