What we build and improve
When Odoo falls short, teams often rely on manual work or other tools. We add the functionality you need and improve existing custom solutions.
Custom Modules and Business Logic
We build modules and extensions for approval workflows, calculations, and automated actions. We design data models and implement business rules based on agreed requirements.
OWL Interfaces and Odoo Views
We build OWL components, interactive tables, forms, list views, and dashboards. We add dynamic filters, calculations, and access to related data within the same workflow.
Code Review and Refactoring
We review and refactor existing modules, remove outdated code, and fix issues. We help extend solutions built by your team or another provider.
Module Migration to New Odoo Versions
We port custom modules to your target Odoo version. We check dependencies, compatibility, and related workflows so the features you rely on still work after the upgrade.
Customer and Employee Portals
We build portals for accessing documents, viewing orders, and submitting leave requests. Access rules define which records users can see and what actions they can take.
Performance Optimization
We investigate slow queries, database locks, and operations that put a heavy load on Odoo. We run long tasks in the background so users can keep working. We’ve used Redis to route high volumes of incoming leads.
Custom Connectors and Background Processing
We build APIs and connectors for websites, apps, and messaging platforms. We handle webhooks and files, adding background processing, duplicate prevention, retries, and error logging as needed.
Reports and Business Documents
We create custom QWeb PDF documents, Excel exports, and operational reports. We tailor the content and layout to the needs of your users, customers, or employees.
Examples of our Odoo development work
Our solutions support sales, ecommerce, and HR workflows. These examples show the challenges we addressed and the outcomes for the business.
AI-powered tender monitoring & analysis
The sales team needed to reduce manual tender searches and lengthy document reviews. In Odoo 18, we built Prozorro and SmartTender monitoring, AI document processing, and structured CRM record creation.
Custom OWL tables let users filter and review tenders. Background data extraction and duplicate checks help prevent repeated messages and records.
Result:
Initial tender analysis takes 80% less time. Tender selection and CRM lead creation are automated.

High-volume lead routing with Redis
During peak demand, PostgreSQL row locks delayed lead routing to managers. The interface stalled and background jobs timed out.
We built a Redis middleware layer with five independent memory pools and Pub/Sub messaging. Manager workload calculations and lead routing moved to in-memory processing.
Result:
Reduced PostgreSQL load and lead routing without database locking. Manager workload calculations now take milliseconds rather than seconds.

Porting ecommerce custom code from Odoo 10 to 18
An ecommerce business needed to update its Odoo 10 custom functionality, speed up order synchronization, and reduce manual work in shipping and payment processing. We refactored custom models for Odoo 18 and replaced outdated shipping and banking connectors.
The Magento 2 integration now synchronizes product catalogs, stock levels, and orders in batches. We also migrated historical orders and customer records, verifying their links in a test environment before deployment.
Result:
An automated workflow from online orders and stock reservation to shipping document creation and matching payments to invoices.

Employee self-service portal for a Swiss company
The company needed a secure way for employees to access payroll documents and handle routine HR requests. We built custom portal modules on Odoo.sh where employees can check their leave balances, submit leave requests, and download PDF payslips.
Attendance data from biometric terminals is imported automatically through scheduled SFTP transfers. Record-level access rules restrict access to personal records and payroll documents according to each employee’s permissions.
Result:
Employees access their documents and submit requests through a dedicated portal connected to Odoo.

How we choose the right approach
We first determine which approach will deliver the required functionality. For existing customizations, we also assess the code and any Odoo Studio changes.
Odoo configuration
We use standard features, configuration, or suitable Odoo Studio changes whenever they can deliver the required result.
Off-the-shelf modules
We review Odoo Apps solutions for functional fit and compatibility with your Odoo version and environment.
Custom development
We build new functionality when standard features or off-the-shelf modules cannot provide the required logic, calculations, or interface behavior.
Existing code enhancement
We review existing functionality first, identifying what can be reused and what needs fixing, extending, or refactoring.

Our approach to custom Odoo development
We start with your system requirements and finish by handing over tested functionality, source code, and documentation.
1
Requirements & preliminary estimate
We discuss your business needs, current environment, and expected outcome. A preliminary effort or budget range usually follows one to three introductory meetings. These meetings are free.
2
Solution design & acceptance criteria
We identify affected modules, data, interfaces, and dependencies. The specification defines expected behavior and acceptance criteria. If deeper technical discovery is needed, we agree on its scope and cost upfront.
3
Development & code review
We use Git for version control. Before merging changes, we review the implementation, access rules, and dependencies. Custom code is kept separate from third-party modules.
4
Testing & user acceptance
We test functionality and affected workflows in a test environment. Your team checks the agreed acceptance criteria before approving release.
5
Deployment & handover
We coordinate deployment with those responsible for your environment, agreeing on release, backup, and rollback responsibilities for each change. We hand over the code and deployment documentation needed to maintain the new functionality.
Testing before production deployment
Before release, we test new functionality and its interaction with existing Odoo workflows. The scope of testing depends on the changes and their impact on your system.
Automated testing
Automated tests cover critical calculations and business rules. Depending on the change, we also test module interactions, external service failures, existing functionality, and user journeys in the browser.
Code review
The developer tests new functionality. Before changes are merged, the lead developer reviews access rights, module dependencies, and compliance with Odoo development guidelines.
Staging environment
We test on a separate copy of your system with sensitive data anonymized. Email, payments, and shipping integrations are disabled or switched to test mode to avoid affecting live operations.
User acceptance testing
Your team validates the result against the agreed specification. Once the changes meet the requirements, you approve deployment.
What you receive after development
Source code & documentation for your team
You receive the agreed Odoo functionality and access to the Git repository or a source code archive. Deliverables also include a README, configuration details, deployment requirements and instructions, and automated tests for critical functionality. These materials help your team or another provider maintain and extend the solution.
Custom code developed specifically for your project belongs to you under the agreed terms. Purchased modules and third-party components are kept separate and retain their original licenses.
Deployment & ongoing support
If your team manages the server, we agree on deployment responsibilities: Codoo ERP handles the custom modules and installation instructions, while your administrator handles the server and backups. Our DevOps engineer can assist with critical releases within the agreed scope.
You have one month from delivery to test the functionality. We fix deviations from the agreed specification reported within this period at no additional charge. Later correction requests are billed separately. New requirements are agreed and estimated separately.
Odoo technologies & expertise at Codoo ERP
We work with Odoo Community and Enterprise, with hands-on experience in versions 10–18. Odoo 19 is part of our research and experimental development (R&D).
We manage model-level permissions and record-level access. We review access rules in code and portals, including those protecting confidential employee documents.
We build data relationships and custom Odoo business methods. Using the ORM, we implement computed fields, automatic recalculation of dependent values, and business-rule validation.
We build reactive OWL components that update data and totals without reloading the page. We customize XML views and generate printable documents with QWeb templates.
We connect external AI models to Odoo workflows via APIs. Our experience includes tender document and CV analysis using OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini services.
We analyze database queries and locks during concurrent processing. We eliminate redundant database calls, including N+1 queries, where one operation triggers multiple individual queries.
We use OCA queue_job for long-running background tasks and retries after failures. Our experience includes session caching, user state storage, and event messaging through Redis Pub/Sub.
We use REST APIs, webhooks, and scheduled file exchange. Idempotency keys protect against duplicate request processing. Sensitive data is masked in error logs.
We work with Odoo.sh, Linux/VPS, Docker deployments, and automated test execution through CI/CD. Our DevOps engineer can support critical releases within the agreed scope.
What affects Odoo development costs
Cost depends on the required changes, your existing system, and the testing needed before deployment.
Testing scope
We assess the scenarios needed to validate calculations, permissions, module interactions, and external services. Regression checks help preserve existing functionality and related business processes.

What our clients say
Odoo development: frequently asked questions
Clear answers to the most common questions about Odoo development
Configuration is enough when Odoo already provides the required functionality and it can be adapted without coding. Examples include changing sales stages or user access permissions.
Custom development is needed when configuration and off-the-shelf modules cannot meet your requirements, such as a custom calculation or a dedicated workspace. If you are planning a full ERP rollout from scratch, explore Odoo Implementation.
We work with Community and Enterprise and have hands-on experience with Odoo 10–18. Our Odoo 19 work is part of R&D. We check the target version, dependencies, and hosting for each project.
Learn about the editions in our Odoo Community vs Enterprise comparison.
Yes. We can review and extend existing modules, investigate bugs, and refactor problematic code. We first assess the structure of your modules and customizations to define a realistic scope of work.
Describe how Odoo works today, what needs to change, and the outcome you expect. Helpful inputs include:
- Your Odoo version, edition (Community or Enterprise), and hosting.
- Affected modules, departments, and external services.
- Screenshots, a short screen recording, sample documents, or calculation rules.
- Details of existing custom modules and Odoo Studio changes.
We may need access to the code or a test environment if errors, compatibility, or performance cannot be assessed from descriptions and examples alone.
Introductory meetings used to prepare a preliminary estimate are free. Technical discovery, specification work, configuration, and development are billed separately. The preliminary proposal provides an indicative cost range.
We first prepare and agree on a specification, billed for the time spent. We then agree on a fixed price and delivery timeline before development begins. If new requirements arise, gathering and analysis are billed for actual time spent, and implementation is estimated separately.
Custom modules can run on Odoo.sh or in a self-hosted environment. We work with Linux/VPS and Docker. Odoo Online does not support custom Python modules. We check compatibility with your Odoo version, hosting, and dependencies before development.
Custom modules may need porting and testing for the target version. We have experience adapting existing functionality and validating related data and workflows before upgrading the production system.
You have one month from delivery to test the functionality. We fix deviations from the agreed specification reported within that period at no additional charge. Correction requests received after this period are billed separately.
Yes. We can take on individual tasks, deliver fixed-scope development projects, or provide ongoing development, including a dedicated developer. We agree on scope and responsibilities as part of the engagement.
