The short version
DynamoDocs automates Odoo document entry for professional services firms. For professional services firms, vendor bills, subcontractor invoices, and client-related expenses arrive constantly and finance keys each one in by hand. DynamoDocs captures each document, AI reads and classifies it, codes it to client, project, or engagement, validates it, and posts approved records into Odoo through the Odoo external API (XML-RPC / JSON-RPC), so finance advises the business instead of keying vendor bills. Odoo is a fast-growing modular ERP for SMBs, where teams want their invoices and orders to land in Odoo without manual entry across modules.

A worked example
Odoo for professional services firms, from inbox to posted record
Imagine a consulting firm running Odoo that receives a subcontractor invoice reimbursable to a specific client engagement, it has to be coded to the project to bill through. DynamoDocs picks it up from the monitored inbox (or a drag-and-drop upload), and AI reads every field and line, no template required. It is coded to client, project, or engagement from your rules and vendor or customer history, then validated against totals, required fields, and your own checks. Anything that fails is flagged field-by-field for a quick review; everything clean posts straight into Odoo as a vendor bill through the Odoo external API (XML-RPC / JSON-RPC). Connects through the Odoo external API (XML-RPC / JSON-RPC), Odoo Online, or self-hosted. Your professional services team reviews the occasional exception instead of retyping the whole document, so finance advises the business instead of keying vendor bills.

Odoo for Professional Services FAQ
How does DynamoDocs handle professional services documents on Odoo?
For professional services firms, vendor bills, subcontractor invoices, and client-related expenses arrive constantly and finance keys each one in by hand. DynamoDocs captures each of those documents from a monitored mailbox or upload, reads every field with AI (no per-vendor template), codes it to the right client, project, or engagement, and posts it into Odoo through the Odoo external API (XML-RPC / JSON-RPC). Connects through the Odoo external API (XML-RPC / JSON-RPC), Odoo Online, or self-hosted. Clean documents post automatically; only exceptions reach a person, so finance advises the business instead of keying vendor bills.
How does a vendor or subcontractor invoice coded to a client or project post into Odoo?
It becomes a vendor bill in Odoo, coded to the right client, project, or engagement, with header and line-item fields validated before anything posts. Creates vendor bills, sales orders, and quotations in Accounting and Sales. A visual field-mapping engine shapes the record into exactly what Odoo expects, so nothing is retyped and nothing posts half-filled.
Can it keep our Odoo coding right for professional services?
Yes, that is the point. Each document is coded to the right client, project, or engagement from your rules and vendor or customer history, so records arrive in Odoo already coded instead of waiting on a clerk. Anything that fails a rule is flagged field-by-field for a quick fix, which keeps Odoo clean and finance advises the business instead of keying vendor bills.
How do purchase orders and RFQs from professional services firms post into Odoo?
Purchase orders become a sales order and RFQs become a quotation in Odoo, with every line, vendor and subcontractor invoices coded to clients or projects included, read and validated first. Maps to your partners, products, and analytic accounts, matching Odoo's data model.
How much time and money does this save professional services firms on Odoo?
Keying one document into Odoo typically takes 5–10 minutes and costs $2–$6 in labor, before the cost of fixing mis-coded client, project, or engagement. DynamoDocs does it in seconds and only flags exceptions, which commonly cuts document-handling labor by 80–95% while finance advises the business instead of keying vendor bills.
