Odoo Accounting: Features and Customizations

Functional Accounting

It’s been a decade that Cybrosys has been serving the benefits of Odoo implementation and Odoo customization to its customers sprawling from all industry domains. Over these years of implementing business software solutions in Odoo, Cybrosys have found out that business organization faces similar kind of problems in their accounting and finance management.

Many of our clients discussed how their accounting software such as Quickbooks failed in accomplishing the requirement of business when the organization hit a growth spurt. With the growing business size, the organizations started witnessing the inefficiency of the software to perform intuitive and scalar. The major fallout was the inability to perform scalar to the uprising changes in the workflow. The situation eventually started questioning the accuracy of the software performance and the anticipated results.

This happened within many of our clients and we observed that this was in light of the isolated performance of the accounting software from the remaining business processes. Rather than going for integrated management software, many organizations went for individual software performing individual functions such as managing sales, customer relations, point of sales, accounting, etc. 

You might think that individual software can better perform the business process as they are specialized in one single sector. However, this is not true. What happens when the software performs in silos rather than integrated is that it will be prone to more data duplication and subsequently result in inaccurate outcomes. Performing individual rather than integrated, shall lead to data erosion and misplacement of data, thus failing to produce adequate results and reports to the concerned. 

With Odoo, the business organizations can break down the information silos as Odoo ERP comes as a suite of interconnected applications, providing utmost efficiency and preciseness.
