Functional specification
Describe triggers, inputs, outputs, permissions, exceptions and examples before engineering begins.
BUILD & EXTEND
Odoo development for specialist requirements.
Custom modules, portals and business logic when your requirement needs more than standard configuration.

WHAT WE DELIVER
From a business requirement to working software.
We translate a business requirement into a defined development task, build it in a controlled environment and test it with the people who will use it. Source access, dependencies and handover are part of the discussion from the start.
Custom modules
Build functionality for a business activity that the existing applications do not cover.
Business logic
Implement agreed calculations, validations and transaction rules.
Portals & interfaces
Assess customer, supplier or internal interfaces around the records users need to access.
Integration components
Develop the Odoo-side logic needed for a separately scoped connection.
Source & release control
Keep development versioned, with clear dependencies and review points.
Quality & handover
Test the behaviour, permissions and related flows before the agreed release.
IS THIS THE RIGHT SERVICE?
When the requirement needs engineering.
01
A missing business function
Represent a specialised process with appropriate records and rules.
02
An existing module needs work
Review source and compatibility before extending or repairing it.
03
A user needs a dedicated interface
Design the interaction around the task and access requirements.
THE RESULT OF THE WORK
Know what
you’ll receive.
Each engagement has agreed deliverables and a named owner for the next step.
Discuss your development brief- 01An agreed specification
- Behaviour, inputs, outputs and test examples.
- 02A source package
- Versioned code and documented dependencies.
- 03A release handover
- Acceptance evidence, installation and support notes.
OUR APPROACH
A clear route from enquiry to handover.
- 01
Specify
Agree the business rules and technical environment.
- 02
Develop
Build with reviewable source and progress checks.
- 03
Validate
Test the requirement and related behaviour.
- 04
Deploy
Release with documentation and ownership clear.
CONTROL THE ENGINEERING WORK
From specification to supported release.
Custom code becomes a business dependency. Its behaviour, ownership and maintenance route should be visible before deployment.
Repository & ownership
Record source location, licence terms, review access, dependencies and client handover rights.
Acceptance evidence
Test expected behaviour, permissions, invalid inputs and affected existing workflows in a controlled environment.
Release & maintenance
Plan backup, deployment, rollback, defect handling, documentation and later-version adaptation.
Release gate: deploy only after the agreed tests pass, access and backup are confirmed, and the responsible owner approves the release window.
A LITTLE MORE DETAIL
Worth clarifying
before we start.
Which hosting setup is needed?
The environment must support the proposed custom code. Odoo Online does not accept arbitrary custom server modules; Odoo.sh or suitable self-hosting may be required.
What happens to the source code?
Repository access, ownership and modification rights are written into the agreement, including any third-party licence conditions.
What should the specification include?
Record the supported Odoo version, affected models, user roles, triggers, validations, expected outputs, exceptions, dependencies and sample acceptance tests. Separate confirmed behaviour from assumptions still needing a decision.
What belongs in a technical handover?
Provide repository access, dependency and installation notes, configuration steps, data changes, test evidence, release notes, known limitations, rollback conditions and the agreed maintenance owner.
Can we commission one module only?
Yes, subject to the requirement and environment review. A standalone module can be scoped separately from a wider ERP rollout.
Can you work with our existing development team?
We can assess a bounded workstream with agreed source access, coding conventions, review responsibilities and release ownership.
Are upgrades included?
Future-version adaptation is a separate responsibility unless explicitly covered by the agreement.
How do we confirm the result is complete?
Acceptance tests are agreed against the specification, including permissions, exceptions and relevant existing workflows.
Where should development be tested?
Use an authorised non-production environment with representative configuration and anonymised or approved test data. Production deployment follows the agreed backup, release and rollback plan.
How are defects different from new requests?
A defect is behaviour that fails the accepted specification. A new or changed business requirement should follow the agreed change process, with its own impact, estimate and approval.
