Italian e-invoicing software integrated in Odoo, SDI-compliant from issuance to long-term archiving.
Electra is Koratyn's e-invoicing solution for Italian SMEs: full management of the AR and AP cycle, digital signature, sending and receiving through the Italian Exchange System (SDI) and legal e-archiving. Developed by independent specialists with over 10 years of experience in administrative digitalization.
Who Electra is for (and when it becomes essential)
Electra is designed for Italian SMEs and for those who manage e-invoicing as part of their administrative and accounting flow, not as an isolated compliance task delegated to an external platform.
Roles and profiles
Italian SME owners and administrative leadership
Accounting managers handling AR and AP cycles with growing volumes
Administrative teams already working on Odoo who need native integration
Consultants and firms managing individual client companies on Odoo
When it becomes critical
When issuance, receipt and archiving live on separate, disconnected platforms
When SDI statuses (accepted, rejected, expired) aren't visible in real time
When supplier invoices arrive but don't automatically link to the accounting cycle
When volumes grow and month-end close becomes a race against the clock
Typical challenges
The problems Electra solves in the invoicing cycle
Three challenges that every Italian administrative manager recognizes — and how Electra turns them into an integrated, governable flow.
Double handling between invoicing and accounting
Invoices are issued on an external SaaS portal, then manually re-entered in accounting. Transcription errors, inconsistent data across platforms, painful month-end reconciliations. Time spent on copy-paste activities grows with volumes.
With Electra: invoicing and bookkeeping in the same system, data aligned in real time
Invoices rejected by SDI with zero visibility
The invoice is sent — but then what? Was it delivered? Rejected for a format error? Expired? Without an integrated system, every outcome requires a manual check on the Italian Revenue Agency portal or on the SDI provider.
With Electra: SDI statuses natively visible in Odoo, automatic notifications on outcomes
AP cycle: supplier invoices stuck in limbo
Supplier invoices arrive via SDI but the administrative manager has to download, classify and post them manually. Days pass between receipt and posting, and cash flow suffers. During peaks, the queue builds up.
With Electra: automatic receipt, assisted classification, integrated posting

The Koratyn Method
How we implement Electra in your organization
Five structured phases, from analysis of the current invoicing cycle to launch of the new flow integrated in Odoo.
01
Discovery and mapping
We analyze how you currently manage the AR and AP cycle, map existing tools and flows, identify pain points and integration opportunities.
02
Roadmap
We plan the transition to the new flow in controlled phases: configuration, parallel testing, switch to production, continuous optimization.
03
Configuration
We configure Odoo for the full cycle: master data, chart of accounts, SDI, digital signature, legal e-archiving, operating roles and workflow rules.
04
Training
We train the teams — administration, accounting, management control — with role-based, hands-on sessions and shared materials.
05
Go-live and improvement
We launch the system in production while monitoring SDI statuses in real time, measure operational effectiveness, apply progressive optimizations.
Independent specialists in e-invoicing integrated in Odoo
Electra is a product developed by Koratyn, an independent Italian specialist with over 10 years of experience in administrative digitalization 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 e-invoicing.
Native integration, not an add-on
Electra is not a connector between Odoo and an external service: it's e-invoicing designed inside Odoo. Invoices, accounting, master data and SDI statuses live in the same system, with no synchronizations or intermediate steps.
10+ years of experience
Over ten years of experience in administrative digitalization, accounting and document flows. We know how Italian SMEs really work and what makes Italian e-invoicing specific.
Regulatory updates included
Italian e-invoicing regulation evolves constantly. Ongoing support includes alignment of the system with Italian Revenue Agency updates and new SDI specifications.
Application scenarios
Three situations where Electra makes the difference
Typical operating situations we encounter in Italian SMEs — and how Electra brings them under control.
SMEs with external SaaS and separate ERP
The company uses a SaaS invoicing portal that barely talks to the ERP, and every month administration loses days reconciling the data. We configure Electra inside Odoo, with AR and AP cycles unified. Double handling disappears, month-end close becomes smooth.
Supplier invoices piling up in the queue
The firm receives 200 supplier invoices per month via SDI, but manual posting causes delays and impacts cash flow. We structure an automated AP cycle: SDI receipt, assisted classification, integrated posting. The backlog shrinks from weeks to days.
Invoices rejected by SDI with no one noticing
Invoices are sent but no one checks the outcomes, and weeks later it turns out some were rejected for XML errors. We implement automatic notifications on SDI statuses directly in Odoo. Every rejection becomes visible in real time and is handled immediately.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about e-invoicing with Electra
Clear answers to start with confidence.
Yes. Electra manages the entire Italian e-invoicing cycle: issuance and submission through the Italian Exchange System (SDI), receipt of supplier invoices, digital signature, compliant legal e-archiving for the 10 years required by regulation, and SDI status tracking (delivered, accepted, rejected, expired) — all natively integrated in Odoo.
Yes. Electra is designed natively for Odoo 18 and respects the platform's modular structure. It integrates with the standard Accounting, Sales and Purchase modules, keeping master data and the chart of accounts as the single source of truth. It does not require external integrations or synchronizations with third-party systems.
Yes. We start by analyzing the real flows and how you currently manage the AR and AP cycle. Electra is configured around your administrative process, integrating with the master data, chart of accounts and operational workflows already in place in Odoo. We don't impose a standard model — we adapt it to your reality.
Timelines vary based on project scope and current volumes. The rollout follows five phases: analysis, planning, configuration, training, go-live. For mid-sized organizations, activation is typically in the range of weeks. We work in controlled phases with an optional parallel testing period before the switch to production.
Training is geared to real operating roles — administration, accounting, management control — with hands-on sessions on concrete use cases and shared working materials. Go-live is guided and includes support during the first weeks of operation, with SDI status monitoring and assistance on the first real issuances and receipts.
Yes. Electra manages both cycles in a single integrated flow. The AR cycle includes invoice issuance, digital signature, SDI submission and status monitoring. The AP cycle includes automatic receipt of supplier invoices from SDI, assisted classification and integrated posting in Odoo. Both cycles are visible in the same dashboard.
Legal e-archiving is included in the service and meets Italian regulatory requirements: e-invoices are digitally retained for 10 years as required by tax regulation, in compliance with Italian Revenue Agency specifications. The archive is structured, searchable and always accessible directly from Odoo.
Electra is designed to manage the e-invoicing of a single company, and is the ideal choice for consultants, freelance accountants or small firms following a limited number of clients with dedicated Odoo installations. For structured accounting firms managing dozens of client companies, we assess the scope and specific needs together.
