Odoo Development Company for Germany
Inwizards delivers Odoo implementation, customisation, integration, migration and support for companies in Germany — Community and Enterprise — with the German localisation handled as standard: GoBD-compliant record keeping, SKR03/SKR04 charts of accounts, DATEV export for your Steuerberater, EUR multi-currency, DHL and DPD shipping, and DSGVO-aware hosting in an EU region. Fixed-price scopes, written before work starts.
What an Odoo partner has to get right in Germany
German ERP requirements are stricter than most: bookkeeping must satisfy GoBD (immutability, traceability, the Verfahrensdokumentation), your Steuerberater expects a DATEV-compatible export, the chart of accounts is SKR03 or SKR04 rather than a generic template, and personal data handling has to stand up under DSGVO. Odoo does all of this well once it is configured properly — the risk is a partner who treats German accounting as a translation exercise. Inwizards configures the localisation first, then builds the customisations your process needs, and keeps the system maintained afterwards through Odoo Managed Care.
Who this is for
Mittelstand manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors, e-commerce brands selling on Amazon.de and Shopify, and services firms with projects and timesheets to bill — typically outgrowing Lexware, Sage or a legacy ERP, or moving off spreadsheets that finance no longer trusts.
How a German project runs
Discovery in European hours, a written fixed-price scope in EUR, a staging build you test as it grows, a go-live planned around your Monatsabschluss, and a support agreement afterwards. Change requests are quoted before they are built — never invoiced as a surprise.
Where your data sits
Your Odoo runs in a German or EU region of your own cloud account, on Odoo.sh, or on your own servers. An Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag (AVV) and a documented hosting location are part of the engagement, not an afterthought.
German localisation we configure
The details that decide whether your Buchhaltung can actually work in the system.
Accounting & charts of accounts
SKR03 or SKR04 as your Steuerberater prefers, German tax codes and Umsatzsteuer rates, EU reverse-charge and OSS handling for cross-border sales, and period closing that matches how your finance team already works.
→GoBD-compliant record keeping
Immutable posted entries, complete audit trail, retention configured to the statutory periods, and support in preparing the Verfahrensdokumentation your auditor will ask for — Odoo provides the mechanisms; the configuration decides whether they hold up.
→DATEV and Steuerberater handover
DATEV-compatible export of bookings and master data so your tax adviser receives what they expect, in the format they expect, without a monthly spreadsheet exercise.
→E-Rechnung and invoicing
Structured electronic invoicing in the formats German B2B trade is standardising on (XRechnung and ZUGFeRD), so invoices to public-sector and large corporate customers are accepted first time.
→Sales channels & logistics
Amazon.de and Amazon EU through our own Amazon Connector for Odoo, Vendor Central for 1P suppliers, Shopify and WooCommerce; DHL, DPD, GLS and Hermes label and tracking integration from Odoo deliveries.
→DSGVO
Data-minimised access roles, retention rules, subject-access export, deletion workflows, an AVV in the contract, and hosting in the German or EU region you choose.

Why German companies work with Inwizards
Germany is Odoo’s fastest-growing European market, and the partner queue shows it. Here is our honest pitch.
We maintain Odoo products across versions
The Amazon Connector for Odoo and the Vendor Central connector are Inwizards products. Keeping code working through Odoo upgrades is our weekly job, not a promise.
Capacity, without a two-quarter wait
Demand for Odoo work in Germany outstrips local partner capacity. Our Dubai office overlaps the full German working day for project management and escalations, with engineering from India, so projects start when you need them to.
Honest scoping
We tell you when Community is enough, when a standard app beats a custom module, and when a migration should wait for the Jahresabschluss. The recommendation follows your process, not a licence margin.
Odoo services across Germany, Austria and Switzerland
Remote delivery nationwide; on-site workshops arranged for larger implementations.
Odoo development company Germany — FAQ
Odoo provides the mechanisms GoBD requires - immutable posted entries, a complete audit trail and configurable retention - but compliance depends on how the system is configured and documented, not on the software alone. We configure those controls and support you in preparing the Verfahrensdokumentation your auditor expects. Your Steuerberater confirms the final position.
Yes. We configure DATEV-compatible export of bookings and master data so your tax adviser receives the format they expect each month, instead of a spreadsheet someone rebuilds by hand.
Whichever your Steuerberater works with. Both are set up during implementation, along with German tax codes, Umsatzsteuer rates, EU reverse-charge and OSS handling for cross-border sales.
Yes - structured electronic invoicing is configured as part of a German implementation so invoices to public-sector and large corporate customers are accepted first time. We confirm the exact formats and versions your customers require during scoping.
In a German or EU region of your own AWS, Azure or Google Cloud account, on Odoo.sh, or on your own servers - your choice. An Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag and a documented hosting location are part of the engagement. Compliance also depends on your own processes; we provide the technical controls and the documentation.
Project management and escalations run from our Dubai office, which overlaps the full German working day; engineering continues from India overnight so progress lands on staging each morning. Project language is English. German-language user documentation and the German Odoo interface are configured for your team.
Inwizards is an Odoo development company with teams in the USA, UAE and India, implementing both Community and Enterprise and maintaining its own Odoo products.
