Overview
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
An upgrade is switching to a newer version of Odoo (e.g., Odoo 14.0 to Odoo 15.0).
|
||||
|
||||
An upgrade does not cover:
|
||||
|
||||
* changing :ref:`Editions <db-upgrade/faq/editions-change>` (i.e., Community to Enterprise edition)
|
||||
* switching :ref:`hosting type <db-upgrade/faq/hosting-types-switch>` (i.e., On-Premise to Online or
|
||||
Odoo.sh)
|
||||
* migration from another ERP to Odoo

|
||||
Process workflow
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade process in a nutshell:
|
||||
|
||||
#. You create a test upgrade request.
|
||||
#. | Odoo processes the request:
|
||||
| This happens via an automated process that runs the database through an upgrade script and
|
||||
takes between 20 and 120 minutes. Only if an issue(s) arises will we have to intervene
|
||||
manually and adjust the script specifically to your database until the upgrade succeeds.
|
||||
#. Odoo delivers a test database.
|
||||
#. You test your database for possible discrepancies (see :ref:`db-upgrade/test-guidance`)
|
||||
#. If there are any discrepancies, you report them to the Upgrade support team via the help portal
|
||||
(see :ref:`db-upgrade/test-assistance`).
|
||||
#. We will fix the issues and send you a new test database.
|
||||
#. Once you have completed the testing and are happy with the result, you decide on a date and time
|
||||
when you stop users from accessing Odoo, freeze all data entries, and create an upgrade request
|
||||
for the production upgrade.
|
||||
#. Odoo delivers the production database through the automated process.
|
||||
#. You restore it in your Production environment a few short hours later and continue working on the
|
||||
newly upgraded database (this is done automatically on SaaS).
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/get-started:
|
||||
|
||||
Get started
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade process varies depending on where your database is hosted.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/online:
|
||||
|
||||
Online Hosting (SaaS)
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade request is made via your `database manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: db_upgrade/online-access-databases.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
:alt: Click on the profile button then on "My Databases"
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: db_upgrade/online-upgrade-button.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
:alt: Click on the settings button next to your database, then on "Upgrade"
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/odoo-sh:
|
||||
|
||||
Cloud Platform (Odoo.sh)
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
:doc:`../odoo_sh/advanced/upgrade_your_database`
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/on-premise:
|
||||
|
||||
Self-Hosting (On-Premise)
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
There are two possibilities:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Via `Odoo Upgrade service <https://upgrade.odoo.com>`_
|
||||
#. | For technically advanced users and partners, via the following command line on the machine
|
||||
where your database is hosted:
|
||||
| ``python <(curl -s https://upgrade.odoo.com/upgrade) test -d <your db name> -t <target
|
||||
version>``
|
||||
|
||||
The above command will dump your database to a file, send it to the upgrade platform for an upgrade,
|
||||
display you the live logs, and restore the upgraded database back on your server as a duplicate test
|
||||
database.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/testing-phase:
|
||||
|
||||
Testing Phase (pre-production phase)
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
This phase allows you to review an upgraded version of your database without affecting your
|
||||
production database in any way.
|
||||
|
||||
We suggest that you run the test upgrade process at least once, but you can do it as many times as
|
||||
you need (one at a time).
|
||||
|
||||
Once you receive your upgraded test database, check that all data, processes, and functionality are
|
||||
still correct and working as expected.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do find discrepancies, report your issues (see :ref:`db-upgrade/test-assistance`) and request
|
||||
a new test database (see :ref:`db-upgrade/test-db-request`) when the reported issues are fixed in
|
||||
the upgrade script.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not find any discrepancies, you'll be able to move on to the upgrade of your
|
||||
:ref:`production database <db-upgrade/production-live>`.

Test guidance
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Every business and organization has its own operational needs and has to test its specific Odoo
|
||||
instance respectively. We recommend you look at `the test scenario
|
||||
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ypNs7JKPOsjNbKpdiKFH7Al6g6whZ9jr7f7duAQ5E1w/>` for further

Production goes live
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The production upgrade request is when you decide to upgrade your current database with all your
|
||||
production data (invoices, VAT returns, inventories, current orders) to a new version of your choice.
|
||||
|
||||
After your :ref:`tests <db-upgrade/testing-phase>` are completed to your satisfaction, submit the
|
||||
request to upgrade your production database via our `website form <https://upgrade.odoo.com>`_.
|
||||
Select *Production* purpose.

.. danger::
|
||||
Going into production without first testing may lead to:
|
||||
|
||||
- business interruptions (e.g., no longer having the possibility to validate an action)
|
||||
- poor customer experiences (e.g., an eCommerce website that does not work correctly)

=======================
|
||||
|
||||
What is covered by the Enterprise Licence?
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Databases hosted on Odoo’s Cloud platforms (Saas and Odoo.sh) or On-Premise (Self-Hosting) enjoy the
|
||||
following service at all times.
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade of:
|
||||
|
||||
* standard applications
|
||||
* Studio customization (as long as the Studio app is still active)
|
||||
* customizations done by our consulting and developer services *if* they are covered by a
|
||||
‘Maintenance of Customisations’ subscription
|
||||
|
||||
The Upgrade Service is limited to your database's technical conversion and adaptation (standard
|
||||
modules and data) to make it compatible with the targeted version.
|
||||
|
||||
What upgrading does NOT cover
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* The cleaning of pre-existing data & configuration while upgrading
|
||||
* Any new developments and/or upgrades of your own :ref:`custom modules
|
||||
<db-upgrade/faq/custom-modules>`
|
||||
* `Training <https://www.odoo.com/learn>`_ on the latest version
|
||||

FAQ
|
||||
===
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/faq/why:
|
||||
|
||||
Why upgrade
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
* You benefit from the latest features of the :ref:`new major version
|
||||
<db-upgrade/faq/release-notes>` released by Odoo.
|
||||
* If you are in an :ref:`unsupported version <db-upgrade/supported-versions>`, you get a new version
|
||||
with support.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/faq/when:
|
||||
|
||||
When to upgrade
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
Whenever you want. You can make your upgrade request as soon as a new version is released or when
|
||||
your version turns unsupported, and you still wish to enjoy support.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/faq/availability:
|
||||
|
||||
Availability of the new version
|
||||
-------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
As soon as Odoo announces the release of a new major version, you can create a test upgrade request
|
||||
to try the latest version. Please note that at this point, the upgrade scripts will only have been
|
||||
tested with demo data. Please report any issue you might encounter while testing via the `Odoo
|
||||
Support page <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ and make sure to be happy with your test version before
|
||||
requesting the upgrade of your database in production.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/faq/duration:
|
||||
|
||||
Duration of the upgrade
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
It is impossible to give time estimates for every upgrade request.
|
||||
|
||||
In general, the "smaller" the database, the quickest the upgrade request is completed. A single-user
|
||||
database that uses only CRM will be processed faster than a multi-company, multi-user database that
|
||||
uses Accounting, Sales, Purchase, and Manufacturing.
|
||||
|
||||
You can expect the time it takes for the platform to upgrade the test database will be similar to
|
||||
the production upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/faq/project:
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade project
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
It depends on the user involvement (the time spent on testing, reporting problems, etc.) and the
|
||||
issues encountered that might need to be addressed by our technical team.
|
||||
|
||||
So, in a nutshell, what can impact your upgrade lead time?
|
||||
|
||||
* Source & targeted versions
|
||||
* Installed apps
|
||||
* Volume of data
|
||||
* Amount of customization (models, fields, methods, workflows, reports, website, etc.)
|
||||
* Installation of new apps or configuration changes after the start of the test phase
|
||||
* User commitment
|
||||
|
||||
.. _db-upgrade/faq/custom-modules:
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrade of the custom modules
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
As stated in our :doc:`/legal/terms/enterprise`, section :ref:`charges_standard`, this optional
|
||||
service is subject to additional fees.
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on your situation, the custom code could be upgraded by our services, by one of our
|
||||
partners, or you can do it yourself.

|
||||
|
||||
Editions change (from Community to Enterprise)
|
||||
----------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade always returns an Enterprise edition of Odoo, whether the database you sent was a
|
||||
community or enterprise edition. It is required to have an enterprise subscription to upgrade.

Switching the hosting types (Self-Hosting vs. Online Hosting - SaaS vs. Cloud Platform - Odoo.sh)

------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Open our `Release Note <https://www.odoo.com/page/release-notes>`_ page to get a summary of the new
|
||||
features and improvements made in each version.
|
||||
|
||||
How long is my test available for
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
An Odoo Online (SaaS) test database is available for one month by default. We can extend this trial
|
||||
period upon request. For Odoo.sh or on-premise, there is no restriction.
|
||||
|
||||
How many tests to perform before upgrading to production?
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
As many as needed. When you are comfortable with the database, run a last test upgrade 48 hours
|
||||
before requesting your production upgrade and test your workflows one last time.
|
||||
|
||||
How to/Where to report upgrade issues?
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
If you encounter issues during the upgrade process, please contact the Odoo Support through the
|
||||
`Odoo Support page <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_
|
||||
|
||||
- To report an issue discovered during the testing phase, please select **An issue related to my
|
||||
upgrade (test phase)**.
|
||||
- To report an issue discovered post-upgrade, please select **An issue related to my upgrade
|
||||
(production)**
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrading to production
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have completed testing and are happy with the result, you decide on a date and time when
|
||||
you stop users from accessing Odoo, freeze all data entries, and create an upgrade request for the
|
||||
production upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How is my data handled in the Upgrade Platform?
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
certificate chains are using SHA-2 already.
|
||||
- Safe System - Our servers are running recent Linux distribution with up-to-date security patches,
|
||||

This is a factor to take into consideration before upgrading. If you are on an older version, we

upgrade again).

|
||||
When to upgrade
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Whenever you want. You can make your upgrade request as soon as a new version is released or when
|
||||
your version turns unsupported, and you still wish to enjoy support.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade-faq/availability:
|
||||
|
||||
Availability of the new version
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
As soon as Odoo announces the release of a new major version, you can create a test upgrade request
|
||||
to try the latest version. Please note that at this point, the upgrade scripts will only have been
|
||||
tested with demo data. Please report any issue you might encounter while testing via the `Odoo
|
||||
Support page <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ and make sure to be happy with your test version before
|
||||
requesting the upgrade of your database in production.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade-faq/duration:
|
||||
|
||||
Duration of the upgrade
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
It is impossible to give time estimates for every upgrade request.
|
||||
|
||||
In general, the "smaller" the database, the quickest the upgrade request is completed. A single-user
|
||||
database that uses only CRM will be processed faster than a multi-company, multi-user database that
|
||||
uses Accounting, Sales, Purchase, and Manufacturing.
|
||||
|
||||
You can expect the time it takes for the platform to upgrade the test database will be similar to
|
||||
the production upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade-faq/project:
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade project
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
It depends on the user involvement (the time spent on testing, reporting problems, etc.) and the
|
||||
issues encountered that might need to be addressed by our technical team.
|
||||
|
||||
So, in a nutshell, what can impact your upgrade lead time?
|
||||
|
||||
* Source & targeted versions
|
||||
* Installed apps
|
||||
* Volume of data
|
||||
* Amount of customization (models, fields, methods, workflows, reports, website, etc.)
|
||||
* Installation of new apps or configuration changes after the start of the test phase
|
||||
* User commitment
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade-faq/custom-modules:
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrade of the custom modules
|
||||
=============================
|
||||
|
||||
As stated in our :doc:`/legal/terms/enterprise`, section :ref:`charges_standard`, this optional
|
||||
service is subject to additional fees.
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on your situation, the custom code could be upgraded by our services, by one of our
|
||||
partners, or you can do it yourself.

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade-faq/editions-change:
|
||||
|
||||
Editions change (from Community to Enterprise)
|
||||
==============================================
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade always returns an Enterprise edition of Odoo, whether the database you sent was a
|
||||
community or enterprise edition. It is required to have an enterprise subscription to upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||

|

Switching the hosting types (Self-Hosting vs. Online Hosting - SaaS vs. Cloud Platform - Odoo.sh)

|
||||
|
||||
An upgrade does not cover a change of `Hosting types <https://www.odoo.com/page/hosting-types>`_.

||||

||||

|

|
||||
|
||||
Open our `Release Note <https://www.odoo.com/page/release-notes>`_ page to get a summary of the new
|
||||
features and improvements made in each version.
|
||||
|
||||
How long is my test available for
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
An Odoo Online (SaaS) test database is available for one month by default. We can extend this trial
|
||||
period upon request. For Odoo.sh or on-premise, there is no restriction.
|
||||
|
||||
How many tests to perform before upgrading to production?
|
||||
---------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
As many as needed. When you are comfortable with the database, run a last test upgrade 48 hours
|
||||
before requesting your production upgrade and test your workflows one last time.
|
||||
|
||||
How to/Where to report upgrade issues?
|
||||
--------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you encounter issues during the upgrade process, please contact the Odoo Support through the
|
||||
`Odoo Support page <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_
|
||||
|
||||
- To report an issue discovered during the testing phase, please select **An issue related to my
|
||||
upgrade (test phase)**.
|
||||
- To report an issue discovered post-upgrade, please select **An issue related to my upgrade
|
||||
(production)**
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrading to production
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have completed testing and are happy with the result, you decide on a date and time when
|
||||
you stop users from accessing Odoo, freeze all data entries, and create an upgrade request for the
|
||||
production upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How is my data handled in the Upgrade Platform?
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The Odoo Upgrade platform uses the same Privacy Policy as the rest of Odoo.com services.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
(HTTPS with a 2048-bit modulus SSL certificate), and running behind Grade A SSL stacks. All our
|
||||
certificate chains are using SHA-2 already.
|
||||
- Safe System - Our servers are running recent Linux distribution with up-to-date security patches,
|
||||
with firewall and intrusion countermeasures (not disclosed for obvious reasons).
|
||||
|
||||
Servers are located at the same locations as our Cloud providers with the following services:
|
||||
|
||||
- Restricted perimeter, physically accessed by authorized data center employees only
|
||||
- Physical access control with security badges or biometrical security
|
||||
- Security cameras monitoring the data center locations 24/7
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
are permanently deleted following that period.
|
||||
|
||||

|

|
||||
Overview
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
An upgrade is switching to a newer version of Odoo (e.g., Odoo 14.0 to Odoo 15.0).
|
||||
|
||||
An upgrade does not cover:
|
||||
|
||||
* Changing :ref:`editions <upgrade-faq/editions-change>` (i.e., Community to Enterprise edition)
|
||||
* Switching :ref:`hosting type <upgrade-faq/hosting-types-switch>` (i.e., On-Premise to Online or
|
||||
Odoo.sh)
|
||||
* Migration from another ERP to Odoo
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: |assistance-contact|
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade/process-workflow:
|
||||
|
||||
Process workflow
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade process in a nutshell:
|
||||
|
||||
#. You create a test upgrade request.
|
||||
#. | Odoo processes the request:
|
||||
| This happens via an automated process that runs the database through an upgrade script and
|
||||
takes between 20 and 120 minutes. Only if an issue(s) arises will we have to intervene
|
||||
manually and adjust the script specifically to your database until the upgrade succeeds.
|
||||
#. Odoo delivers a test database.
|
||||
#. You test your database for possible discrepancies (see :ref:`upgrade/test-guidance`)
|
||||
#. If there are any discrepancies, you report them to the Upgrade support team via the help portal
|
||||
(see :ref:`upgrade/test-assistance`).
|
||||
#. We will fix the issues and send you a new test database.
|
||||
#. Once you have completed the testing and are happy with the result, you decide on a date and time
|
||||
when you stop users from accessing Odoo, freeze all data entries, and create an upgrade request
|
||||
for the production upgrade.
|
||||
#. Odoo delivers the production database through the automated process.
|
||||
#. You restore it in your Production environment a few short hours later and continue working on the
|
||||
newly upgraded database (this is done automatically on SaaS).
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade/get-started:
|
||||
|
||||
Get started
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade process varies depending on where your database is hosted.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade/online:
|
||||
|
||||
Online Hosting (SaaS)
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade request is made via your `database manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: process/online-access-databases.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
:alt: Click on the profile button then on "My Databases"
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: process/online-upgrade-button.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
:alt: Click on the settings button next to your database, then on "Upgrade"
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade/odoo-sh:
|
||||
|
||||
Cloud Platform (Odoo.sh)
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
:doc:`odoo_sh`
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade/on-premise:
|
||||
|
||||
Self-Hosting (On-Premise)
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
There are two possibilities:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Via `Odoo Upgrade service <https://upgrade.odoo.com>`_
|
||||
#. | For technically advanced users and partners, via the following command line on the machine
|
||||
where your database is hosted:
|
||||
| ``python <(curl -s https://upgrade.odoo.com/upgrade) test -d <your db name> -t <target
|
||||
version>``
|
||||
|
||||
The above command will dump your database to a file, send it to the upgrade platform for an upgrade,
|
||||
display you the live logs, and restore the upgraded database back on your server as a duplicate test
|
||||
database.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _upgrade/testing-phase:
|
||||
|
||||
Testing Phase (pre-production phase)
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
This phase allows you to review an upgraded version of your database without affecting your
|
||||
production database in any way.
|
||||
|
||||
We suggest that you run the test upgrade process at least once, but you can do it as many times as
|
||||
you need (one at a time).
|
||||
|
||||
Once you receive your upgraded test database, check that all data, processes, and functionality are
|
||||
still correct and working as expected.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do find discrepancies, report your issues (see :ref:`upgrade/test-assistance`) and request
|
||||
a new test database (see :ref:`upgrade/test-db-request`) when the reported issues are fixed in
|
||||
the upgrade script.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not find any discrepancies, you'll be able to move on to the upgrade of your
|
||||
:ref:`production database <upgrade/production-live>`.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The production upgrade request is when you decide to upgrade your current database with all your
|
||||
production data (invoices, VAT returns, inventories, current orders) to a new version of your
|
||||
choice.
|
||||
|
||||
After your :ref:`tests <upgrade/testing-phase>` are completed to your satisfaction, submit the
|
||||
request to upgrade your production database via our `website form <https://upgrade.odoo.com>`_.
|
||||
Select *Production* purpose.

|
||||
Going into production without first testing may lead to:
|
||||
|
||||
- business interruptions (e.g., no longer having the possibility to validate an action)
|
||||
- poor customer experiences (e.g., an eCommerce website that does not work correctly)

Please note that Odoo provides support and bug fixing only for the three last major versions of

Odoo.
|
||||
|

This is a factor to take into consideration before upgrading. If you are on an older version, we
|
||||
suggest you to prefer the most recent version to benefit from longer support (before having to
|

upgrade again).
