Adapt Odoo to your business

Odoo customization that keeps your upgrades simple

Fields, views, invoices and PDF reports, approval workflows, access rights: we customize Odoo to the way you work, staying as close as possible to the standard so that every new version stays easy to install.

  • Community and Enterprise
  • Standard code never modified

What we adapt

What we customize in Odoo

The most frequent requests, across all applications: sales, purchasing, inventory, accounting, website.

Fields and forms

Add the information specific to your business where your teams already enter data, with no extra screen.

Views and dashboards

Lists, kanban views, filters and dashboards organised around what each team actually looks at.

PDF reports and emails

Quotations, invoices, delivery slips and emails in your own style, with the mentions you need.

Workflows and approvals

Approval circuits, mandatory steps, checks before validation: your rules enforced by Odoo.

Access rights

Everyone sees and edits what concerns them: groups and rules by company, team or user.

Automated actions

Reminders, assignments, status changes: repetitive tasks triggered by Odoo at the right time.

Documents

Customizing Odoo invoices, quotes and delivery slips

The documents your customers receive are often the first thing to customize. What we adapt most often:

  • Logo, colours, fonts and footer per company.
  • Legal mentions: VAT and company numbers, late payment penalties, terms and conditions.
  • Extra columns and fields: lot, origin, weight, photo, customer reference.
  • Documents in the language of each customer.
  • Email templates sent with each document.
E-invoicing in Odoo: what to configure
The right tool

Configuration, Odoo Studio or module: how to choose?

We always start from what Odoo can already do, and we tell you honestly which tool fits your need.

Configuration

What Odoo already offers in its settings.

  • No code, nothing to maintain.
  • Always the first option.
  • Limited to what the publisher planned.

Odoo Studio

Simple fields, views and reports, created from the interface.

  • Quick for a simple need.
  • Can be changed by a trained user.
  • Only available with Odoo Enterprise.
  • Harder to follow and migrate as additions pile up.

Customization module

Your adaptations grouped in a dedicated module, written by our developers.

  • Works on Community and Enterprise.
  • Versioned, documented and tested at every migration.
  • Every change needs a developer.
By application

Examples of Odoo customizations by application

Small adaptations that save your teams time every day.

Sales

Quote templates, margin control before confirmation, discounts approved by a manager.

Purchasing

Approval above an amount, supplier references and conditions shown on the order.

Inventory

Extra fields on lots and locations, delivery slips with your own mentions.

Accounting

Invoice layout, legal mentions, analytic rules applied automatically.

CRM

Pipeline stages, qualification fields and automatic assignment of leads.

Website and e-commerce

Product pages, checkout steps and customer portal adapted to your offer.

Our principle

Customize Odoo without distorting it

A badly made customization costs a lot on migration day. We make sure your adaptations follow Odoo from one version to the next.

  • We extend Odoo, we never change its standard code.
  • All your customizations are grouped in a dedicated module, documented and versioned.
  • Every adaptation is tested on a copy of your database before production.
  • During a version migration, your customizations are checked one by one.

Our method

How an Odoo customization project runs

Four steps, from the first discussion to go-live.

  1. Listening to your needs

    You show us how you work and what you are missing in Odoo.

  2. Proposal

    The solution closest to standard Odoo, with an estimate of the time needed.

  3. Development and tests

    We build it on a test database; you validate it with your own data.

  4. Go-live

    Installed on your database, then followed up to adjust what real use reveals.

Billing

Two ways of working with us

Package of hours

For adaptations along the way: you book a volume of hours and send us your requests as they come.

Fixed-price project

For a defined set of customizations: you describe your requirements and we prepare a quote based on these specifications.

Frequently asked questions about Odoo customization

Can Odoo Community be customized?

Yes. Odoo Studio is only available with Enterprise, but every customization can be built as a module, on Community as well as on Enterprise.

Is Odoo Studio enough to customize Odoo?

For a few fields, a view or a simple report, yes. When additions pile up or touch business logic, a customization module is easier to maintain and migrate.

Our article about Odoo Studio

Can the invoice layout be changed in Odoo?

Yes. Logo, colours and footer are set in the document layout settings. For extra columns, specific mentions or a completely different layout, the QWeb report is adapted in a module.

How do you add a field in Odoo?

With Studio on Enterprise, or in a customization module on both editions. The module also lets the field be computed, checked or shown on documents and reports.

What is the difference between customization and development?

Customization adapts what Odoo already does: fields, views, documents, rules. Development creates what does not exist: a new application, an integration, a complex calculation.

Odoo development

Will my customizations survive an upgrade?

That is our priority: we extend Odoo without changing its standard code, and every customization is checked during version migrations.

Odoo migration

Can you take over customizations made by another provider?

Yes. We start with an audit of the existing modules, then tell you what to keep, fix or replace with standard Odoo.

How much does a customization cost?

It depends on the need. For small adaptations along the way, a package of hours; for a defined set, a fixed-price quote based on your requirements.
