Guide to Remove Shopify Connector Modules in Odoo

Purpose

This guide outlines the steps required to safely uninstall Shopify-related modules from an Odoo environment. The goal is to remove unneeded Shopify integration while preserving all core system functionality.

Modules to Remove

  1. shopify_cnf – CNF extension for Shopify
  2. shopify_ept – Main Shopify connector
  3. common_connector_library – Shared connector library (optional)
  4. auto_invoice_workflow_ept – Auto invoice workflow (optional)

Impact Analysis

shopify_cnf

  • Depends on: shopify_ept, emipro_theme_base
  • Function: Adds brand support to Shopify sync
  • Impact: Only affects Shopify-specific product integration

shopify_ept

  • Depends on: common_connector_library, auto_invoice_workflow_ept
  • Function: Main connector for Shopify (products, orders, dashboards)
  • Impact: Removes all Shopify sync and related dashboards

common_connector_library

  • Used by: shopify_ept only
  • Function: Common functions for e-commerce connectors
  • Impact: Product brand logic, connector logging, and order creation helpers

auto_invoice_workflow_ept

  • Used by: shopify_ept only
  • Function: Defines automatic sale workflow/invoicing
  • Impact: Auto-order processing and invoice flows

External References

  • Minor mention in account_sage_reports (likely just a variable/comment)
