Accounting and tax advisory with Odoo

Whether Odoo is your operational ERP or your accounting system, we agree how it connects to your finance processes. We manage handovers to DATEV or support your finance team with reviews and corrections directly in Odoo. Annual accounts and German tax work are brought together in DATEV.

The system

What is Odoo?

Odoo is a modular ERP system covering areas such as sales, purchasing, inventory, projects and accounting. The accounting workflow depends on which modules you use and whether Odoo supplies the documents or also serves as your ledger.

How Odoo supports accounting

Invoices, credits and master data originate in your operational processes. We check how they reach the accounts with the appropriate account codes and tax treatment. This includes test exports, reconciliation of outstanding items and an agreed process for corrections.
