Why Your Odoo Implementation Should Start with the Chart — Not the CRM

Too many Australian businesses jump into ERP projects by focusing on quoting tools, pipeline stages, or pretty dashboards. And too often, they end up with something that looks great — but doesn’t reconcile, doesn’t meet BAS requirements, and doesn’t help anyone make decisions.

That’s why I wrote Start with the Chart — a practical guide to building your Odoo implementation around what actually matters: your Chart of Accounts.

This isn’t a technical manual. It’s a blueprint for business owners, CFOs, and project leads who want an ERP that works — not just for today, but for the long term.

Inside the book:

  • How to design your Chart of Accounts using ATO benchmarks
  • Setting up GST, BAS and PAYG in Odoo — properly
  • Migrating from Xero, MYOB or spreadsheets
  • How to manage payroll with tools like Employment Hero
  • Reporting dashboards that inform, not confuse
  • What to customise — and what to leave alone

Whether you're planning your first Odoo project or rescuing a messy implementation, Start with the Chart gives you a proven foundation.
