Our e-commerce connectors use background jobs to handle data synchronization between Odoo and your e-commerce platform (Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop or Magento 2). Each type of job is assigned a priority value, which determines the execution order in the queue.
This system ensures that time-sensitive operations (like order imports) are processed before less critical tasks (like exporting product information or images).
The table below lists all supported background job types, along with the Odoo model they belong to and their assigned priority. Higher priority jobs (with lower numbers) are processed first.
Use this information to understand how the connector schedules its tasks and how it reacts to incoming data from your store (including webhooks, imports, and exports).
