Odoo 10 Implementation Cookbook

Quickstart Implementation Methodology

In this chapter, we will cover the following recipes:

  • Installing a new application and enabling additional features
  • Implementing Odoo CRM using the Odoo implementation tool
  • Installing Odoo studio and adding new fields to a view
  • Creating a new business application using Odoo studio
  • Exporting and importing a custom application

Introduction

Commonly, there are two methodologies popular for the implementation of Odoo business applications. Large scale project implementation methodology is a big-bang approach followed by the Odoo official partner network, and the Quickstart implementation is offered by the Odoo team and some partners on the cloud platform.

Large scale projects are a solution to specific business needs and provide customization, a long sales cycle, and an implementation cycle, as well.

The Quickstart approach is useful for small and medium sized companies who would like to adapt a standard business process. This is available in Odoo, out-of-the-box, to help you to go live as quickly as possible. According to the Odoo team, a project can go live in 100 hours after implementing four major applications: Sales, Purchasing, Stocks, and Accounting.

Odoo offers this service under the name ...

Installing a new application and enabling additional features

Odoo is a suite of business applications. The software is designed with a perfect modular approach and allows the user to start with one application and keep on adding new applications when the business grows. All the applications are installed later and will be integrated by default.

Odoo focuses on a great user experience for the first run, and it keeps the business flow as simple as possible. A user can start using it confidently, but on the first run, you may not get all the features; however, additional features can be activated once you install the new application.

Let's try to install the Sales app and enable a pricelist for a product based on specific customer segments.

Getting ready

...

Implementing Odoo CRM using the Odoo implementation tool

The Odoo implementation guide is a useful tool for small and medium scale companies who want to implement a business application by themselves. One can follow the steps and get the implementation done by themselves. You can implement Odoo by yourself without using the implementation service offered by Odoo.

The Sales Planner is a useful step-by-step guide created to help you implement your sales funnel and define your sales objectives easier.

We strongly recommend you go through every step of the tool the first time you use Odoo CRM and to follow the requirements. Your input is strictly personal and intended as a personal guide and mentor for your work. As it does not interact with the backend, you are free to adapt any detail whenever you feel it is needed.

...

Installing Odoo studio and adding a new field to a view

Odoo Studio was recently launched along with Odoo version 10. You can customize screens and reports, add new fields to model, create an automated action or create a new business application from scratch without any development skills. You can design awesome reports and create some automated business workflows too using Odoo studio.

Customizations done in Odoo Studio can be exported as an Odoo module. Developers or consultants can use Odoo Studio to bootstrap new modules or to create a prototype model of the proposed application.

Let's see how it will be easy for the non-Odoo developers to apply the customization without development.

Getting ready

We assume that you...

Creating a new business application using Odoo Studio

The job of Odoo Studio does not end with adding new fields, or changing the views. Using Odoo Studio you can create a new application from scratch without being a developer. Using Odoo Studio you can create beautiful application, design awesome reports, customize advanced screens, automate business workflows, and the great things are everything you developed using studio is also accessible on Odoo mobile.

Getting ready

It is assumed that you have a clear specification for the new application you are going to develop. I am going to develop the module, Odoo Academy app, I have to create a course, a new model, for student and teacher, and I will use the existing model, Partner...

Exporting and importing a custom application

Once you implement the application on the duplicated database, you are ready to move those settings and customizations to the production database.

How to do it...

  1. Go to the home page of your instance, enter studio mode, and click on the Export menu in the upper-left Customization menu. Look at the following screenshot:

Odoo will create a new application by incorporating all the changes in a structured way so that it can be loaded on the destination instance like other Odoo applications.

The download will begin once the module creation is completed by Odoo. The default filename will be customization.zip:

All customization is exported in the form of XML files including Python...

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
