The development team defines workflows, user roles, security, integrations, data structures, and expected outputs.
Step 4: Development
Developers build the required modules, applications, integrations, reports, or workflows.
Step 5: Testing

After approval, the custom functionality is deployed to the production environment.
Step 7: Support
Ongoing support can address technical issues, upgrades, enhancements, and additional development requirements.
Custom Odoo Development vs Odoo Customization
Although the terms are often used interchangeably, there is a difference.
Odoo customization generally involves modifying or extending existing Odoo functionality.
Custom Odoo development can involve building new modules, applications, integrations, portals, APIs, workflows, and other functionality.
For example, adding a field to an existing sales order may be a simple customization, while building a complete customer portal with external system integration may require custom development.
O2B Technologies provides both Odoo Customization Services and development services, allowing businesses to select an approach based on their requirements.
