Move your Odoo data to Simplify Your Work
Switching off Odoo shouldn't mean losing years of invoices, customers, or job history. We extract everything directly from your Odoo database, map it to Simplify's schema, and land you on the other side with your data intact and your team productive from day one.
We've heard every concern. Here are the three biggest.
Losing historical data
Ten years of invoices, every customer contact, every job history. You built this on Odoo. Walking away feels like throwing it in the bin. We won't let you.
Migration that drags for months
You've heard horror stories of six-month Odoo exits. Your business can't tread water that long. We run migrations in 1–3 weeks, not quarters.
Customisations that don't travel
Your Odoo is full of bespoke fields and modules the previous consultant bolted on. We map every custom field we find — and flag anything that genuinely can't move with a workable alternative.
Every Odoo record that matters.
Customers + contacts
res.partner records, all tags, internal notes, addresses, bank + TRN details, communication history.
Invoices + credit notes (assisted migration)
account.move records including line items, VAT, payment status, and linked journal entries — 5-year audit trail preserved. Self-serve automated sync for invoices is coming in a later phase; today our team runs this as an assisted migration during your kickoff.
Jobs / Sales orders (assisted migration)
sale.order + project.task records with line items, statuses, assigned technicians, and check-in timestamps. Self-serve automated sync for jobs is coming in a later phase; today we migrate these with you as part of the assisted process.
Accounting ledger
Full chart of accounts, journals, journal entries — reconciled opening balances on cutover date.
Employees + HR (assisted migration)
hr.employee records including passport, visa, Emirates ID, labour card expiry, bank details, leave balances. Self-serve automated sync for HR is coming in a later phase; today our team handles this as an assisted migration.
Products + inventory
product.template + product.product, multi-warehouse stock, vendor bills, supplier master.
Attachments
ir.attachment files — invoices PDFs, job photos, employee documents — stored in Simplify file storage.
Recurring contracts
Subscription / recurring invoice rules converted to Simplify's AMC engine with the same cycle.
Four steps. We carry the risk.
Kickoff + export
30-minute call to scope what moves and what we park. We get read-only access to your Odoo (self-hosted or odoo.com) and extract a full snapshot.
Map + migrate
We run a test migration on a staging tenant. You log in and spot-check a representative slice — customers, invoices, active jobs. Adjustments made.
Cutover
On the agreed day we run the final extraction against Odoo, migrate, and hand you a production tenant. Opening balances reconciled to the cutover date.
Post-cutover support
Two weeks of direct support while your team learns Simplify and trailing Odoo transactions get cleaned up.
How long it takes
Typical Odoo → Simplify migration for a UAE service business: 1–3 weeks from kickoff to cutover, depending on data volume and custom-field complexity.
What we promise
We migrate 100% of the data in scope or your migration fee is refunded. No surprise scope creep, no per-record charges.
Migration questions, answered.
We're on Odoo self-hosted Community — can you still migrate us?
Yes. We support Community, Enterprise, and odoo.com. For self-hosted we need a read-only PostgreSQL connection or a recent database dump.
What about our Odoo Studio / custom field customisations?
Custom fields are mapped to Simplify custom fields where possible. Studio-built models get reviewed during kickoff — most map cleanly, edge cases are flagged before you sign off on the plan.
Will invoice numbers stay the same?
Yes. Simplify honours your existing numbering sequence on cutover day and continues forward from the last issued number.
What about Odoo's complex VAT configurations?
Your tax structure maps to Simplify's UAE VAT model. If you've been using Odoo's generic tax engine for UAE VAT, the migration also corrects the reporting gaps most UAE companies have in Odoo.
Can you migrate without downtime?
We run a low-risk freeze window (typically a weekend) where Odoo is read-only for a few hours. Your team keeps working in Odoo until Friday, we cutover over the weekend, you log in to Simplify on Monday.
Ready to move?
Apply for access and mention “Odoo migration” in the form. Our migration team will be in touch within 2 working days to scope the move.
