Odoo Accounting Specialists
Most Odoo partners understand the software. Fewer understand accounting. Founded by Steve Jones FCCA — a qualified Chartered Certified Accountant and Odoo 19 Certified Consultant — Church Hill Business Systems brings genuine accounting expertise to every Odoo Accounting implementation.
Why the difference matters
Configuring an accounting system isn't just about ticking technical boxes. It's about understanding chart of accounts structure, VAT treatment, reporting requirements and how your numbers need to reconcile — so the system produces figures you and your accountant can actually trust, not just numbers that look plausible.
HMRC and Making Tax Digital compliant
We configure Odoo Accounting specifically around UK HMRC requirements, including Making Tax Digital (MTD) for VAT — digital record-keeping and direct digital submission, set up correctly from day one, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Connected, not just compliant
Because Odoo Accounting sits inside the same platform as your sales, inventory and manufacturing data, your accounts are built from real, connected transactions — not a manual export from a disconnected system. That means fewer reconciliation errors, faster month-end, and numbers you can rely on for real business decisions, not just compliance.
What we cover
- Chart of accounts setup tailored to your business
- VAT configuration and MTD-compliant submission
- Multi-currency and multi-company setup where needed
- Integration with payroll and existing accounting data
- Migration from Sage, Xero, QuickBooks or spreadsheets
- Ongoing accounting support as your business grows
Who this is for
Growing SMEs who've outgrown standalone accounting software, or who need accounting properly connected to manufacturing, inventory, field service or retail operations — rather than existing as a separate system requiring manual reconciliation.
Let's talk about your accounts
Whether you're implementing Odoo for the first time or your current accounting setup isn't giving you the visibility you need, we're happy to talk it through.
FAQ: Odoo Accounting
Is Odoo Accounting suitable for UK businesses?
Yes. Odoo Accounting supports UK-specific requirements including VAT configuration, Making Tax Digital (MTD) compliance, and UK chart of accounts structures, when configured correctly for UK tax rules.
Is Odoo HMRC Making Tax Digital (MTD) compliant?
Odoo's Accounting module supports Making Tax Digital for VAT, including digital record-keeping and direct digital submission of VAT returns to HMRC, when set up correctly for UK compliance requirements.
Can Odoo Accounting replace Xero or Sage?
Yes, Odoo Accounting can fully replace standalone systems like Xero or Sage, with the added benefit of being connected to the same platform as inventory, manufacturing and sales data, rather than operating as a separate system.
Do I need an accountant to set up Odoo Accounting?
While not strictly required, working with an accounting-qualified Odoo consultant significantly reduces the risk of configuration errors affecting chart of accounts structure, VAT treatment, and reporting accuracy — this is more specialised than general software configuration.
Can Odoo handle multi-currency or multi-company accounting?
Yes, Odoo Accounting supports both multi-currency transactions and multi-company setups within a single system, useful for businesses trading internationally or operating multiple legal entities.
