Odoo 18, available early 2025, brings a wave of innovations tailored for Swiss businesses. This edition builds on automation, in-depth budget analysis, and multi-company management adapted to French-speaking Switzerland, focusing on mobility and administrative integration.
Key highlights include sophisticated analytic budget creation, multi-company consolidation on a unified accounting plan, and multi-currency management in financial reports. Management flows are simplified with interactive dashboards and reimagined navigation. The Bank module enhances payment method customization and deadline management, while mobility (PWA, mobile overhaul) ensures smooth access to all functions for on-the-go teams.
Feedback from Swiss integrators points to immediate benefits for centralized financial management of Swiss groups and holdings, but requires dedicated team support to face functional changes and avoid a steep learning curve.
Moving to Odoo 18 is an opportunity to modernize administrative tools, secure the accounting chain, automate processes, and strengthen compliance with Swiss GAAP FER, LPP, VAT, and 2025 tax requirements, while remaining agile for growth. For a successful Odoo project, favor support from a local fiduciary familiar with the French-speaking Swiss tax landscape who can anticipate your evolving needs.
