Process

How Iwork

The same five steps on every Odoo project, from the first call to the support window after go-live.

5 steps
01

Scope the actual problem

Before any code, I want the process behind the request — who touches the record, what breaks today, and what 'done' looks like to the person doing the job.

  • Walk the current workflow
  • Agree the acceptance criteria
  • Flag anything standard Odoo already does
02

Plan the module

Models, fields and access rules on paper first. Deciding inheritance versus a new model early is what keeps the upgrade path open later.

  • Data model and inheritance
  • Security groups and record rules
  • Migration impact across 16–20
03

Build in small pieces

Backend logic first, then the OWL layer over it. Each piece lands working rather than arriving as one large drop at the end.

  • Models, workflows, QWeb reports
  • Client actions and widgets
  • Committed in reviewable steps
04

Test against real data

A module that works on two demo records is not tested. I run it against a copy of the real database, with the real volume and the real edge cases.

  • Restored production copy
  • Permission checks per group
  • Query profiling on the slow views
05

Deploy and hand over

Deployment on Odoo.sh or your own instance, plus the documentation another developer needs to pick the module up without asking me.

  • Staged then production deploy
  • README and inline docstrings
  • A support window after go-live
What ships

Every project ends with the same four things.

01

The module itself

Installable, versioned, and written against the Odoo API rather than around it.

02

A README that is actually read

What it does, which models it touches, and what to check first when it misbehaves.

03

Access rules you can audit

Groups and record rules listed explicitly, so nobody has to guess who can see what.

04

A working staging deploy

Proven on a copy of your data before it goes anywhere near production.

Next step

Send me the process as it works today and I will come back with a scope.
