Develop a custom Odoo module

When Odoo does not quite do what your business needs, a custom module bridges the gap, without touching Odoo’s own code.

What it covers

  • New fields, screens and reports

  • Automations: computations, checks, scheduled actions

  • The rules specific to your business

  • Taking over or fixing existing custom modules

How I go about it

  1. Understand the need

    What you do today, what gets in the way, and what Odoo or an OCA module already covers: the best module is often the one that does not have to be written.

  2. Split it up

    One need, one module, with declared dependencies: each piece can be added, removed and upgraded without touching the others.

  3. Develop and test

    Following OCA conventions, with automated tests run again on every change.

  4. Deliver

    The code in your repository, its documentation, and the installation on your instance.

What you receive

  • The modules and their source code, in your repository
  • Their automated tests
  • User documentation
  • The time spent, tracked task by task

Frequently asked questions

Does a custom module make upgrades harder?

Not if it is written for them: a module that does one thing, declares its dependencies and has its tests moves from one version to the next without surprises. That is the whole difference with a change made directly in Odoo’s code.

Do I need Odoo Enterprise?

No. A module can target Odoo Community as well as Enterprise: it only relies on what is installed on your side.

Who owns the code?

It is delivered in your repository: you can have it developed further by anyone you like.

A module to create or take over?

Describe it in a few lines: I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Your Odoo version and its hosting, what you want to achieve and by when, what already exists.
