Zalo + Sales for Odoo
Sell directly from Zalo chat
Customer asks about a product on Zalo? Search it, build a cart, create a quotation, and send the confirmation — all without leaving the conversation. The complete Zalo sales workflow inside the system.
The gap between Zalo and your sales process
Customers buy through chat. But your sales system doesn't know about it — and your chat doesn't know about your products.
Customer asks for a price on Zalo. Staff opens the system, looks up the product, copies the price, switches back to Zalo, types it out. Repeat for every item, every customer, every day.
Multiple customers ask at once. By the time your sales rep finishes creating a quotation in the system and comes back to Zalo, the customer has already messaged a competitor.
A customer agreed to buy in a Zalo conversation — but which order was it? Which quotation? There's no trail from what was discussed to what was recorded in the system.
Create the quotation in the system, export PDF, open Zalo, attach, send. For payment reminders, same thing. With dozens of customers a day, this does not scale.
Chat → Cart → Order → Send
Everything happens inside one Discuss window. No tab switching, no copy-paste, no context lost.
A customer asks about a product on Zalo. The message appears in the system instantly.
Open the cart panel, search products, adjust quantities and prices. All within the same conversation window.
One click creates a quotation or confirmed sale order — automatically linked to this customer and conversation.
Preview the message, pick a template, and send the order confirmation to the customer on Zalo. Done.
Full Zalo sales experience
This module includes the complete Zalo integration: messaging, contact sync, and the sales workflow. One install, everything works.
Cart panel in Discuss
A cart icon appears on every Zalo conversation. Click to open a side panel where you can search products, set quantities and prices, and create an order — without leaving the chat.
Quotations & sale orders
Create either a draft quotation or a confirmed sale order from the cart. The order is linked to both the customer and the Zalo conversation for full traceability.
Ready-made templates
4 pre-built Zalo notification templates: Quotation sent, Order confirmed, Payment received, and Order cancelled. Preview before sending, edit parameters inline.
Zalo chat in Discuss
All Zalo OA conversations appear in the system. Reply with text, images, stickers, and file attachments — your team works from one interface.
Contact sync
Zalo followers are matched to contacts automatically. Import in bulk and always know which customer you are chatting with.
Access control
Control who can view Zalo conversations and create orders. Each company's data is kept separate for multi-company environments.
Benefits
Turn every Zalo conversation into a potential sale — with the speed customers expect.
Close deals faster
Customer asks, you quote, they confirm — all in one conversation. No tab switching, no waiting, no "I'll send you the quotation later".
Every chat leads to a record
Orders are linked to the Zalo conversation that created them. Managers can trace any sale back to the exact chat where it started.
Professional customer experience
Customers receive polished order confirmations and payment notifications on Zalo — not screenshots or plain text messages.
Sales team works in one place
Chat, product lookup, order creation, and notification sending — all inside Discuss. No training on separate tools, no forgotten follow-ups.
