6. 7 Challenges Usually faced during Odoo Migration
1. Custom Modules Upgrade
• One of the biggest challenges during migration is to migrate the
custom modules and upgrade it along with Odoo base modules.
We need to merge our custom addons in a place where the
migration script is running.
2. Sequences in custom reports
• After migration, there are some reasons why few sequences go
missing. We always check those sequences, create it, execute it if
needed.

7. Challenges Usually faced during Odoo Migration
3. Unnecessary JS creates problem
• Unused Javascript files after migration has to be removed immediately
otherwise it will not allow some modules to work with. For example,
Kanban view in Employee module click event failed once for our client
due to unnecessary js files in source folder.
4. Uninstall some modules
• For example, Odoo CE V11 is not having accounting module since it is
integrated with invoicing module. So, after migration we need to uninstall
from apps and delete the source from physical folder to avoid problems.

8. Challenges Usually faced during Odoo Migration
5. Python Version Updation from Python2 to Python3
• Odoo CE V11 runs completely on Python version3 where few functions
mentioned below needs to be modified for its compatibility

6. Improved UI
With every upgrade, Odoo keeps getting a better user interface in more than one aspect. And when it
comes to better UI, easy functionality is the first thing that comes to our mind. Odoo latest version
has some enticing features given below:
• Facility of effective scheduling of next activities.
• New design with color coding for different functions.
• Customized real-time reports.
• Flowcharts having drill down facility.
• A side chatter for wide screens.
7. Web / Base Module
Heart of Odoo server is with web and base modules. Once migration is done, we need to completely
upgrade our web and base module which will resolve all dependencies to run your Odoo on its latest
version.

10. Odoo Migration Process are of 2 Types: Legacy Framework to
Odoo ERP and Odoo ERP version upgrades.
- Legacy System to Odoo ERP
• Organizations are unaware of the innovation or frameworks that do not
have the features to help business operations, and can’t scale up to a
developing client base.
• Pragmatic would comprehend the requirement for change and will
enable you to update your frameworks or applications, so as to profit
your business by advancing the correct blend of existing (Application
Management) versus new innovative Odoo ERP (Migration,
Enhancements).

11. Steps we follow when we move from your
Legacy Framework to Odoo ERP
- Backup the Legacy System: Although we don’t deal with the real server of the Odoo ERP,
we back it up. That is how cautious we are with customer’s data.
- Send a test lab or pilot venture: we utilize a test-lab way to access the Odoo ERP.
- Move the Modules: We additionally re-make modules that never again exist or that were
uniquely designed.
- Data transfer: We relocate that information while taking care of the changes in the
database foundation, to the new Odoo ERP.
- Test the ERP: Although we constantly test the ERP all through the procedure, we do the
last test when the entire ERP is relocated. This test enables us to settle those little bugs
that we missed while taking a shot at the ERP.
- Odoo ERP version migration/upgrades.

12. Process of Migration to a Newer Version of Odoo
Our process allows to migrate Odoo from older to newer versions of Odoo,
while current data is kept intact. It's possible to migrate Odoo to any of the newer versions,
but the migration must be done for each version in the chain of versions.
Odoo 9 → Odoo 12: Odoo 9 → Odoo10 → Odoo 11 → Odoo 12
Types of Migration:
1. Migration of Odoo without any 3rd party modules and customizations. Quick migration where
only official Odoo modules are updated.
2. Migration of Odoo with 3rd party modules and/or customizations
• Necessary to check and update the code of 3rd party modules (if the code for requested Odoo
version is not available).
• Necessary to check and update the code of customizations and custom-build modules.
• Code update must be done before the data migration starts.
• Odoo oficial modules are migrated according to standard process.

13. To update your Odoo to the next version, following are
two main areas for consideration:
1. Version Migration

14. To update your Odoo to the next version, following are
two main areas for consideration:
2. Code Migration

15. - How Odoo Migration is done:
1. Customer provides source codes of customized and custom-build modules with the list of 3rd
party modules used in current version of Odoo together with copy of current database for
migration. Pragmatic will provide an update of customized codes (if necessary) and data transfer
to the new database.
2. Extra time related to database connection and communication with customer must be
considered.
- How soon would Odoo migration function begin?
After getting the information from you, we will start to survey your system and afterward send you a
thorough report.

16. 1) Pragmatic will provide updated codes and database to customer for checking the result
(any changes made by customer during the migration process will not be reflected).
2) Pragmatic will provide updated codes and database to customer for checking the result (data
and functionalities) according to process mentioned in point 1. Migration will be repeated again
after the first migration is checked and accepted by the customer. This process will ensure that
actual data in database will be passed to new Odoo version.
NOTE: Time needed for code migration depends on the amount and type of customizations and
modules which must be converted to new version.
It also depends on inherited Odoo modules used in customized code because the Odoo basic
modules were changed and updated during development of its versions, which can affect the
degree of complexity of migration process (some modules from older Odoo versions could be
removed, changed or split to new modules, views could be removed/updated).
