Xero to Odoo migration services delivered end to end for Australian businesses, from a single-org Xero cutover into Odoo Accounting to a multi-entity xero to odoo erp migration with Manufacturing, Project, and custom Python modules.
Built here. Your data stays here.
Three stages. No surprises. Your live Xero data stays untouched until cutover, delivered personally by the founder.
Week 0
15-minute scoping call. We map your Xero setup, the chart-of-accounts, tracking categories and operational data that needs to translate to Odoo (including which modules, Accounting, Inventory, Sales, Manufacturing, are in scope), and the cleanup decisions to make on the way. Fixed-price quote inside 48 hours.
Weeks 1–N
Full migration run in an Odoo sandbox database first. Both systems then run in parallel for two weeks, every transaction, contact, balance and report cross-checked against the source. No risk to live operations.
Cutover
Production cutover on a planned window, typically a weekend. Team training, monitoring active, 30 days post-launch support. Xero safely retired with full history preserved.
Every migration project starts from a set of concrete data on the source platform and ends with the same data, cleaned and validated, on the target. Here is the shape of that move.
Where your data lives today, in Xero.
The same data, cleaned and validated, in Odoo, ready for day one.
What actually comes across
Moving the balances is the easy part. The work is the history: the invoices still open, the codes that do not exist in Odoo, the attachments nobody wants to lose, and the customer records that have drifted over years. All of it has to arrive reconciled, not approximately.
What has to move
Codes mapped to their Odoo equivalents, records deduplicated on rules you approve, then both systems run side by side until the balances agree. Cutover happens on a window you choose.
See how a conversion runsWhat you get
Every xero to odoo erp migration is different. Here is what we typically cover when you migrate Xero to Odoo with us.
Everything in Xero, chart of accounts, contacts, invoices, bills, inventory, purchase orders, historical transactions, reporting structures and multi-entity data, extracted, transformed and loaded into Odoo.
We validate counts, balances and data integrity at every step. Nothing gets silently dropped.
We configure Odoo to match your business structure, entities, departments, cost centres, approval workflows, user roles and security.
Not a vanilla install. A system configured to how you actually operate.
Any integrations you had with Xero, CRM, eCommerce, payroll, job management, need rebuilding on Odoo. We handle those too.
The goal is that the day you go live on Odoo, everything your team uses is connected.
Moving to an ERP is a bigger change than swapping accounting software. We train each department on their specific workflows in Odoo.
Onboarding documentation, quick-reference guides and a support channel for the first month.
We run both systems in parallel for an agreed period. Your team validates the data, tests workflows, and builds confidence before the final switch.
There is always a rollback plan. Nobody gets forced off the old system until the new one is proven.
Price moves with modules in scope, custom fields, approvals, inventory depth, multi-entity structure, connected systems, and cutover complexity. Here is how we scope it.
Tell us what must survive in Odoo, what workflows or reports cannot break, and whether the move fits one fixed-price migration or needs phased delivery.
Once data scope, workflow rebuilds, connected systems, and cutover risk are clear, you get fixed-price scope covering cleansing, migration, validation, and go-live. No open-ended estimates.
If the move includes heavy history, connected systems, or adjacent rebuild work, we can split it into core migration first, then history, then integrations. Each phase has its own price and sign-off.
Why HELLO PEOPLE
DIY spreadsheet migrations, vendor migration tools, and offshore migrators all promise to move your data. Here's how HELLO PEOPLE compares on the things that actually matter to an AU SMB owner.
| Concern | HELLO PEOPLE | DIY spreadsheets | Vendor migration tool | Offshore migrators |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Data preserved end-to-end | 100% + validated at every step | Usually yes, no validation | Advertised complete, some fields drop | Depends on the vendor |
| Downtime during cutover | Zero. Parallel run + weekend cut | Days to weeks | Hours to days | Often days |
| AU BAS / GST / payroll fit | AU-native, understood | You own the risk | Usually generic | Variable |
| Pricing model | Fixed price, one-time | Your team's time forever | Per-record or flat fee | Per-hour + revisions |
| When something breaks | We own the fix, no charge | You own it | Support ticket queue | Time-zone gap |
| Data cleansing | Included in scope | Optional, often skipped | Usually not | Quoted separately |
| Post-cutover support | 30 days included, plan optional | None | Chat support tier | Depends on contract |
A Perth-based services group with 60+ staff moved off their legacy accounting stack to a modern cloud platform, taking multiple entities across in one coordinated cut. Chart of accounts consolidated, payroll continuity preserved through cutover, and BAS lodgement continued on time.
Read the full case studyWe had been putting off the switch for over a year. They made it painless, scoped it clearly, migrated everything, and our team was up and running in Odoo within weeks. The data was cleaner than it had been in years.
A structured process so you know what is happening at each stage. No ambiguity, no surprises.
We audit data quality, volume, complexity and connected integrations. You get a clear scope and a fixed price before anything starts.
Duplicates merged, dead records removed, formats standardised. Your data is cleaned in Xero before anything moves.
Odoo is set up to match your business, accounts, custom fields, user roles, tax settings. No generic template.
Chart of accounts, contacts, invoices, bills, inventory, purchase orders, historical transactions, reporting structures and multi-entity data, extracted, transformed and loaded into Odoo. Validated against the source at every step.
Balances checked. Reports compared. Edge cases tested. Your team reviews the data in Odoo before we go anywhere near production.
We cut over at the right moment and stay close for the first month. Xero stays accessible as a reference until you are confident.
Depends on Odoo module scope (Accounting, Sales, Inventory, Manufacturing, Project, HR, eCommerce), multi-company structure, custom Python modules, connected systems, and history depth. We scope your Xero org first, then quote fixed price before any work starts.
About 2 to 4 months for most Australian businesses. Single-org Xero into Odoo Accounting runs at the shorter end. Multi-entity Xero onto Odoo with Manufacturing and custom Python modules is longer.
Yes. Custom Xero to Odoo migration is a core piece of what we do, including custom Odoo modules in Python for industry-specific logic, QWeb reports, OWL framework front-end widgets, and Odoo Studio configuration for tradie-specific fields.
Yes. We are a Perth-based Xero Odoo migration company delivering nationally, with multi-module clients across Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. Delivery is remote and the team is Australian.
No history gets dropped. Chart of accounts, contacts, invoices, bills, historical journals, and tracking categories all migrate to Odoo Analytic Accounts and Tags with reconciliation at every step.
Yes. Xero stays live until cutover. Both systems run in parallel for two weeks so every transaction and balance cross-checks against the source before switching off Xero.
Yes. Multiple Xero organisations consolidate into Odoo multi-company with inter-company invoicing, journal posting, group consolidation reporting, and cross-entity master data deduplication as part of the scope.
Yes. Salesforce, HubSpot, Shopify, WooCommerce, warehouse or 3PL, Power BI, and AI invoice processing all rebuild against Odoo as part of the migrate Xero to Odoo project.
Where people go after Xero varies, and we scope the move to whichever system you have chosen: Xero, MYOB AccountRight, MYOB Business, MYOB Acumatica, QuickBooks Online, Reckon, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Sage 50, Sage 300, Sage Intacct, Odoo, Zoho Books, FreshBooks, Saasu, SAP Business One, Oracle and Workday. If the one you have picked is a poor fit for how you actually work, we will say so before you have paid for a conversion into it.
The parts that decide the timeline are the same wherever you land: the chart of accounts, the general ledger, the customer and supplier master, open purchase orders and sales orders, opening balances and payroll history, and how much history you export out of the old system and import into the new one, rather than leave behind in a readable archive. Hosted files, local files and vendor exports each come out differently.
If you are looking because Xero is too old, out of support or reaching end of life, that is a question of timing rather than whether. It is worth comparing the alternatives and moving away on your own schedule rather than on the one the vendor picks for you.
