[18.0][IMP] excel_import_export: Support Updating Existing Data via Database ID Import

[xtanuiha]

Use Case

This feature is designed for procurement quotation scenarios involving a large number of products (e.g., over 100 items). Purchasing details can be exported to suppliers for price filling, and then re-imported to update the quotation for comparison.

Steps

• Define an export template that includes the ID field for each record.
• Set up an import template with .id in the ID column to leverage Odoo’s built‑in record‑matching mechanism.
• Import the supplier’s updated quotation file.
• Prices in the corresponding purchase quotation lines will be updated automatically.
