Your Foodics POS, Posting Straight to Odoo
Foodics is a cloud POS used widely across Saudi restaurants, cafés, and F&B outlets. It runs the front line well — orders, tables, payments — but when it runs separately from accounting, the back office pays for it: someone posts a daily sales summary into the books by hand, food cost is estimated rather than measured, inventory consumed by the kitchen is reconciled long after the fact, and a multi-branch operator stitches together a separate report from every outlet to see how the business actually did. The numbers that matter most in F&B — food cost and profit per outlet — arrive late and approximate.
The integration connects Foodics directly to Odoo so the day's trading posts itself. Sales transactions flow from Foodics into Odoo Accounting as journal entries, broken down by payment method, with a ZATCA-aligned record; inventory consumption flows to Odoo Inventory using the recipe — selling a dish depletes its ingredients automatically, so stock reflects what the kitchen actually used; and menu items, products, and pricing sync between Odoo and Foodics so the till and the books describe the same catalogue. The sync is bidirectional: Odoo sends product, recipe, and price updates to Foodics, and Foodics sends sales, payments, and consumption back to Odoo — which is what makes real-time food cost and profitability reporting possible inside the ERP.
For a Saudi F&B operator the compliance and reporting wins land together. Each outlet's sales generate ZATCA-aligned records in Odoo Accounting with no separate upload; settlement is in SAR and reconciles by payment method against the day's takings; Arabic menu and item names carry correctly between Foodics and Odoo; and a multi-branch group maps each outlet to the correct Odoo company so the books and the food-cost reporting are clean per branch. The operator keeps Foodics on the counter and gains a full accounting and inventory back office in Odoo.
A café group in Jeddah running five outlets on Foodics used to wait until the end of each month to post sales, estimate food cost from supplier invoices, and assemble five separate outlet reports into a picture of the business. After iWesabe connected Foodics to Odoo, daily sales now post as ZATCA-aligned journals per outlet, ingredient consumption depletes Odoo Inventory as dishes sell, and food cost and profit per branch are visible in real time. Month-end stopped being a reconstruction exercise and became a review.
What the Foodics–Odoo Connector Delivers
Daily Sales Post to Odoo Accounting
Sales transactions flow from Foodics into Odoo Accounting as journal entries automatically, with a ZATCA-aligned record for each outlet's trading. The daily sales summary that someone used to post by hand is created from the actual transactions — no spreadsheet, no manual journal.
Recipe-Based Inventory Consumption
Selling a dish depletes its ingredients in Odoo Inventory using the recipe behind it, so stock reflects what the kitchen actually consumed rather than a periodic count. This is what turns food cost from an end-of-month estimate into a measured, live figure.
Menu & Product Sync
Menu items, products, and recipes maintained in Odoo sync to Foodics, and the till and the books describe the same catalogue. Update a price or a recipe once in Odoo and the change reaches the counter — no editing the menu separately in two systems.
Real-Time Food Cost & Profitability
Because sales and recipe-based consumption both post to Odoo as they happen, cost of goods and margin are visible per dish and per outlet in real time. Operators see which items and which branches actually make money without waiting for a month-end reconstruction.
Payment-Method Breakdown & Reconciliation
Each day's takings post split by payment method — cash, card, and wallet — so Odoo Accounting reconciles the settlement against the takings automatically. Discrepancies surface as exceptions to review rather than hiding inside a single lump sum.
Multi-Branch Consolidation
Each Foodics outlet maps to the correct Odoo company, so a multi-branch group's sales, inventory, and food cost stay clean per branch while consolidating into one set of books. One connector covers the whole estate instead of a separate process per outlet.
Why Saudi F&B Operators Run Foodics on Odoo
- ZATCA-aligned records — each outlet's daily sales post to Odoo Accounting as compliant journals with no separate upload, keeping every branch's takings reportable in-platform
- SAR settlement by payment method — cash, card, and wallet takings reconcile against the day's sales in Odoo automatically, removing the manual matching of POS totals to bank deposits
- Measured food cost, not estimated — recipe-based consumption posts to Odoo Inventory as dishes sell, so food cost and margin per outlet are live figures rather than month-end guesses
- Arabic menu and item data — Arabic dish and product names carry correctly between Foodics and Odoo, so receipts, reports, and journals read properly for Saudi operations
- Multi-branch books that stay clean — each outlet maps to the correct Odoo company, so a Saudi F&B group's accounting and food-cost reporting are accurate per branch and consolidated overall

Business Outcomes After Go-Live
No more manual daily journals
The daily sales summary stops being posted by hand. Foodics sales post to Odoo Accounting as journals automatically, so the books keep pace with trading without anyone keying yesterday's takings every morning.
Food cost becomes a measured number
Recipe-based consumption means stock depletes as dishes sell, turning food cost from an end-of-month estimate into a live figure. Operators can act on margin during the month instead of discovering it after.
Real-time profitability per outlet
Sales and cost post as they happen, so profit per dish and per branch is visible now — not after a month-end reconstruction. Underperforming items and outlets surface early enough to do something about them.
Clean reconciliation by payment method
Takings post split by cash, card, and wallet, so Odoo reconciles settlement against sales automatically and discrepancies show up as exceptions rather than disappearing into a daily lump sum.
One catalogue across till and books
Menus, products, and recipes are managed in Odoo and synced to Foodics, so a price or recipe change is made once and reaches the counter. The till and the accounts never describe different catalogues.
Multi-branch without multi-process
Every outlet feeds the same Odoo logic with its sales mapped to the right company, so a growing F&B group adds branches without adding a separate month-end process for each one.
Foodics Integration Steps with iWesabe

Foodics–Odoo Questions from Saudi Operators
It connects your Foodics POS to Odoo so trading posts to your accounts automatically. Daily sales become ZATCA-aligned Odoo journals split by payment method, recipe-based consumption depletes Odoo Inventory as dishes sell, and menu and pricing sync between Odoo and Foodics. The result is real-time food cost and profitability in Odoo with no manual daily journal and no separate food-cost spreadsheet.
Up to four: Odoo Point of Sale and Accounting receive the sales and journals, Odoo Inventory handles recipe-based consumption and stock, and Odoo Purchase supports ingredient replenishment. Because these share one Odoo database, a sale on Foodics flows to a journal and a stock depletion with no export between systems.
Yes — it is bidirectional. Sales, payments, and consumption flow from Foodics into Odoo as they happen, and product, recipe, and pricing updates flow from Odoo back to Foodics. The frequency per data type is configurable during setup, so sales can post in real time while, for example, a full menu update runs on a schedule.
Each menu item is linked to its recipe, so selling a dish depletes its ingredients in Odoo Inventory automatically. Because consumption posts as sales happen, cost of goods and margin are measured continuously rather than estimated at month-end — giving live food cost and profitability per dish and per outlet.
Each outlet's sales post to Odoo Accounting as ZATCA-aligned records, with the simplified e-invoice and QR code for B2C receipts handled in-platform and reported on the regulated cycle. Everything runs inside Odoo, so there is no separate upload to the ZATCA portal for the day's trading.
The connection uses Foodics' official API access, configured by iWesabe with credentials held securely in the Odoo configuration rather than shared or hard-coded. Sync events are logged with timestamps for audit, and discrepancies or unmatched records are flagged for review rather than overwriting data silently.
A single outlet with a clean menu and recipe setup is typically live within a few working days. Multi-branch operations with detailed recipe costing and ZATCA configuration usually take one to two weeks. iWesabe runs test transactions and a first month-end close jointly with your team before handover.
