Outsource Odoo Accounting Services
What Are Outsourced Odoo Accounting Services?
Odoo's power as an ERP comes from everything being connected - but that same interconnectedness means an accounting error in one module can ripple through inventory, sales, purchase orders, and manufacturing reports simultaneously. Managing Odoo accounting correctly requires someone who understands both the financial and the operational layers of the platform.
Odoo accounting is not a standalone tool - it is the financial backbone of an integrated business platform. Configuring localisation for different tax jurisdictions, managing inter-company transactions across subsidiaries, and keeping the accounting module in sync with production and sales data all require specialist Odoo expertise.
Cred Books manages your Odoo accounting module on your behalf, from initial setup and localisation to daily bookkeeping, multi-company consolidation, and financial reporting. Our Outsourced Accounting Services cover the full ERP accounting cycle across all Odoo versions.
What is Odoo Accounting?
Odoo is an open-source ERP platform with an integrated accounting module that covers the full financial management cycle. It is used by businesses across all sizes and industries, from growing SMBs to enterprises with multi-country operations. Odoo accounting is tightly integrated with other Odoo modules including inventory, manufacturing, CRM, and HR.
Key features of Odoo include:
- Automated bank feeds and bank reconciliation
- Multi-currency and multi-company accounting
- Tax management across multiple jurisdictions
- Payroll integration via Odoo HR module
- Inventory and purchase order integration
- Financial reporting: profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow
- Integration with all Odoo modules and third-party apps
Cred Books manages fully outsourced Odoo accounting so you benefit from all these features without needing internal Odoo expertise or dedicated finance staff.

The firm handles bookkeeping, bank reconciliation, tax compliance across jurisdictions, multi-company consolidation, and financial reporting inside your existing Odoo instance.

Can I outsource just the Odoo accounting module to Cred Books?
Yes. Cred Books can manage the Odoo accounting module independently while your internal team continues to use Inventory, Sales, Manufacturing, and other modules. We integrate our accounting workflows with your operational modules to prevent data discrepancies.
Does Cred Books manage Odoo accounting for multi-company groups?
Yes. Cred Books manages accounting across multiple Odoo companies, handling inter-company journal entries, currency revaluations, consolidated financial statements, and group-level management reporting.
How do I set up outsourced Odoo accounting with correct tax localisation?
Cred Books configures Odoo tax localisation for your specific jurisdictions during onboarding, setting up the correct tax rates, fiscal positions, tax report mappings, and filing calendars for each country where your business operates.
Can Cred Books handle Odoo payroll and HR accounting?
Cred Books manages the accounting entries generated by the Odoo Payroll module, ensuring salary journals, tax withholding entries, and benefit accruals are correctly posted in the accounting module each pay period.
Is Odoo or NetSuite better for outsourced accounting?
Odoo is more flexible and cost-effective for small to mid-market businesses with manufacturing or multi-module needs. NetSuite is stronger for larger enterprises with complex multi-subsidiary structures. Cred Books manages both platforms.
How quickly can Cred Books start managing my Odoo accounting module?
Cred Books typically onboards new Odoo clients within 5 to 10 business days, covering a review of your module configuration, tax localisation, chart of accounts, bank journal setup, and reporting requirements.
What is the difference between outsourced Odoo accounting and an in-house ERP accountant?
An in-house ERP accountant typically manages one system within one organisation. Cred Books brings a team with cross-industry Odoo experience across multiple versions and jurisdictions, providing specialist knowledge in module integration, localisation, and multi-company accounting that a single in-house hire rarely possesses.
