Overview
BlueCamroo's data model is tightly integrated: Organizations anchor People, Opportunities, Cases, and Projects in a single parent-child hierarchy that must be replicated precisely in Odoo CRM. We export Organizations first, establish the BlueCamroo-ID-to-Odoo-ID lookup table, then apply it when importing People records so the partner-contact linkage is intact at cutover. BlueCamroo's renamed Extra Data Objects (now Custom Forms) require custom field configuration in Odoo before any data lands. BlueCamroo Workflow Rules are configuration records with no export path; we capture every active rule's trigger, conditions, and actions during discovery and deliver a written Odoo Automations rebuild guide. Time entries, billable hours, and project budget data migrate as Odoo timesheet entries linked to the correct project and employee. We do not migrate Workflow Rules, Task notifications, or project templates as code; these are documented for your admin to rebuild post-migration.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a BlueCamroo object lands in Odoo CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
BlueCamroo
Organization
Odoo CRM
res.partner (is_company = true)
1:1BlueCamroo Organizations are the parent container for all sub-records and map directly to Odoo res.partner records with the is_company flag set to True. Organization name maps to partner name, and we preserve the BlueCamroo Organization ID as a custom field bc_organization_id__c for lookup resolution when importing child People records. Multi-address Organizations in BlueCamroo (billing vs shipping) map to separate res.partner addresses of type 'invoice' and 'delivery' linked to the same company partner record. We import Organizations first in every migration because all other record types reference them.
BlueCamroo
People
Odoo CRM
res.partner (is_company = false)
1:1BlueCamroo People records map to Odoo res.partner with is_company = False, representing individual contacts. The BlueCamroo Organization ID on each Person record is resolved against the newly created res.partner IDs to set the parent_of field in Odoo, establishing the contact-company relationship. We export the Organization-ID-to-partner-ID mapping during the Organization phase and apply it during People import so that no Person lands without a parent company. Fields including email, phone, job title, department, and address components migrate to Odoo contact fields.
BlueCamroo
Opportunity
Odoo CRM
crm.lead
1:1BlueCamroo Opportunities linked to Organizations map to Odoo crm.lead records with type = 'opportunity'. The BlueCamroo deal stage maps to Odoo's stage_id within the relevant CRM pipeline, and we create Odoo CRM pipeline stages matching the BlueCamroo pipeline structure before migration. Probability, expected close date, and amount (as float) migrate to crm.lead fields. The Organization link resolves to the Odoo partner_id via the ID mapping table created during the Organization phase.
BlueCamroo
Cases (Support Tickets)
Odoo CRM
helpdesk.ticket
1:1BlueCamroo Cases migrate to Odoo helpdesk.ticket records linked to the customer res.partner via partner_id. BlueCamroo case status (Open, In Progress, Closed, Re-Opened) maps to Odoo ticket stage values, and the original Organization becomes the ticket's customer. Email-to-ticket routing configured in BlueCamroo via Workflow Rules does not migrate; we document the email alias and routing configuration during discovery for manual reconfiguration in Odoo's incoming email server settings. Case priority maps to ticket priority.
BlueCamroo
Project
Odoo CRM
project.project
1:1BlueCamroo Projects map to Odoo project.project records with the project manager and team inherited from the BlueCamroo project owner and assigned users. Project stages migrate as Odoo stage records within the project. BlueCamroo task dependencies become Odoo subtask or dependency links in project.task. Project budget totals migrate as monetary values for reference; Odoo does not have a native budget enforcement field at the project level without the Project Accounting module, so we note this gap in the deliverable documentation.
BlueCamroo
Task
Odoo CRM
project.task
1:1BlueCamroo Tasks inside Projects migrate to Odoo project.task records linked to the parent project.project via project_id. Standalone BlueCamroo CRM Tasks map to project.task records with no project_id and a priority flag. Assignee resolution uses the BlueCamroo owner email matched against the Odoo res.users table; unresolved assignees land in a reconciliation queue for the admin to provision. Subtasks and checklists in BlueCamroo become child project.task records in Odoo with the same parent_id linkage.
BlueCamroo
Time Entry
Odoo CRM
account.analytic.line
1:1BlueCamroo time entries with billable/unbillable flags, hours, and linked project owner migrate to Odoo account.analytic.line records (used by both the Timesheet and Project apps). The employee_id on the timesheet line resolves from the BlueCamroo user email against the Odoo hr.employee table. Billable flag maps to a custom field or the Odoo Analytic Timesheet sheet structure. We preserve the original date, duration, and description. Non-project time entries (e.g., general CRM activity time) are imported as analytic lines without a project reference.
BlueCamroo
Product and Price Book
Odoo CRM
product.template + product.pricelist
1:1BlueCamroo Products and Services lists map to Odoo product.template records with type = 'consu' (consumable) or 'service' as appropriate. Price Books in BlueCamroo with per-account pricing tiers become Odoo product.pricelist records with pricelist items linked to the product.template. We create a base pricelist during migration and note that multi-account tiered pricing requires manual configuration of additional Odoo pricelists by the admin post-migration.
BlueCamroo
Invoice
Odoo CRM
account.move
1:1BlueCamroo invoices generated from project costs, stage percentages, or fixed dates migrate to Odoo account.move records of type 'out_invoice' (for customer invoices) with payment status preserved. Invoice line items resolve the product_id against migrated product.template records and the partner_id against the res.partner mapping. Open invoices migrate with state = 'draft' so the admin can review before posting; paid invoices migrate with state = 'posted' and reconciled payment records where available. Historical invoices that are fully paid require payment matching against the account.bank.statement.line to set state = 'paid'.
BlueCamroo
Custom Forms (Extra Data Objects)
Odoo CRM
Custom fields on standard Odoo models
lossyBlueCamroo Custom Forms (renamed from Extra Data Objects in version 8.3.10) hold custom sub-object data linked to accounts, contacts, projects, and cases. Each Custom Form requires configuration in Odoo via Settings > Technical > Fields: we pre-create the custom fields with appropriate Odoo field types (char, float, text, selection, many2one, etc.) on the target model (crm.lead, res.partner, project.project, project.task, or helpdesk.ticket) before any data import. Custom Form record data then imports via CSV or direct ORM insertion. We query both the Extra Data Object and Custom Forms API endpoints during discovery to ensure no custom data container is missed.
BlueCamroo
User Role
Odoo CRM
res.users + internal contact access
1:1BlueCamroo's per-module subscription model assigns each user a role controlling extension access. When migrating to Odoo, we map BlueCamroo user roles to Odoo res.users records with the appropriate access rights configured in Settings > Users. BlueCamroo CRM-only users become Odoo CRM users; BlueCamroo Complete users become Odoo users with multi-app access. Note that Odoo permissions are controlled per app through the Odoo access rights interface, not a role-extension model like BlueCamroo's per-user per-module billing.
BlueCamroo
Workflow Rule
Odoo CRM
None (not migratable)
1:1BlueCamroo Workflow Rules are configuration records, not data records, and have no export path via the BlueCamroo API or Reports. Every automation a customer has built — case routing, lead nurturing, project stage triggers, email notifications, assignment rules — must be manually recreated in Odoo Automations (or Odoo Studio server actions). We document every active Workflow Rule during discovery: trigger type, condition logic, action sequence, and which records it affects. The deliverable is a written rebuild guide mapped to Odoo's Automations interface. The customer or an Odoo partner rebuilds these post-migration.

Migration approach
Discovery and BlueCamroo version audit
We audit the BlueCamroo workspace across all active modules (CRM, Sales, Projects, Support), custom object containers, user role assignments, and Workflow Rules. We check the BlueCamroo version to determine whether Extra Data Objects or Custom Forms are in use (or both), and we query both API endpoints to confirm no custom container is missed. We extract a complete list of active Workflow Rules, their trigger types, conditions, and actions, for the rebuild documentation. The discovery output is a written migration scope, an Odoo edition recommendation (Odoo Online at $24.90/user/month for SaaS, or Odoo Community for self-hosted), and a schema configuration plan for any Custom Forms.
Odoo schema preparation and custom field configuration
Before any data lands in Odoo, we configure the destination schema. This includes creating Odoo CRM pipeline stages matching the BlueCamroo pipeline structure, configuring Custom Fields (mapped from BlueCamroo Custom Forms) on the relevant Odoo models via Settings > Technical, creating product.template records for BlueCamroo products, setting up project.project stages, and configuring helpdesk.ticket stages for case migration. Schema is validated in an Odoo test database (or Sandbox equivalent) before production configuration begins.
Organization export and partner-company import
We extract BlueCamroo Organizations first, preserving the BlueCamroo record ID, name, address, phone, website, and any Custom Form data attached at the Organization level. The BlueCamroo-ID-to-res.partner-ID lookup table is built immediately after Organizations land in Odoo. This lookup table is the critical dependency for all subsequent imports; it must be validated (row counts, sample record checks) before we proceed to People import.
People import with parent-company resolution
BlueCamroo People records are exported with their Organization ID as a linking field. We apply the BlueCamroo-ID-to-res.partner-ID lookup to set the parent_of field on each Odoo contact, ensuring every Person has a valid company partner in Odoo before the import executes. Fields including name, email, phone, job title, department, and address components migrate to Odoo contact fields. Any BlueCamroo user without a matching Odoo res.users record is placed in a reconciliation queue for the admin to provision.
Opportunity, Case, and Project import
With Organizations and People imported and validated, we migrate Opportunities (as crm.lead records), Cases (as helpdesk.ticket records), and Projects (as project.project records) in sequence. Each import phase resolves the partner_id reference using the ID mapping table, sets the appropriate stage, and preserves amount, probability, priority, and date fields. Task and Time Entry import follows Project import, with employee_id resolved from BlueCamroo user emails against the Odoo hr.employee table.
Cutover, delta migration, and Workflow rebuild handoff
We freeze BlueCamroo write access during the cutover window, run a final delta migration for any records modified during the migration process, then enable Odoo as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow Rule inventory document to the customer's admin team with Odoo Automations rebuild instructions for each rule. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild BlueCamroo Workflow Rules as Odoo Automations inside the migration scope; that work is scoped separately or handled by the customer's Odoo partner.
