Dear Mr. Dela Cruz, here is what we heard and what we recommend.
Thank you for the discovery call on 28 October with Ms. Ana Reyes, your Finance Manager, and your branch heads. Sample Trading Corp. issues about 2,400 sales invoices a month from booklets at three sites, keeps its books in spreadsheets typed in from those booklets, and closes each month about twelve working days after month-end. Your accountant has advised you to move to a Computerized Accounting System (CAS), so that invoices come from the system and the books follow from the entries.
We recommend Odoo 20, set up for BIR requirements at your head office in Quezon City and your Cebu and Davao branches, with your CAS application samples printed from the Odoo you will actually use. You file at your RDO; we prepare the system description, sample invoices, books and audit trail printout with you, and stay on call for the RDO's questions.
The investment is PHP 434,560 including VAT, paid in three milestones, with go-live planned for Monday 4 January 2027, the first working day of your 2027 books. One cut-over at year-end means one set of opening balances and no mid-year migration.
One set of books for three sites.
Invoices, journals and BIR reports come from the same entries, by branch, in one database.
Your CAS application, prepared from your own Odoo.
Sample invoices, books, reports and the audit trail printout, reviewed with you before you file.
A team that stays on.
Thirty days of hypercare are included, then a support plan with response times in writing.

Your numbers, not our promise. In Odoo the journal entry is written when the invoice is posted, so this step goes away; review and approval stay with your team.
One Odoo database, from the sales order to the BIR report.
Five Odoo apps on Odoo's Philippine localisation. Each step writes the record the next one needs, so nothing is typed twice. Pick a step to see what it does for you.
Sales: one price list, three sites.
Quotations, price lists and credit limits per branch. A confirmed order reserves stock and tells billing what to invoice, so the invoice never starts from a blank booklet.
- Price lists and payment terms per customer group
- Credit limits checked before an order is confirmed
- Sales by branch, salesperson and product, live

| S00414 | Mabini Depot | 12,320.00 | Quotation |
Inventory: stock valued as it moves.
Receipts, deliveries and transfers between Quezon City, Cebu and Davao. Each move posts its value, so the books carry inventory without a month-end upload.
- Three warehouses with their own locations
- Inter-branch transfers with in-transit tracking
- Average-cost valuation posted automatically

| DVO/IN/00019 | Receipt from supplier | Ready |
Invoicing: the system issues the invoice.
Odoo issues the invoice from the delivered order, on a series per branch, with the information the EOPT rules require, your AC control number once issued, and "REPRINT" on any copy.
- Series per branch, six running digits
- Invoice layout reviewed with you and your accountant
- Credit notes reverse, never edit, a posted invoice
| Customer TIN | 000-000-101-000 |

| AC control no. | Issued by your RDO |
| Net / VAT 12% | 16,500.00 / 1,980.00 |
Accounting: the books follow from the entries.
Every posted document writes its journal entry. Odoo's Book of Accounts for CAS and CBA prints your journals and ledger, with the audit trail, hash-secured entries and lock dates behind them.
- General journal and general ledger
- Cash receipts, cash disbursements, sales and purchase journals
- Bank reconciliation and branch reports
| Accounts receivable | Dr 18,480.00 |
| Sales | Cr 16,500.00 |
| Output VAT | Cr 1,980.00 |
BIR reports: from the same entries.
The Philippine localisation's reports come from what you already posted, so the quarterly lists match the books. Your accountant reviews them before you file.
- BIR Form 2307 from vendor bills
- SLSP, SAWT and QAP in the BIR's file formats
- 2550Q summary of output and input VAT

Recommended hosting: Odoo Online on the Custom plan, which includes Studio for your invoice layout. Cloud set-ups register too: you and the provider sign a joint sworn statement that the system cannot suppress sales. We confirm the hosting with you at kick-off, because it decides what goes in your application.

What the BIR checks in your system, and who covers each part.
The functional and technical requirements in RMC 5-2021 Annex B. The RDO evaluates them after it issues your certificate, so we check them with you before you file. Pick a column to see one party's part.
Sources: RMC 5-2021 Annex B, the Odoo 20 release notes and Odoo's documentation. Whether a set-up meets every item depends on its configuration and hosting, which we review with you before you apply; the RDO makes the evaluation.
Who does what, from the first workshop to your yearly books.
TechNext sets up the system and prepares the samples with you. You register, your accountant advises on tax, and the RDO decides.

Terms of this proposal.
- 12.1Validity
This proposal is valid for 30 days, until 3 December 2026. After that, prices and dates are confirmed again.
- 12.2Prices and taxes
Prices are fixed for the scope in section 4, in Philippine pesos, and exclude VAT, which is added at 12%. Taxes are applied on each invoice as the law requires.
- 12.3Payment
50% on signing, 30% on handover of the CAS application pack and 20% on go-live. Invoices are due within 15 days. Support is billed monthly in advance from the end of hypercare.
- 12.4Changes to the scope
Anything outside section 4 is estimated in writing first. No change work starts without your written approval.
- 12.5Your responsibilities
A named project owner, data in our templates by the agreed dates, sign-offs within three working days, and your filing, notarisation and fees at the BIR.
- 12.6Acceptance
Each deliverable is accepted when signed, or five working days after handover if no issue is raised in writing.
- 12.7Warranty
Defects in TechNext's configuration found within 90 days of go-live are fixed at no charge.
- 12.8Confidentiality and data privacy
We use your data only for this project, under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173), and sign your NDA on request.
- 12.9Ownership
Your data and your configuration are yours. Odoo is licensed to you by Odoo S.A. under Odoo's own terms.
- 12.10Ending the engagement
Either party may end it with 15 days' written notice. Work done to that date is billed at the line prices above.
TechNext is an Odoo Ready Partner. We are not affiliated with, accredited by or acting for the BIR or any government agency, and we do not file or register on your behalf. The BIR does not accredit software brands; it registers each taxpayer's use of a system. Registration decisions and their timing are the BIR's. This proposal is general guidance, not tax advice; confirm tax matters with your accountant or RDO.
Questions decision makers ask us.
Is Odoo BIR-accredited?
No software is. The BIR registers each taxpayer's use of a system, not a software brand, and in its advisory of 14 September 2026 it warned against "BIR-accredited" claims. Your business registers Odoo as its CAS and, if the RDO accepts the application, receives an Acknowledgement Certificate.
Who files the CAS application?
You do, at your RDO, in person or by email. We set up the system, prepare the samples, the audit trail printout and the system description with you, and stay on call for the RDO's questions.
What happens if the certificate is late?
Go-live waits for it, and the plan says so openly: your booklets stay in use until the certificate arrives, and go-live moves to the first Monday after it does.
What do we pay Odoo?
Your Odoo subscription, per user, billed by Odoo directly. It is separate from this proposal. We help you choose the plan and the number of users before you subscribe.
Can we start with head office only?
Yes. Each branch registers its own use of the system, so a phased start is possible. We recommend all three sites at year-end, because one cut-over means one set of opening balances.
Do we have to re-register when Odoo upgrades?
A version change that affects the financial side counts as a major enhancement, which needs an updated registration before you use it. Minor changes need only a written notice. We plan upgrades so you can file first.
What if we need more after go-live?
Requests come out of your support plan hours. Larger work, such as payroll or a new branch, is quoted in writing first, like the optional items in section 10.
