+Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
+
+Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and

+
+     Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
+     intended for use by those authorized to give the public
+     permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
+     copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
+     irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms

+     Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before

+     such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
+     Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
+     respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations

+
+
+Section 2 -- Scope.
+
+  a. License grant.
+
+       1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
+          the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
+          non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
+          exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
+
+            a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
+               in part; and
+
+            b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
+
+       2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
+          Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
+          License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
+          its terms and conditions.
+
+       3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
+          6(a).
+
+       4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
+          Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
+          all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
+          and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
+          Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
+          authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
+          necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
+          technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
+          Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
+          simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
+          (4) never produces Adapted Material.
+
+       5. Downstream recipients.
+
+            a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
+               recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
+               receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
+               Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
+               Public License.
+
+            b. Additional offer from the Licensor -- Adapted Material.
+               Every recipient of Adapted Material from You
+               automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to
+               exercise the Licensed Rights in the Adapted Material
+               under the conditions of the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+            c. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
+               any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
+               apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
+               Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
+               Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
+               Material.
+
+       6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
+          may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
+          are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
+          with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
+          the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
+          provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
+
+  b. Other rights.
+
+       1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
+          licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
+          privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
+          the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
+          assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
+          extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
+          Rights, but not otherwise.
+
+       2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
+          Public License.
+
+       3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
+          collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
+          Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
+          under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
+          licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
+          reserves any right to collect such royalties.
+
+
+Section 3 -- License Conditions.
+
+Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
+following conditions.
+
+  a. Attribution.
+
+       1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
+          form), You must:
+
+            a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
+               with the Licensed Material:
+
+                 i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed
+                    Material and any others designated to receive
+                    attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by
+                    the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
+                    designated);
+
+                ii. a copyright notice;
+
+               iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
+
+                iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of
+                    warranties;
+
+                 v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
+                    extent reasonably practicable;
+
+            b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
+               retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
+
+            c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
+               Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
+               hyperlink to, this Public License.
+
+       2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
+          reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
+          which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
+          reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
+          hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
+          information.
+
+       3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
+          information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
+          reasonably practicable.
+
+  b. ShareAlike.
+
+     In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share
+     Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
+
+       1. The Adapter's License You apply must be a Creative Commons
+          license with the same License Elements, this version or
+          later, or a BY-SA Compatible License.
+
+       2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the
+          Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition
+          in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and
+          context in which You Share Adapted Material.
+
+       3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms
+          or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological
+          Measures to, Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the
+          rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+
+Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.
+
+Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
+apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
+
+  a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
+     to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
+     portion of the contents of the database;
+
+  b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
+     contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
+     Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
+     Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material,
+     including for purposes of Section 3(b); and
+
+  c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
+     all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
+
+For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
+replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
+Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
+
+
+Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
+
+  a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
+     EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
+     AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
+     ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
+     IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
+     WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+     PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
+     ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
+     KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
+     ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+  b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
+     TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
+     NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
+     INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
+     COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
+     USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
+     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
+     DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
+     IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
+
+  c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
+     above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
+     possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
+     waiver of all liability.
+
+
+Section 6 -- Term and Termination.
+
+  a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
+     Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
+     this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
+     terminate automatically.
+
+  b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
+     Section 6(a), it reinstates:
+
+       1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
+          it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
+          violation; or
+
+       2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
+
+     For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
+     right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
+     of this Public License.
+
+  c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
+     Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
+     distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
+     will not terminate this Public License.
+
+  d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
+     License.
+
+
+Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions.
+
+  a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
+     terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.
+
+  b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the
+     Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and
+     independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.
+
+
+Section 8 -- Interpretation.
+
+  a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and
+     shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose
+     conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully
+     be made without permission under this Public License.
+
+  b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
+     deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
+     minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
+     cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
+     without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
+     conditions.
+
+  c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
+     failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
+     Licensor.
+
+  d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted
+     as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities
+     that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal
+     processes of any jurisdiction or authority.

+===================
 
 These guides provide instructions on how to install, maintain and upgrade Odoo databases.
 
 .. seealso::
-    :doc:`History of Versions <administration/maintain/supported_versions>`
+    :doc:`History of Versions <administration/supported_versions>`
+
+Installation
+============
+
+Depending on the intended use case, there are multiple ways to install Odoo - or not install it at
+all.
+
+- :doc:`Online <administration/odoo_online>` is the easiest way to use Odoo in production or to try it.
+
+- :doc:`Packaged installers <administration/on_premise/packages>` are suitable for testing Odoo and
+  developing modules. They can be used for long-term production with additional deployment and
+  maintenance work.
+
+- :doc:`Source install <administration/on_premise/source>` provides greater flexibility, as it
+  allows, for example, running multiple Odoo versions on the same system. It is adequate to develop
+  modules and can be used as a base for production deployment.
+
+- A `Docker <https://hub.docker.com/_/odoo/>`_ base image is available for development or
+  deployment.
+
+.. _install/editions:
+
+Editions
+========
+
+There are two different editions.
+
+**Odoo Community** is the free and open-source version of the software, licensed under the `GNU
+LGPLv3 <https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/master/LICENSE>`_. It is the core upon which Odoo
+Enterprise is built.
+
+**Odoo Enterprise** is the shared source version of the software, giving access to more
+functionalities, including functional support, upgrades, and hosting. `Pricing
+<https://www.odoo.com/pricing-plan>`_ starts from one app free.
+
+.. tip::
+   :doc:`Switch from Community to Enterprise <administration/on_premise/community_to_enterprise>` at
+   any time (except for the source install).

+Change hosting solution
+=======================
+
+The instructions to change the hosting type of a database depend on the current solution used and to
+which solution the database should be moved.
+
+Transferring an on-premise database
+===================================
+
+To Odoo Online
+--------------
+
+.. important::
+   - Odoo Online is *not* compatible with **non-standard apps**.
+   - The database's current version must be :doc:`supported <supported_versions>`.
+
+#. Create a :ref:`duplicate of the database <on-premise/duplicate>`.
+#. In this duplicate, uninstall all **non-standard apps**.
+#. Use the database manager to grab a *dump with filestore*.
+#. `Submit a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ including the following:
+
+   - your **subscription number**,
+   - the **URL** you want to use for the database (e.g., `company.odoo.com`), and
+   - the **dump** as an attachment or as a link to the file (required for 60 MB+ files).
+
+#. Odoo then makes sure the database is compatible before putting it online. In case of technical
+   issues during the process, Odoo might contact you.
+
+.. note::
+   If you have time constraints, `submit a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ as soon as
+   possible to schedule the transfer.
+
+To Odoo.sh
+----------
+
+Follow the instructions found in :ref:`the Import your database section
+<odoo_sh_import_your_database>` of the Odoo.sh *Create your project* documentation.
+
+Transferring an Odoo Online database
+====================================
+
+.. important::
+   Odoo Online's :ref:`intermediary versions <supported_versions>` are not supported by Odoo.sh or
+   on-premise. Therefore, if the database to transfer is running an intermediary version, it must be
+   upgraded first to the next :ref:`major version <supported_versions>`, waiting for its release if
+   necessary.
+
+   .. example::
+      Transferring an online database running on Odoo 16.3 would require first upgrading it to Odoo
+      17.0.
+
+   .. tip::
+      Click the gear icon (:guilabel:`⚙`) next to the database name on the `Odoo Online database
+      manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases/>`_ to display its version number.
+
+   .. warning::
+      If there is an active Odoo subscription linked to the database being migrated, reach out to
+      the Customer Service Manager or `submit a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_  to
+      complete the subscription transfer.
+
+To on-premise
+-------------
+
+#. Sign in to `the Odoo Online database manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases/>`_ and click the
+   gear icon (:guilabel:`⚙`) next to the database name to :guilabel:`Download` a backup. If the
+   download fails due to the file being too large, `contact Odoo support
+   <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_.
+#. Restore the database from the database manager on your local server using the backup.
+
+To Odoo.sh
+----------
+
+#. Sign in to `the Odoo Online database manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases/>`_ and click the
+   gear icon (:guilabel:`⚙`) next to the database name to :guilabel:`Download` a backup. If the
+   download fails due to the file being too large, `contact Odoo support
+   <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_.
+#. Follow the instructions found in :ref:`the Import your database section
+   <odoo_sh_import_your_database>` of the Odoo.sh *Create your project* documentation.
+
+Transferring an Odoo.sh database
+================================
+
+To Odoo Online
+--------------
+
+.. important::
+   Odoo Online is *not* compatible with **non-standard apps**.
+
+#. Uninstall all **non-standard apps** in a staging build before doing it in the production build.
+#. `Create a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ including the following:
+
+   - your **subscription number**,
+   - the **URL** you want to use for the database (e.g., `company.odoo.com`),
+   - which **branch** should be migrated,
+   - in which **region** you want the database to be hosted (Americas, Europe, or Asia),
+   - which user(s) will be the **administrator(s)**, and
+   - **when** (and in which timezone) you want the database to be up and running.
+
+#. Odoo then makes sure the database is compatible before putting it online. In case of technical
+   issues during the process, Odoo might contact you.
+
+.. note::
+   - If you have time constraints, `submit a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ as soon as
+     possible to schedule the transfer.
+   - Select the **region** closest to most of your users to reduce latency.
+   - Future **administrator(s)** must have an Odoo.com account.
+   - The **date and time** you want the database to be up and running are helpful to organize the
+     switch from the Odoo.sh server to the Odoo Online servers.
+   - Databases are **not reachable** during their migration.
+
+To on-premise
+-------------
+
+#. Download a :ref:`backup of your Odoo.sh production database <odoo_sh_branches_backups>`.
+#. Restore the database from the database manager on your local server using the backup.

-Odoo is a multi-tenant system: a single Odoo system may run and serve a number
-of database instances. It is also highly customizable, with customizations
-(starting from the modules being loaded) depending on the "current database".
-
-This is not an issue when working with the backend (web client) as a logged-in
-company user: the database can be selected when logging in, and customizations
-loaded afterwards.
-
-However it is an issue for non-logged users (portal, website) which aren't
-bound to a database: Odoo needs to know which database should be used to load
-the website page or perform the operation. If multi-tenancy is not used that is not an
-issue, there's only one database to use, but if there are multiple databases
-accessible Odoo needs a rule to know which one it should use.
-
-That is one of the purposes of :option:`--db-filter <odoo-bin --db-filter>`:
-it specifies how the database should be selected based on the hostname (domain)
-that is being requested. The value is a `regular expression`_, possibly
-including the dynamically injected hostname (``%h``) or the first subdomain
-(``%d``) through which the system is being accessed.
-
-For servers hosting multiple databases in production, especially if ``website``
-is used, dbfilter **must** be set, otherwise a number of features will not work
-correctly.
-
-Configuration samples
----------------------
-
-* Show only databases with names beginning with 'mycompany'
-
-in ``/etc/odoo.conf`` set:
-
-.. code-block:: ini
-
-  [options]
-  dbfilter = ^mycompany.*$
-
-* Show only databases matching the first subdomain after ``www``: for example
-  the database "mycompany" will be shown if the incoming request
-  was sent to ``www.mycompany.com`` or ``mycompany.co.uk``, but not
-  for ``www2.mycompany.com`` or ``helpdesk.mycompany.com``.
-
-in ``/etc/odoo.conf`` set:
-
-.. code-block:: ini
-
-  [options]
-  dbfilter = ^%d$
-
-.. note::
-
-  Setting a proper :option:`--db-filter <odoo-bin --db-filter>` is an important part
-  of securing your deployment.
-  Once it is correctly working and only matching a single database per hostname, it
-  is strongly recommended to block access to the database manager screens,
-  and to use the ``--no-database-list`` startup parameter to prevent listing
-  your databases, and to block access to the database management screens.

-PostgreSQL
-==========
-
-By default, PostgreSQL only allows connection over UNIX sockets and loopback
-connections (from "localhost", the same machine the PostgreSQL server is
-installed on).
-
-UNIX socket is fine if you want Odoo and PostgreSQL to execute on the same
-machine, and is the default when no host is provided, but if you want Odoo and
-PostgreSQL to execute on different machines [#different-machines]_ it will
-need to `listen to network interfaces`_ [#remote-socket]_, either:
-
-* Only accept loopback connections and `use an SSH tunnel`_ between the
-  machine on which Odoo runs and the one on which PostgreSQL runs, then
-  configure Odoo to connect to its end of the tunnel
-* Accept connections to the machine on which Odoo is installed, possibly
-  over ssl (see `PostgreSQL connection settings`_ for details), then configure
-  Odoo to connect over the network
-
-Configuration sample
---------------------
-
-* Allow tcp connection on localhost
-* Allow tcp connection from 192.168.1.x network

-
-Configuring Odoo
-----------------
-
-Out of the box, Odoo connects to a local postgres over UNIX socket via port
-5432. This can be overridden using :ref:`the database options
-<reference/cmdline/server/database>` when your Postgres deployment is not
-local and/or does not use the installation defaults.
-
-The :ref:`packaged installers <setup/install/packaged>` will automatically
-create a new user (``odoo``) and set it as the database user.
-
-* The database management screens are protected by the ``admin_passwd``
-  setting. This setting can only be set using configuration files, and is
-  simply checked before performing database alterations. It should be set to
-  a randomly generated value to ensure third parties can not use this
-  interface.
-* All database operations use the :ref:`database options
-  <reference/cmdline/server/database>`, including the database management
-  screen. For the database management screen to work requires that the PostgreSQL user
-  have ``createdb`` right.
-* Users can always drop databases they own. For the database management screen
-  to be completely non-functional, the PostgreSQL user needs to be created with
-  ``no-createdb`` and the database must be owned by a different PostgreSQL user.
-
-  .. warning:: the PostgreSQL user *must not* be a superuser
-
-Configuration sample
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* connect to a PostgreSQL server on 192.168.1.2
-* port 5432
-* using an 'odoo' user account,
-* with 'pwd' as a password
-* filtering only db with a name beginning with 'mycompany'
-
-in ``/etc/odoo.conf`` set:
-
-.. code-block:: ini
-
-  [options]
-  admin_passwd = mysupersecretpassword
-  db_host = 192.168.1.2
-  db_port = 5432
-  db_user = odoo
-  db_password = pwd
-  dbfilter = ^mycompany.*$
-
-.. _postgresql_ssl_connect:
-
-SSL Between Odoo and PostgreSQL
--------------------------------
-
-Since Odoo 11.0, you can enforce ssl connection between Odoo and PostgreSQL.
-in Odoo the db_sslmode control the ssl security of the connection
-with value chosen out of 'disable', 'allow', 'prefer', 'require', 'verify-ca'
-or 'verify-full'
-
-`PostgreSQL Doc <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/static/libpq-ssl.html>`_
-
-.. _builtin_server:
-
-Builtin server
-==============
-
-Odoo includes built-in HTTP servers, using either multithreading or
-multiprocessing.
-
-For production use, it is recommended to use the multiprocessing server as it
-increases stability, makes somewhat better use of computing resources and can
-be better monitored and resource-restricted.
-
-* Multiprocessing is enabled by configuring :option:`a non-zero number of
-  worker processes <odoo-bin --workers>`, the number of workers should be based
-  on the number of cores in the machine (possibly with some room for cron
-  workers depending on how much cron work is predicted)
-* Worker limits can be configured based on the hardware configuration to avoid
-  resources exhaustion
-
-.. warning:: multiprocessing mode currently isn't available on Windows
-
-Worker number calculation
--------------------------
-
-* Rule of thumb : (#CPU * 2) + 1
-* Cron workers need CPU
-* 1 worker ~= 6 concurrent users
-
-memory size calculation
------------------------
-
-* We consider 20% of the requests are heavy requests, while 80% are simpler ones
-* A heavy worker, when all computed field are well designed, SQL requests are well designed, ... is estimated to consume around 1GB of RAM
-* A lighter worker, in the same scenario, is estimated to consume around 150MB of RAM
-
-Needed RAM = #worker * ( (light_worker_ratio * light_worker_ram_estimation) + (heavy_worker_ratio * heavy_worker_ram_estimation) )
-
-LiveChat
---------
-
-In multiprocessing, a dedicated LiveChat worker is automatically started and
-listening on :option:`the gevent port <odoo-bin --gevent-port>` but
-the client will not connect to it.
-
-Instead you must have a proxy redirecting requests whose URL starts with
-``/websocket/`` to the gevent port. Other request should be proxied to
-the :option:`normal HTTP port <odoo-bin --http-port>`
-
-To achieve such a thing, you'll need to deploy a reverse proxy in front of Odoo,
-like nginx or apache. When doing so, you'll need to forward some more http Headers
-to Odoo, and activate the proxy_mode in Odoo configuration to have Odoo read those
-headers.
-
-Configuration sample
---------------------
-
-* Server with 4 CPU, 8 Thread
-* 60 concurrent users
-
-* 60 users / 6 = 10 <- theoretical number of worker needed
-* (4 * 2) + 1 = 9 <- theoretical maximal number of worker
-* We'll use 8 workers + 1 for cron. We'll also use a monitoring system to measure cpu load, and check if it's between 7 and 7.5 .
-* RAM = 9 * ((0.8*150) + (0.2*1024)) ~= 3Go RAM for Odoo
-
-in ``/etc/odoo.conf``:
-
-.. code-block:: ini
-
-  [options]
-  limit_memory_hard = 1677721600
-  limit_memory_soft = 629145600
-  limit_request = 8192
-  limit_time_cpu = 600
-  limit_time_real = 1200
-  max_cron_threads = 1
-  workers = 8
-
-.. _https_proxy:
-
-HTTPS
-=====
-
-Whether it's accessed via website/web client or web service, Odoo transmits
-authentication information in cleartext. This means a secure deployment of
-Odoo must use HTTPS\ [#switching]_. SSL termination can be implemented via
-just about any SSL termination proxy, but requires the following setup:
-
-* Enable Odoo's :option:`proxy mode <odoo-bin --proxy-mode>`. This should only be enabled when Odoo is behind a reverse proxy
-* Set up the SSL termination proxy (`Nginx termination example`_)
-* Set up the proxying itself (`Nginx proxying example`_)
-* Your SSL termination proxy should also automatically redirect non-secure
-  connections to the secure port

-
-Odoo as a WSGI Application
-==========================
-
-It is also possible to mount Odoo as a standard WSGI_ application. Odoo
-provides the base for a WSGI launcher script as ``odoo-wsgi.example.py``. That
-script should be customized (possibly after copying it from the setup directory) to correctly set the
-configuration directly in :mod:`odoo.tools.config` rather than through the
-command-line or a configuration file.
-
-However the WSGI server will only expose the main HTTP endpoint for the web
-client, website and webservice API. Because Odoo does not control the creation
-of workers anymore it can not setup cron or livechat workers
-
-Cron Workers
-------------
-
-To run cron jobs for an Odoo deployment as a WSGI application requires
-
-* A classical Odoo (run via ``odoo-bin``)
-* Connected to the database in which cron jobs have to be run (via
-  :option:`odoo-bin -d`)
-* Which should not be exposed to the network. To ensure cron runners are not
-  network-accessible, it is possible to disable the built-in HTTP server
-  entirely with :option:`odoo-bin --no-http` or setting ``http_enable = False``
-  in the configuration file
-
-LiveChat
---------
-
-The second problematic subsystem for WSGI deployments is the LiveChat: where
-most HTTP connections are relatively short and quickly free up their worker
-process for the next request, LiveChat require a long-lived connection for
-each client in order to implement near-real-time notifications.
-
-This is in conflict with the process-based worker model, as it will tie
-up worker processes and prevent new users from accessing the system. However,
-those long-lived connections do very little and mostly stay parked waiting for
-notifications.
-
-The solutions to support livechat/motifications in a WSGI application are:
-
-* Deploy a threaded version of Odoo (instead of a process-based preforking
-  one) and redirect only requests to URLs starting with ``/websocket/`` to
-  that Odoo, this is the simplest and the websocket URL can double up as the cron
-  instance.
-* Deploy an evented Odoo via ``odoo-gevent`` and proxy requests starting
-  with ``/websocket/`` to
-  :option:`the gevent port <odoo-bin --gevent-port>`.
-
-.. _deploy/streaming:
-
-Serving static files and attachments
-====================================
-
-For development convenience, Odoo directly serves all static files and attachments in its modules.
-This may not be ideal when it comes to performances, and static files should generally be served by
-a static HTTP server.
-
-Serving static files
---------------------
-
-Odoo static files are located in each module's :file:`static/` folder, so static files can be served
-by intercepting all requests to :samp:`/{MODULE}/static/{FILE}`, and looking up the right module
-(and file) in the various addons paths.
-
-.. example::
-   Say Odoo has been installed via the **debian packages** for Community and Enterprise and the
-   :option:`--addons-path <odoo-bin --addons-path>` is ``'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/odoo/addons'``.
-
-   Using the above NGINX (https) configuration, the following location block should be added to
-   serve static files via NGINX.
-
-   .. code-block:: nginx
-
-       location @odoo {
-           # copy-paste the content of the / location block
-       }
-
-       # Serve static files right away
-       location ~ ^/[^/]+/static/.+$ {
-           root /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/odoo/addons;
-           try_files $uri @odoo;
-           expires 24h;
-       }
-
-.. example::
-   Say Odoo has been installed via the **source**. The two git repositories for Community and
-   Enterprise have been cloned in :file:`/opt/odoo/community` and :file:`/opt/odoo/enterprise`
-   respectively and the :option:`--addons-path <odoo-bin --addons-path>` is
-   ``'/opt/odoo/community/odoo/addons,/opt/odoo/community/addons,/opt/odoo/enterprise'``.
-
-   Using the above NGINX (https) configuration, the following location block should be added to
-   serve static files via NGINX.
-
-   .. code-block:: nginx
-
-       location @odoo {
-           # copy-paste the content of the / location block
-       }
-
-       # Serve static files right away
-       location ~ ^/[^/]+/static/.+$ {
-           root /opt/odoo;
-           try_files /community/odoo/addons$uri /community/addons$uri /enterprise$uri @odoo;
-           expires 24h;
-       }
-
-.. warning::
-   The actual NGINX configuration you need is highly dependent on your own installation. The two
-   above snippets only highlight two possible configurations and may not be used as-is.
-
-Serving attachments
--------------------
-
-Attachments are files stored in the filestore which access is regulated by Odoo. They cannot be
-directly accessed via a static web server as accessing them requires multiple lookups in the
-database to determine where the files are stored and whether the current user can access them or
-not.
-
-Nevertheless, once the file has been located and the access rights verified by Odoo, it is a good
-idea to serve the file using the static web server instead of Odoo. For Odoo to delegate serving
-files to the static web server, the `X-Sendfile <https://tn123.org/mod_xsendfile/>`_ (apache) or
-`X-Accel <https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/x-accel/>`_ (nginx) extensions
-must be enabled and configured on the static web server. Once it is set up, start Odoo with the
-:option:`--x-sendfile <odoo-bin --x-sendfile>` CLI flag (this unique flag is used for both
-X-Sendfile and X-Accel).
-
-
-.. note::
-   - The X-Sendfile extension for apache (and compatible web servers) does not require any
-     supplementary configuration.
-   - The X-Accel extension for NGINX **does** require the following additionnal configuration:
-
-     .. code-block:: nginx
-
-         location /web/filestore {
-             internal;
-             alias /path/to/odoo/data-dir/filestore;
-         }
-
-     In case you don't know what is the path to your filestore, start Odoo with the
-     :option:`--x-sendfile <odoo-bin --x-sendfile>` option and navigate to the ``/web/filestore`` URL
-     directly via Odoo (don't navigate to the URL via NGINX). This logs a warnings, the message
-     contains the configuration you need.
-
-
-.. _security:
-
-Security
-========
-
-For starters, keep in mind that securing an information system is a continuous process,
-not a one-shot operation. At any moment, you will only be as secure as the weakest link
-in your environment.
-
-So please do not take this section as the ultimate list of measures that will prevent
-all security problems. It's only intended as a summary of the first important things
-you should be sure to include in your security action plan. The rest will come
-from best security practices for your operating system and distribution,
-best practices in terms of users, passwords, and access control management, etc.
-
-When deploying an internet-facing server, please be sure to consider the following
-security-related topics:
-
-- Always set a strong super-admin admin password, and restrict access to the database
-  management pages as soon as the system is set up. See :ref:`db_manager_security`.
-
-- Choose unique logins and strong passwords for all administrator accounts on all databases.
-  Do not use 'admin' as the login. Do not use those logins for day-to-day operations,
-  only for controlling/managing the installation.
-  *Never* use any default passwords like admin/admin, even for test/staging databases.
-
-- Do **not** install demo data on internet-facing servers. Databases with demo data contain
-  default logins and passwords that can be used to get into your systems and cause significant
-  trouble, even on staging/dev systems.
-
-- Use appropriate database filters ( :option:`--db-filter <odoo-bin --db-filter>`)
-  to restrict the visibility of your databases according to the hostname.
-  See :ref:`db_filter`.
-  You may also use :option:`-d <odoo-bin -d>` to provide your own (comma-separated)
-  list of available databases to filter from, instead of letting the system fetch
-  them all from the database backend.
-
-- Once your ``db_name`` and ``db_filter`` are configured and only match a single database
-  per hostname, you should set ``list_db`` configuration option to ``False``, to prevent
-  listing databases entirely, and to block access to the database management screens
-  (this is also exposed as the :option:`--no-database-list <odoo-bin --no-database-list>`
-  command-line option)
-
-- Make sure the PostgreSQL user (:option:`--db_user <odoo-bin --db_user>`) is *not* a super-user,
-  and that your databases are owned by a different user. For example they could be owned by
-  the ``postgres`` super-user if you are using a dedicated non-privileged ``db_user``.
-  See also :ref:`setup/deploy/odoo`.
-
-- Keep installations updated by regularly installing the latest builds,
-  either via GitHub or by downloading the latest version from
-  https://www.odoo.com/page/download or http://nightly.odoo.com
-
-- Configure your server in multi-process mode with proper limits matching your typical
-  usage (memory/CPU/timeouts). See also :ref:`builtin_server`.
-
-- Run Odoo behind a web server providing HTTPS termination with a valid SSL certificate,
-  in order to prevent eavesdropping on cleartext communications. SSL certificates are
-  cheap, and many free options exist.
-  Configure the web proxy to limit the size of requests, set appropriate timeouts,
-  and then enable the :option:`proxy mode <odoo-bin --proxy-mode>` option.
-  See also :ref:`https_proxy`.
-
-- If you need to allow remote SSH access to your servers, make sure to set a strong password
-  for **all** accounts, not just `root`. It is strongly recommended to entirely disable
-  password-based authentication, and only allow public key authentication. Also consider
-  restricting access via a VPN, allowing only trusted IPs in the firewall, and/or
-  running a brute-force detection system such as `fail2ban` or equivalent.
-
-- Consider installing appropriate rate-limiting on your proxy or firewall, to prevent
-  brute-force attacks and denial of service attacks. See also :ref:`login_brute_force`
-  for specific measures.
-
-  Many network providers provide automatic mitigation for Distributed Denial of
-  Service attacks (DDOS), but this is often an optional service, so you should consult
-  with them.
-
-- Whenever possible, host your public-facing demo/test/staging instances on different
-  machines than the production ones. And apply the same security precautions as for
-  production.
-
-- If your public-facing Odoo server has access to sensitive internal network resources
-  or services (e.g. via a private VLAN), implement appropriate firewall rules to
-  protect those internal resources. This will ensure that the Odoo server cannot
-  be used accidentally (or as a result of malicious user actions) to access or disrupt
-  those internal resources.
-  Typically this can be done by applying an outbound default DENY rule on the firewall,
-  then only explicitly authorizing access to internal resources that the Odoo server
-  needs to access.
-  `Systemd IP traffic access control <http://0pointer.net/blog/ip-accounting-and-access-lists-with-systemd.html>`_
-  may also be useful to implement per-process network access control.
-
-- If your public-facing Odoo server is behind a Web Application Firewall, a load-balancer,
-  a transparent DDoS protection service (like CloudFlare) or a similar network-level
-  device, you may wish to avoid direct access to the Odoo system. It is generally
-  difficult to keep the endpoint IP addresses of your Odoo servers secret. For example
-  they can appear in web server logs when querying public systems, or in the headers
-  of emails posted from Odoo.
-  In such a situation you may want to configure your firewall so that the endpoints
-  are not accessible publicly except from the specific IP addresses of your WAF,
-  load-balancer or proxy service. Service providers like CloudFlare usually maintain
-  a public list of their IP address ranges for this purpose.
-
-- If you are hosting multiple customers, isolate customer data and files from each other
-  using containers or appropriate "jail" techniques.
-
-- Setup daily backups of your databases and filestore data, and copy them to a remote
-  archiving server that is not accessible from the server itself.
-
-
-.. _login_brute_force:
-
-Blocking Brute Force Attacks
-----------------------------
-
-For internet-facing deployments, brute force attacks on user passwords are very common, and this
-threat should not be neglected for Odoo servers. Odoo emits a log entry whenever a login attempt
-is performed, and reports the result: success or failure, along with the target login and source IP.
-
-The log entries will have the following form.
-
-Failed login::
-
-      2018-07-05 14:56:31,506 24849 INFO db_name odoo.addons.base.res.res_users: Login failed for db:db_name login:admin from 127.0.0.1
-
-Successful login::
-
-      2018-07-05 14:56:31,506 24849 INFO db_name odoo.addons.base.res.res_users: Login successful for db:db_name login:admin from 127.0.0.1
-
-
-These logs can be easily analyzed by an intrusion prevention system such as `fail2ban`.
-
-For example, the following fail2ban filter definition should match a
-failed login::

-
-Database Manager Security
--------------------------
-
-:ref:`setup/deploy/odoo` mentioned ``admin_passwd`` in passing.
-
-This setting is used on all database management screens (to create, delete,
-dump or restore databases).
-
-If the management screens must not be accessible at all, you should set ``list_db``
-configuration option to ``False``, to block access to all the database selection and
-management screens.
-
-.. warning::
-
-  It is strongly recommended to disable the Database Manager for any internet-facing
-  system! It is meant as a development/demo tool, to make it easy to quickly create
-  and manage databases. It is not designed for use in production, and may even expose
-  dangerous features to attackers. It is also not designed to handle large databases,
-  and may trigger memory limits.
-
-  On production systems, database management operations should always be performed by
-  the system administrator, including provisioning of new databases and automated backups.
-
-Be sure to setup an appropriate ``db_name`` parameter
-(and optionally, ``db_filter`` too) so that the system can determine the target database
-for each request, otherwise users will be blocked as they won't be allowed to choose the
-database themselves.
-
-If the management screens must only be accessible from a selected set of machines,
-use the proxy server's features to block access to all routes starting with ``/web/database``
-except (maybe) ``/web/database/selector`` which displays the database-selection screen.
-
-If the database-management screen should be left accessible, the
-``admin_passwd`` setting must be changed from its ``admin`` default: this
-password is checked before allowing database-alteration operations.
-
-It should be stored securely, and should be generated randomly e.g.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ python3 -c 'import base64, os; print(base64.b64encode(os.urandom(24)))'
-
-which will generate a 32 characters pseudorandom printable string.
-
-Supported Browsers
-==================
-
-Odoo supports all the major desktop and mobile browsers available on the market,
-as long as they are supported by their publishers.
-
-Here are the supported browsers:
-
-- Google Chrome
-- Mozilla Firefox
-- Microsoft Edge
-- Apple Safari
-
-.. warning:: Please make sure your browser is up-to-date and still supported by
-    its publisher before filing a bug report.
-
-.. note::
-
-    Since Odoo 13.0, ES6 is supported.  Therefore, IE support is dropped.
-
-.. [#different-machines]
-    to have multiple Odoo installations use the same PostgreSQL database,
-    or to provide more computing resources to both software.
-.. [#remote-socket]
-    technically a tool like socat_ can be used to proxy UNIX sockets across
-    networks, but that is mostly for software which can only be used over
-    UNIX sockets
-.. [#switching]
-    or be accessible only over an internal packet-switched network, but that
-    requires secured switches, protections against `ARP spoofing`_ and
-    precludes usage of WiFi. Even over secure packet-switched networks,
-    deployment over HTTPS is recommended, and possible costs are lowered as
-    "self-signed" certificates are easier to deploy on a controlled
-    environment than over the internet.

-Installing Odoo
-===============
-
-There are multiple ways to install Odoo, or not install it at all, depending
-on the intended use case.
-
-This documents attempts to describe most of the installation options.
-
-:ref:`setup/install/online`
-    The easiest way to use Odoo in production or to try it.
-
-:ref:`setup/install/packaged`
-    Suitable for testing Odoo, developing modules and can be used for
-    long-term production use with additional deployment and maintenance work.
-
-:ref:`setup/install/source`
-    Provides greater flexibility:  e.g. allow multiple running Odoo versions on
-    the same system. Good for developing modules, can be used as base for
-    production deployment.
-
-:ref:`setup/install/docker`
-    If you usually use docker_ for development or deployment, an official
-    docker_ base image is available.
-
-
-.. _setup/install/editions:
-
-Editions
-========
-
-There are two different Editions_ of Odoo: the Community and Enterprise versions.
-Using the Enterprise version is possible on `Odoo Online`_ and accessing the code is
-restricted to Enterprise customers and partners. The Community version is freely
-available to anyone.
-
-If you already use the Community version and wish to upgrade to Enterprise, please
-refer to :ref:`setup/enterprise` (except for :ref:`setup/install/source`).
-
-
-.. _setup/install/online:
-
-Online
-======
-
-Demo
-----
-
-To simply get a quick idea of Odoo, demo_ instances are available. They are
-shared instances which only live for a few hours, and can be used to browse
-around and try things out with no commitment.
-
-Demo_ instances require no local installation, just a web browser.
-
-Odoo Online
------------
-
-Trivial to start with, fully managed and migrated by Odoo S.A., `Odoo Online`_
-provides private instances and starts out free. It can be used to discover and
-test Odoo and do non-code customizations (i.e. incompatible with custom modules
-or the Odoo Apps Store) without having to install it locally.
-
-Can be used for both testing Odoo and long-term production use.
-
-Like demo_ instances, `Odoo Online`_ instances require no local installation, a web
-browser is sufficient.
-
-
-.. _setup/install/packaged:
-
-Packaged installers
-===================
-
-Odoo provides packaged installers for Windows, deb-based distributions
-(Debian, Ubuntu, …) and RPM-based distributions (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, …) for
-both the Community and Enterprise versions.
-
-These packages automatically set up all dependencies (for the Community version),
-but may be difficult to keep up-to-date.
-
-Official Community packages with all relevant dependency requirements are
-available on our nightly_ server. Both Community and Enterprise packages can
-be downloaded from our download_ page (you must to be logged in as a paying
-customer or partner to download the Enterprise packages).
-
-Windows
--------
-
-#. Download the installer from our nightly_ server (Community only) or the Windows installer from
-   the download_ page (any edition).
-#. Execute the downloaded file.
-
-   .. warning::
-      | On Windows 8 and later you may see a warning titled "Windows protected your PC".
-      | Click on **More Info** and then on **Run anyway**.
-
-#. Accept the UAC_ prompt.
-#. Go through the various installation steps.
-
-Odoo will automatically be started at the end of the installation.

-
-      Odoo needs a `PostgreSQL`_ server to run properly. The default configuration for
-      the Odoo 'deb' package is to use the PostgreSQL server on the same host as your
-      Odoo instance. Execute the following command in order to install the PostgreSQL server:
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-         $ sudo apt install postgresql -y
-
-   .. group-tab:: Fedora
-
-      Odoo needs a `PostgreSQL`_ server to run properly. Make sure that the `sudo` command is
-      available and well configured and, only then, execute the following command in order to
-      install the PostgreSQL server:
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-         $ sudo dnf install -y postgresql-server
-         $ sudo postgresql-setup --initdb --unit postgresql
-         $ sudo systemctl enable postgresql
-         $ sudo systemctl start postgresql
-
-.. warning::
-   `wkhtmltopdf` is not installed through **pip** and must be installed manually in version `0.12.5
-   <the wkhtmltopdf download page_>`_ for it to support headers and footers. See our `wiki
-   <https://github.com/odoo/odoo/wiki/Wkhtmltopdf>`_ for more details on the various versions.

-Repository
-~~~~~~~~~~
-
-.. tabs::
-
-   .. group-tab:: Debian/Ubuntu
-
-      Odoo S.A. provides a repository that can be used with Debian and Ubuntu distributions. It can
-      be used to install *Odoo Community Edition* by executing the following commands:
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-          $ wget -q -O - https://nightly.odoo.com/odoo.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/odoo-archive-keyring.gpg
-          $ echo 'deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/odoo-archive-keyring.gpg] https://nightly.odoo.com/{CURRENT_MAJOR_BRANCH}/nightly/deb/ ./' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/odoo.list
-          $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install odoo
-
-      You can then use the usual `apt-get upgrade` command to keep your installation up-to-date.
-
-   .. group-tab:: Fedora
-
-      Odoo S.A. provides a repository that can be used with the Fedora distributions. It can be used
-      to install *Odoo Community Edition* by executing the following commands:
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-         $ sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://nightly.odoo.com/{CURRENT_MAJOR_BRANCH}/nightly/rpm/odoo.repo
-         $ sudo dnf install -y odoo
-         $ sudo systemctl enable odoo
-         $ sudo systemctl start odoo
-
-.. note::
-   At this moment, there is no nightly repository for the Enterprise Edition.
-
-Distribution package
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-.. tabs::
-
-   .. group-tab:: Debian/Ubuntu
-
-      Instead of using the repository as described above, the 'deb' packages for both the
-      *Community* and *Enterprise* editions can be downloaded from the `official download page
-      <download_>`_.
-
-      .. note::
-         Odoo {CURRENT_MAJOR_VERSION} 'deb' package currently supports `Debian 11 (Bullseye)`_,
-         `Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy)`_ or above.
-
-      Next, execute the following commands **as root**:
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-         # dpkg -i <path_to_installation_package> # this probably fails with missing dependencies
-         # apt-get install -f # should install the missing dependencies
-         # dpkg -i <path_to_installation_package>
-
-      This will install Odoo as a service, create the necessary PostgreSQL_ user
-      and automatically start the server.
-
-      .. warning::
-         - The `python3-xlwt` Debian package does not exists in Debian Buster nor Ubuntu 18.04. This
-           python module is needed to export into xls format.
-
-           If you need the feature, you can install it manually with:
-
-           .. code-block:: console
-
-              $ sudo pip3 install xlwt
-
-         - The `num2words` python package does not exists in Debian Buster nor Ubuntu 18.04. Textual
-           amounts will not be rendered by Odoo and this could cause problems with the `l10n_mx_edi`
-           module.
-
-           If you need this feature, you can install manually with:
-
-           .. code-block:: console
-
-              $ sudo pip3 install num2words
-
-   .. group-tab:: Fedora
-
-      Instead of using the repository as described above, the 'rpm' packages for both the
-      *Community* and *Enterprise* editions can be downloaded from the `official download page
-      <download_>`_.
-
-      .. note::
-         Odoo {CURRENT_MAJOR_VERSION} 'rpm' package supports Fedora 36.
-
-      Once downloaded, the package can be installed using the 'dnf' package manager:
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-         $ sudo dnf localinstall odoo_{CURRENT_MAJOR_BRANCH}.latest.noarch.rpm
-         $ sudo systemctl enable odoo
-         $ sudo systemctl start odoo
-
-.. _setup/install/source:
-
-Source install
-==============
-
-The source "installation" is really about not installing Odoo, and running it directly from source
-instead.
-
-It can be more convenient for module developers as the Odoo source is more easily accessible than
-using packaged installation.
-
-It also makes starting and stopping Odoo more flexible and explicit than the services set up by the
-packaged installations, and allows overriding settings using
-:ref:`command-line parameters <reference/cmdline>` without needing to edit a configuration file.
-
-Finally it provides greater control over the system's set up, and allows to more easily keep
-(and run) multiple versions of Odoo side-by-side.
-
-Fetch the sources
------------------
-
-There are two ways to obtain the source code of Odoo: as a zip **archive** or through **git**.
-
-Archive

-* `GitHub repository <community-repository_>`_
-* `Nightly server <nightly_>`_

-The following requires `Git <git_>`_ to be installed on your machine and that you have basic
-knowledge of Git commands. To clone a Git repository, you must choose between cloning with HTTPS or
-SSH. If you do not know the difference between the two, the best option is most likely HTTPS. If you
-are following the :doc:`Getting started </developer/tutorials/getting_started>` developer tutorial,
-or plan on contributing to Odoo source code, choose SSH.
-
-.. note::
-   **The Enterprise Git repository does not contain the full Odoo source code**. It is only a

-
-      By default, the only user is `postgres` but Odoo forbids connecting as `postgres`, so you need
-      to create a new PostgreSQL user:
-
-      #. Add PostgreSQL's `bin` directory (by default:
-         :file:`C:\\Program Files\\PostgreSQL\\<version>\\bin`) to your `PATH`.
-      #. Create a postgres user with a password using the pg admin gui:
-
-         1. Open **pgAdmin**.
-         2. Double-click the server to create a connection.
-         3. Select :menuselection:`Object --> Create --> Login/Group Role`.
-         4. Enter the username in the **Role Name** field (e.g. `odoo`).
-         5. Open the **Definition** tab and enter the password (e.g. `odoo`), then click **Save**.

-      Using your **distribution packages** is the preferred way of installing dependencies.
-      Alternatively, you can install the python dependencies with **pip**.
-
-      .. tabs::
-
-         .. tab:: Debian/Ubuntu
-
-            For Debian-based systems, the packages are listed in the `debian/control
-            <{GITHUB_PATH}/debian/control>`_ file of the Odoo sources.
-
-            On Debian/Ubuntu, the following commands should install the required packages:
-
-            .. code-block:: console
-
-               $ cd /CommunityPath
-               $ sed -n -e '/^Depends:/,/^Pre/ s/ python3-\(.*\),/python3-\1/p' debian/control | sudo xargs apt-get install -y
-
-         .. tab:: Install with pip
-
-            As some of the python packages need a compilation step, they require system libraries to
-            be installed.
-
-            On Debian/Ubuntu-based systems, the following command should install these required
-            libraries:
-
-            .. code-block:: console
-
-               $ sudo apt install python3-pip libldap2-dev libpq-dev libsasl2-dev
-
-            Odoo dependencies are listed in the :file:`requirements.txt` file located at the root of
-            the Odoo community directory.
-
-            .. note::
-               | The python packages in :file:`requirements.txt` are based on their stable/LTS
-                 Debian/Ubuntu corresponding version at the moment of the Odoo release.
-               | E.g., for Odoo 15.0, the `python3-babel` package version is 2.8.0 in Debian
-                 Bullseye and 2.6.0 in Ubuntu Focal. The lowest version is then chosen in the

-.. _setup/install/source/running_odoo:
-
-Running Odoo
-------------
-
-Once all dependencies are set up, Odoo can be launched by running `odoo-bin`, the
-command-line interface of the server. It is located at the root of the Odoo Community directory.
-
-To configure the server, you can either specify :ref:`command-line arguments
-<reference/cmdline/server>` or a :ref:`configuration file <reference/cmdline/config>`.
-
-.. tip::
-   For the Enterprise edition, you must add the path to the `enterprise` addons to the `addons-path`
-   argument. Note that it must come before the other paths in `addons-path` for addons to be loaded
-   correctly.
-
-Common necessary configurations are:
-
-- PostgreSQL user and password.
-- Custom addon paths beyond the defaults, to load your own modules.
-
-A typical way to run the server would be:
-
-.. tabs::
-
-   .. group-tab:: Windows
-
-      .. code-block:: doscon
-
-          C:\> cd CommunityPath/
-          C:\> python odoo-bin -r dbuser -w dbpassword --addons-path=addons -d mydb
-
-      Where `CommunityPath` is the path of the Odoo Community installation, `dbuser` is the
-      PostgreSQL login, `dbpassword` is the PostgreSQL password, and `mydb` is the name of the
-      PostgreSQL database.
-
-   .. group-tab:: Linux
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-          $ cd /CommunityPath
-          $ python3 odoo-bin --addons-path=addons -d mydb
-
-      Where `CommunityPath` is the path of the Odoo Community installation, and `mydb` is the name
-      of the PostgreSQL database.
-
-   .. group-tab:: Mac OS
-
-      .. code-block:: console
-
-          $ cd /CommunityPath
-          $ python3 odoo-bin --addons-path=addons -d mydb
-
-      Where `CommunityPath` is the path of the Odoo Community installation, and `mydb` is the name
-      of the PostgreSQL database.
-
-After the server has started (the INFO log `odoo.modules.loading: Modules loaded.` is printed), open
-http://localhost:8069 in your web browser and log in with the base administrator account: Use
-`admin` for the :guilabel:`Email` and, again, `admin` for the :guilabel:`Password`. That's it, you
-just logged into your own Odoo database!
-
-.. tip::
-   - From there, you can create and manage new :doc:`users
-     </applications/general/users/manage_users>`.
-   - The user account you use to log into Odoo's web interface differs from the :option:`--db_user
-     <odoo-bin -r>` CLI argument.

-Connect Microsoft Outlook 365 to Odoo using Azure OAuth
-=======================================================
-
-Odoo is compatible with Microsoft's Azure OAuth for Microsoft 365. In order to send and receive
-secure emails from a custom domain, all that is required is to configure a few settings on the
-Azure platform and on the back end of the Odoo database. This configuration works with either a
-personal email address or an address created by a custom domain.
-
-.. seealso::
-   `Microsoft Learn: Register an application with the Microsoft identity platform

-
-.. seealso::
-   - :doc:`/applications/general/auth/azure`
-   - :doc:`/applications/productivity/calendar/outlook`
-
-Setup in Microsoft Azure Portal
-===============================
-
-Create a new application
-------------------------
-
-To get started, go to `Microsoft's Azure Portal <https://portal.azure.com/>`_. Log in with the
-:guilabel:`Microsoft Outlook Office 365` account if there is one, otherwise log in with the
-personal :guilabel:`Microsoft account`. A user with administrative access to the Azure Settings
-will need to connect and perform the following configuration. Next, navigate to the section
-labeled :guilabel:`Manage Azure Active Directory`.
-
-Now, click on :guilabel:`Add (+)`, located in the top menu, and then select :guilabel:`App
-registration`. On the :guilabel:`Register an application` screen, rename the :guilabel:`Name` to
-`Odoo` or something recognizable. Under the :guilabel:`Supported account types` section select
-:guilabel:`Accounts in any organizational directory (Any Azure AD directory - Multitenant) and
-personal Microsoft accounts (e.g. Skype, Xbox)`.
-
-Under the :guilabel:`Redirect URL` section, select :guilabel:`Web` as the platform, and then input
-`https://<odoo base url>/microsoft_outlook/confirm` in the :guilabel:`URL` field. The Odoo base URL
-is the canonical domain at which your Odoo instance can be reached in the URL field.
-
-.. example::
-   *mydatabase.odoo.com*, where *mydatabase* is the actual prefix of the database's subdomain,
-   assuming it's hosted on Odoo.com
-
-After the URL has been added to the field, :guilabel:`Register` the application so it is created.
-
-API permissions
----------------
-
-The :guilabel:`API permissions` should be set next. Odoo will need specific API permissions to be
-able to read (IMAP) and send (SMTP) emails in the Microsoft 365 setup. First, click the
-:guilabel:`API permissions` link, located in the left menu bar. Next, click on the :guilabel:`(+)
-Add a Permission` button and select :guilabel:`Microsoft Graph` under :guilabel:`Commonly Used
-Microsoft APIs`. After, select the :guilabel:`Delegated Permissions` option.
-
-In the search bar, search for the following :guilabel:`Deregulated permissions` and click
-:guilabel:`Add permissions` for each one:
-
-- :guilabel:`SMTP.Send`
-- :guilabel:`IMAP.AccessAsUser.All`
-
-.. note::
-   The :guilabel:`User.Read` permission will be added by default.
-
-.. image:: azure_oauth/permissions.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: API permissions needed for Odoo integration are listed under the Microsoft Graph.
-
-Assign users and groups
-=======================
-
-After adding the API permissions, navigate back to the :guilabel:`Overview` of the
-:guilabel:`Application` in the top of the left sidebar menu.
-
-Now, add users to this application. Under the :guilabel:`Essentials` overview table, click on the
-link labeled :guilabel:`Managed Application in Local Directory`, or the last option on the bottom
-right-hand side of the table.
-
-.. image:: azure_oauth/managed-application.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Add users/groups by clicking the Managed application in local directory link for the
-         created application.
-
-In the left sidebar menu, select :guilabel:`Users and Groups`. Next, click on :guilabel:`(+) Add
-User/Group`. Depending on the account, either a :guilabel:`Group` and a :guilabel:`User` can be
-added, or only :guilabel:`Users`. Personal accounts will only allow for :guilabel:`Users` to be
-added.
-
-Under :guilabel:`Users` or :guilabel:`Groups`, click on :guilabel:`None Selected` and add the users
-or group of users that will be sending emails from the :guilabel:`Microsoft account` in Odoo.
-:guilabel:`Add` the users/groups, click :guilabel:`Select`, and then :guilabel:`Assign` them to the
-application.
-
-Create credentials
-------------------
-
-Now that the Microsoft Azure app is set up, credentials need to be created for the Odoo setup.
-These include the :guilabel:`Client ID` and :guilabel:`Client Secret`. To start, the
-:guilabel:`Client ID` can be copied from the :guilabel:`Overview` page of the app. The
-:guilabel:`Client ID` or :guilabel:`Application ID` is located under the :guilabel:`Display Name`
-in the :guilabel:`Essentials` overview of the app.
-
-.. image:: azure_oauth/application-id.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Application/Client ID located in the Overview of the app.
-
-Next, the :guilabel:`Client Secret Value` needs to be retrieved. To get this value, click on
-:guilabel:`Certificates & Secrets` in the left sidebar menu. Then, a :guilabel:`Client Secret`
-needs to be produced. In order to do this, click on the :guilabel:`(+) New Client Secret` button.
-
-A window on the right will populate with a button labeled :guilabel:`Add a client secret`. Under
-:guilabel:`Description`, type in `Odoo Fetchmail` or something recognizable, and then set the
-:guilabel:`expiration date`.
-
-.. important::
-   A new :guilabel:`Client Secret` will need to be produced and configured if the first one
-   expires. In this event, there could be an interruption of service, so the expiration date should
-   be noted and set to the furthest possible date.
-
-Next, click on :guilabel:`Add` when these two values are entered. A :guilabel:`Client Secret Value`
-and :guilabel:`Secret ID` will be created. It is important to copy the :guilabel:`Value` or
-:guilabel:`Client Secret Value` into a notepad as it will become encrypted after leaving this page.
-The :guilabel:`Secret ID` is not needed.
-
-.. image:: azure_oauth/secretvalue.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Client Secret Value or Value in the app's credentials.
-
-After these steps, the following items should be ready to be set up in Odoo:
-
-- A client ID (:guilabel:`Client ID` or :guilabel:`Application ID`)
-- A client secret (:guilabel:`Value` or :guilabel:`Client Secret Value`)
-
-This completes the setup on the :guilabel:`Microsoft Azure Portal` side.
-
-Setup in Odoo
-=============
-
-Enter Microsoft Outlook credentials
------------------------------------
-
-First, open the Odoo database and navigate to the :guilabel:`Apps` module. Then, remove the
-:guilabel:`Apps` filter from the search bar and type in `Outlook`. After that, install the module
-called :guilabel:`Microsoft Outlook`.
-
-Next, navigate to :menuselection:`Settings --> General Settings`, and under the :guilabel:`Discuss`
-section, ensure that the checkbox for :guilabel:`Custom Email Servers` is checked. This populates
-a new option for :guilabel:`Outlook Credentials`.
-
-:guilabel:`Save` the progress.
-
-Then, copy and paste the :guilabel:`Client ID` (Application ID) and :guilabel:`Client Secret
-(Client Secret Value)` into the respective fields and :guilabel:`Save` the settings.

-Configure outgoing email server
--------------------------------
-
-On the :guilabel:`General Settings` page, under the :guilabel:`Custom Email Servers` setting,
-click the :guilabel:`Outgoing Email Servers` link to configure the Microsoft account.
-
-Then, create a new email server and check the box for :guilabel:`Outlook`. Next, fill in the
-:guilabel:`Name` (it can be anything) and the Microsoft Outlook email :guilabel:`Username`.
-
-If the :guilabel:`From Filter` field is empty, enter either a :ref:`domain or email address
-<email_communication/default>`.
-
-Then, click on :guilabel:`Connect your Outlook account`.
-
-A new window from Microsoft opens to complete the :guilabel:`authorization process`. Select the
-appropriate email address that is being configured in Odoo.
-
-.. image:: azure_oauth/verify-outlook.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Permission page to grant access between newly created app and Odoo.
-
-Then, allow Odoo to access the Microsoft account by clicking on :guilabel:`Yes`. After this, the
-page will navigate back to the newly configured :guilabel:`Outgoing Mail Server` in Odoo. The
-configuration automatically loads the :guilabel:`token` in Odoo, and a tag stating
-:guilabel:`Outlook Token Valid` appears in green.
-
-.. image:: azure_oauth/outlook-token.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Valid Outlook Token indicator.
-
-Finally, click :guilabel:`Test Connection`. A confirmation message should appear. The Odoo database
-can now send safe, secure emails through Microsoft Outlook using OAuth authentication.
-
-Multiple user configuration
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Each user should have a separate server set up. The :guilabel:`from-filter` should be set so that
-only the user's email is sent from that server. In other words, only a user with an email address
-that matches the set :guilabel:`from-filter` is able to use this server.
-
-After setting the :guilabel:`from-filter`, set up a fallback email account to allow for the sending
-of :guilabel:`notifications`. The fallback email must be configured as a :guilabel:`general
-transactional server`. The :guilabel:`mail.default.from` system parameter must be set to the
-:guilabel:`username` of the general transactional server account. For more information see
-:ref:`Use a default email address <email_communication/default>`.
-
-.. note::
-   The :guilabel:`System Parameters` can be accessed by activating
-   :doc:`../../applications/general/developer_mode` in the :menuselection:`Settings --> Technical
-   --> Parameters --> System Parameters` menu.
-
-Configure incoming email server
--------------------------------
-
-The incoming account should be configured in a similar way to the outgoing email account. Navigate
-to the :guilabel:`Incoming Mail Servers` in the :guilabel:`Technical Menu` and :guilabel:`Create` a
-new configuration. Check or Select the button next to :guilabel:`Outlook Oauth Authentication` and
-enter the :guilabel:`Microsoft Outlook username`.  Click on :guilabel:`Connect your Outlook
-account`. Odoo will state: :guilabel:`Outlook Token Valid` Now :guilabel:`Test and Confirm` the
-account. The account should be ready to receive email to the Odoo database.

-Domain names
-============
-
-A **domain name** works as an address for your website. It makes the Internet much more accessible
-as it allows users to type a meaningful web address, such as ``www.odoo.com``, rather than its
-server's IP address with a series of numbers.
-
-You can use a custom domain name to access your Odoo database and websites:
-
-- By :ref:`registering a free domain name with Odoo <domain-name/odoo-register>` (for Odoo Online
-  databases)
-- By :ref:`configuring a custom domain that you already own <domain-name/existing>`.
-
-.. note::
-   Odoo Online and Odoo.sh databases, including their websites, use by default a subdomain of
-   ``odoo.com`` for both the URL and the emails (e.g., ``https://example.odoo.com``).
-
-.. important::
-   Odoo offers a :ref:`free custom domain name <domain-name/odoo-register>` to all Odoo Online
-   databases for one year. Visitors can then access your website with an address such as
-   ``www.example.com`` rather than the default ``example.odoo.com``.

-
-About domain names
-==================
-
-Having a **good domain name** is as important to your branding as the name of your business or
-organization as it is the first thing your visitors will notice. We recommend you keep them *simple,
-short, easy to remember and spell*.
-
-A **subdomain** is a domain that is a part of another domain. It often refers to the additional part
-that comes before the main domain name. Traditionally, most websites use the ``www.`` subdomain,
-but any string of letters can be used as well. You can use subdomains to direct your visitors to
-other websites than your main website or to specific pages (e.g., ``experience.odoo.com`` points to
-a specific page.)
-
-All domain names are referenced in the **Domain Name System**, or **DNS**, which works as a giant
-directory for the Internet. There are many DNS servers, so any modification to the DNS can take up
-to 72 hours to propagate worldwide on all servers.
-
-.. _domain-name/indexing:
-
-Indexing of domain names by search engines
-------------------------------------------
-
-Search engines, such as Google and Bing, rely on web crawlers (:dfn:`robots that explore and analyze
-the web`) to index all websites and their related domain names. These crawlers discover new URLs
-thanks to links on known web pages. As a result, search engines should index domain names
-automatically after a while, as long as their URLs are mentioned elsewhere on the Internet.
-
-Improving the appearance and positioning of web pages on search engines is a practice named "Search
-Engine Optimization" (SEO).
-
-.. tip::
-   Adding relevant content, optimizing metadata, and building high-quality backlinks can all help
-   improve a website's search engine visibility.
-
-Some search engines provide tools for web admins, such as
-`Google Search Console <https://search.google.com/search-console>`_ and
-`Bing Webmaster Tools <https://www.bing.com/webmasters>`_, to help you analyze and improve your
-page ranking. To use these services, you must prove that you are the owner of your domain name. One
-way to verify the ownership of your domain name is by adding a DNS record. You can do this for
-:ref:`domain names registered with Odoo <domain-name/odoo-manage>` and for domain names managed by
-other providers.

-
-.. _domain-name/existing:
-
-Configure your existing domain name
-===================================
-
-If you already own a domain name, you can use it to point to your website.
-
-To avoid any issue with the :ref:`SSL certificate validation <domain-name/ssl>`, we highly recommend
-that you proceed with the following actions in this order:
-
-#. :ref:`Add a CNAME record <domain-name/cname>` on your domain name's DNS zone.
-#. :ref:`Map your domain name with your Odoo database <domain-name/db-map>`.
-#. :ref:`Map your domain name with your Odoo website <domain-name/website-map>`.
-
-.. _domain-name/cname:
-
-Add a CNAME record
-------------------
-
-A **CNAME record** is a type of DNS record that points to the domain of another website rather than
-directly to an IP address.
-
-You need a CNAME record that points to your Odoo database. The requirements are detailed in your
-database manager.
-
-.. tabs::
-
-   .. group-tab:: Odoo Online
-
-      The target address is the current address of your database, as defined at its creation (e.g.,
-      ``example.odoo.com``)
-
-   .. group-tab:: Odoo.sh
-
-      Your project's main address is defined in :menuselection:`Settings --> Project Name`.
-
-      If you want to target a specific branch (production, staging or development), go to
-      :menuselection:`Branches --> select your branch --> Settings --> Custom domains`, and click on
-      :guilabel:`How to set up my domain?`. A message indicates which address your CNAME record
-      should target.
-
-#. Open your domain name's manager dashboard.
-#. Open the **DNS zone** management page for the domain name you want to configure.
-#. Create a **CNAME record** pointing to the address of your database.
-
-While Odoo suggests creating a CNAME record for your ``www.`` subdomain (``www.example.com``), you
-can of course use any domain name of your choice, with any subdomain (e.g.,
-``anything.example.com``).
-
-.. example::
-   You own the domain name ``example.com``, and you have an Odoo Online database at the address
-   ``example.odoo.com``. You want to access your Odoo database primarily with the domain
-   ``www.example.com`` but also with the :ref:`naked domain <domain-name/naked-domain>`
-   ``example.com``.
-
-   To do so, you create a CNAME record for the ``www`` subdomain, with ``example.odoo.com`` as the
-   target. The DNS zone manager generates the following rule and adds it to your DNS zone: ``www IN
-   CNAME example.odoo.com.``
-
-   You also create a redirection from ``example.com`` to ``wwww.example.com``.
-
-   Your new DNS records are propagated to all DNS servers.
-
-.. note::
-   Here are some specific guidelines to create a CNAME record:

-
-.. _domain-name/naked-domain:
-
-Naked domain
-~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-A **naked domain** is a domain name that doesn't have any subdomain at the beginning of the address
-(e.g., ``odoo.com`` instead of ``www.odoo.com``).
-
-You may want your naked domain to redirect to your website as some visitors may not type the full
-domain name to access your website.
-
-#. Open your domain name's manager dashboard.
-#. Create a **redirection** from the naked domain (``example.com``) to your main domain name
-   (``www.example.com``).
-
-.. note::
-   Depending on your domain name registrar, this redirection may be already pre-configured.

-Map your domain name with your Odoo database
---------------------------------------------

-.. tabs::
-
-   .. group-tab:: Odoo Online
-
-      Open your `database manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases>`_, click on the
-      :guilabel:`settings` button next to your database, on :guilabel:`Domain names`, and then on
-      :guilabel:`Use my own domain` at the bottom of the right column.
-
-      Type the domain name you want to add to this database, then click on :guilabel:`Verify` to
-      check if the CNAME record is correctly configured. Once done, click on :guilabel:`I confirm,
-      it's done`.

-         - :ref:`Odoo.sh branches: settings tab <odoosh-gettingstarted-branches-tabs-settings>`
-
-.. warning::
-   Make sure to :ref:`add a CNAME record <domain-name/cname>` to your domain name's DNS **before**
-   mapping your domain name with your Odoo database.
-
-   Failing to do so may impede the validation of the :ref:`SSL certificate <domain-name/ssl>` and
-   would result in a *certificate name mismatch* error. This is often displayed by web browsers as a
-   warning such as *"Your connection is not private"*.
-
-   If this is the case and you have added the domain name to your database's settings less than five
-   days ago, wait 24 hours as the validation may still happen. Otherwise, please `submit a support
-   ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ including screenshots of your CNAME records.
-
-.. _domain-name/ssl:
-
-SSL encryption (HTTPS protocol)
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-**SSL encryption** is an encryption-based Internet security protocol. It allows your visitors to
-navigate your website through a secure connection, which appears as an ``https://`` protocol at the
-beginning of your web address, rather than a non-secure ``http://`` protocol.
-
-Odoo generates a separate SSL certificate for each domain :ref:`mapped in the database manager
-<domain-name/db-map>`, using integration with `Let's Encrypt Certificate Authority and ACME protocol
-<https://letsencrypt.org/how-it-works/>`_.
-
-.. note::
-   - The certificate generation may take up to 24h.
-   - Several attempts to validate your certificate are made during the five days following the
-     moment you add your domain name in your database's settings.
-   - If you already use another service, you can keep using it or simply change for Odoo.
-
-.. _domain-name/web-base-url:
-
-Web base URL of a database
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-.. note::
-   If you have Odoo Website, you can disregard this part and directly :ref:`map your domain name
-   with your website <domain-name/website-map>`.
-
-The **web base URL** of a database, or **root URL** affects your main website address and all the
-links sent to your customers (e.g., quotations, portal links, etc.).
-
-To configure it, access your Odoo database with your custom address, then log in as an administrator
-of your database (any user in the *Settings* group) from the login screen.
-
-.. warning::
-   Connecting to your database with the original Odoo subdomain address (e.g., ``example.odoo.com``
-   also updates the web base URL of your database. See below to prevent these automatic updates.
-
-Alternatively, you can do it manually. To do so, activate the :ref:`developer mode
-<developer-mode>`, then go to :menuselection:`Settings --> Technical --> System Parameters`.
-
-Find the key called ``web.base.url`` (or create it if it does not exist) and enter the full address
-of your website as value, such as ``https://www.example.com``.
-
-.. note::
-   The URL must include the protocol ``https://`` (or ``http://``) and must not end with a slash
-   (``/``).
-
-To prevent the automatic update of the web base URL when an administrator logs in the database, you
-can create the following System Parameter:
-
-- key: ``web.base.url.freeze``
-- value: ``True``
-
-.. _domain-name/website-map:
-
-Map your domain name with your website
-======================================
-
-Mapping your domain name to your website isn't the same as mapping it with your database:
-
-- It defines your domain name as the main one for your website, helping search engines to index your
-  website properly.
-- It defines your domain name as the base URL for your database, including the portal links sent by
-  email to your customers.
-- If you have multiple websites, it maps your domain name with the appropriate website.
-
-Go to :menuselection:`Website --> Configuration --> Settings --> Website Info`. If you have multiple
-websites, select the one you want to configure.
-
-In the :guilabel:`Domain` field, fill in the web address of your website (e.g.,
-``https://www.example.com``) and click on :guilabel:`Save`.
-
-.. image:: domain_names/website-settings.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Configuring https://www.example.com as the Domain of the website
-
-.. warning::
-   Mapping your domain name with your Odoo website prevents Google from indexing both your custom
-   domain name ``www.example.com`` and your original odoo database address ``example.odoo.com``.
-
-   If both addresses are already indexed, it may take some time before Google removes the indexation
-   of the second address. You may also try using the `Google Search Console
-   <https://search.google.com/search-console>`_ to fix this.
-
-.. note::
-   If you have multiple websites and companies on your database, make sure that you select the
-   right :guilabel:`Company` in the website settings, next to the :guilabel:`Domain` settings. Doing
-   so indicates Odoo which URL to use as the :ref:`base URL <domain-name/web-base-url>` according to
-   the company in use.

-Registration Error Message
---------------------------
-
-If you are unable to register your database, you will likely encounter this
-message:
-
-.. image:: on_premise/error_message_sub_code.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Something went wrong while registering your database, you can try again or contact Odoo
-         Help
-
-Solutions
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Do you have a valid Enterprise subscription?
-
-  * Check if your subscription details get the tag "In Progress" on
-    your `Odoo Account
-    <https://accounts.odoo.com/my/subscription>`__ or with your Account Manager
-
-* Have you already linked a database with your subscription reference?
-
-  * You can link only one database per subscription.
-    (Need a test or a development database? `Find a partner
-    <https://www.odoo.com/partners>`__)
-
-  * You can unlink the old database yourself on your `Odoo Contract
-    <https://accounts.odoo.com/my/subscription>`__ with the button "Unlink database"
-
-    .. image:: on_premise/unlink_single_db.png
-       :align: center
-
-    A confirmation message will appear; make sure this is the correct database as
-    it will be deactivated shortly:
-
-    .. image:: on_premise/unlink_confirm_enterprise_edition.png
-       :align: center
-
-* Do you have the updated version of Odoo 9?
-
-  * From July 2016 onward, Odoo 9 now automatically change the uuid of a
-    duplicated database; a manual operation is no longer required.
-
-  * If it's not the case, you may have multiple databases sharing the same
-    UUID. Please check on your `Odoo Contract
-    <https://accounts.odoo.com/my/subscription>`__, a short message will appear
-    specifying which database is problematic:
-
-    .. image:: on_premise/unlink_db_name_collision.png
-       :align: center
-
-    In this case, you need to change the UUID on your test databases to solve this
-    issue. You will find more information about this in :ref:`this section <duplicate_premise>`.
-
-    For your information, we identify database with UUID. Therefore, each database
-    should have a distinct UUID to ensure that registration and invoicing proceed
-    effortlessly for your and for us.
-
-* Check your network and firewall settings
-
-  * The Update notification must be able to reach Odoo's subscription
-    validation servers. In other words, make sure that the Odoo server is able
-    to open outgoing connections towards:
-
-      * services.odoo.com on port 443 (or 80)
-      * services.openerp.com on port 443 (or 80) for older deployments
-
-  * Once you activated your database, you must keep these ports open, as the
-    Update notification runs once a week.

-Error message due to too many users
------------------------------------
-
-If you have more users in your local database than provisionned in your
-Odoo Enterprise subscription, you may encounter this message:
-
-.. image:: on_premise/add_more_users.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: This database will expire in X days, you have more users than your subscription allows
-
-
-When the message appears you have 30 days before the expiration.
-The countdown is updated everyday.
-
-Solutions
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-- **Add more users** on your subscription: follow the link and Validate
-  the upsell quotation and pay for the extra users.
-- **Deactivate users** as explained in this `documentation <documentation.html#deactivating-users>`_
-  and **Reject** the upsell quotation.
-
-Once your database has the correct number of users, the expiration message
-will disappear automatically after a few days, when the next verification occurs.
-We understand that it can be a bit frightening to see the countdown,
-so you can :ref:`force an Update Notification <force_ping>`  to make the message disappear
-right away.
-
-Database expired error message
-------------------------------
-
-If your database reaches its expiration date before your renew your subscription,
-you will encounter this message:
-
-.. image:: on_premise/database_expired.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: This database has expired.
-
-This **blocking** message appears after a non-blocking message that lasts 30 days.
-If you fail to take action before the end of the countdown, the database is expired.
-
-Solutions
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Renew your subscription: follow the link and renew your subscription - note that
-    if you wish to pay by Wire Transfer, your subscription will effectively be renewed
-    only when the payment arrives, which can take a few days. Credit card payments are
-    processed immediately.

-Duplicate a database
-====================
-
-You can duplicate your database by accessing the database manager on your
-server (<odoo-server>/web/database/manager). In this page, you can easily
-duplicate your database (among other things).
-
-.. image:: on_premise/db_manager.gif
-   :align: center
-
-When you duplicate a local database, it is **strongly** advised to change
-the duplicated database's uuid (Unniversally Unique Identifier), since this
-uuid is how your database identifies itself with our servers. Having two
-databases with the same uuid could result in invoicing problems or registration
-problems down the line.
-
-.. note::
-   From July 2016 onward, Odoo 9 now automatically change the uuid of a duplicated database; a
-   manual operation is no longer required.
-
-The database uuid is currently accessible from the menu :menuselection:`Settings --> Technical -->
-System Parameters`, we advise you to use a `uuid generator <https://www.uuidtools.com>`_ or to
-use the unix command ``uuidgen`` to generate a new uuid. You can then simply replace it like any
-other record by clicking on it and using the edit button.

+Neutralized database
+====================
+
+A neutralized database is a non-production database on which several parameters are deactivated.
+This enables one to carry out tests without the risk of launching specific automated processes that
+could impact production data (e.g., sending emails to customers). Live access is removed and
+turned into a testing environment.
+

+   **Any testing database created is a neutralized database:**
+
+   - testing backup databases
+   - duplicate databases
+   - for Odoo.sh: staging and development databases
+
+.. important::
+   A database can also be neutralized when upgrading, as it is vital to do some tests before
+   switching to a new version.
+
+Deactivated features
+====================
+
+Here is a non-exhaustive list of the deactivated features:
+
+- all planned actions (e.g., automatic invoicing of subscriptions, mass mailing, etc.)
+- outgoing emails
+- bank synchronization
+- payment providers
+- delivery methods
+- :abbr:`IAP (In-App Purchase)` tokens
+- website visibility (prevent search engines from indexing your site)

+==========
+
+Register a database
+===================
+
+To register your database, enter your subscription code in the banner in the app dashboard. If the
+registration is successful, the banner will turn green and display the database expiration date.
+
+.. tip::
+   The expiration date is also displayed at the bottom of the Settings page.
+

+
+Duplicate a database
+====================
+
+Duplicate a database by accessing the database manager on your server
+(`<odoo-server>/web/database/manager`). Typically, you want to duplicate your production database
+into a neutralized testing database. It can be done by checking the neutralize box when prompted,
+which executes all :file:`neutralize.sql` scripts for every installed module.
+
+Common error messages and solutions
+===================================
+
+Registration error
+------------------
+
+In case of a registration error, the following message should be displayed.
+
+.. image:: on_premise/error-message-sub-code.png
+   :alt: Database registration error message
+
+To resolve the issue:
+
+- Check the **validity of your Odoo Enterprise subscription** by verifying if your subscription
+  details have the tag :guilabel:`In Progress` on your `Odoo Account
+  <https://accounts.odoo.com/my/subscription>`_ or contact your Account Manager.
+
+- Ensure that **no other database is linked** to the subscription code, as only one database can be
+  linked per subscription.
+
+  .. tip::
+     If a test or a development database is needed, you can :ref:`duplicate a database
+     <on-premise/duplicate>`.
+
+- Verify that **no databases share the same UUID** (Universally Unique Identifier) by opening your
+  `Odoo Contract <https://accounts.odoo.com/my/subscription>`_. If two or more databases share the
+  same UUID, their name will be displayed.
+
+  .. image:: on_premise/unlink-db-name-collision.png
+     :alt: Database UUID error message
+
+  If that is the case, manually change the database(s) UUID or `send a support ticket
+  <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_.
+
+- As the update notification must be able to reach Odoo's subscription validation servers, ensure
+  your **network and firewall settings** allow the Odoo server to open outgoing connections
+  towards:
+
+  - `services.odoo.com` on port `443` (or `80`)
+  - for older deployments, `services.openerp.com` on port `443` (or `80`)
+
+  These ports must be kept open even after registering a database, as the update notification runs
+  once a week.
+
+Too many users error
+--------------------
+
+If you have more users in a local database than provisioned in your Odoo Enterprise subscription,
+the following message should be displayed.
+
+.. image:: on_premise/add-more-users.png
+   :alt: Too many users on a database error message
+
+When the message appears, you have 30 days to act before the database expires. The countdown is
+updated every day.
+
+To resolve the issue, either:
+
+- **Add more users** to your subscription by clicking the :guilabel:`Upgrade your subscription` link
+  displayed in the message to validate the upsell quotation and pay for the extra users.
+- :ref:`Deactivate users <users/deactivate>` and **reject** the upsell quotation.
+
+.. important::
+   If you are on a monthly subscription plan, the database will automatically update to reflect the
+   added user(s). If you are on a yearly or multi-year plan, an expiration banner will appear in the
+   database. You can create the upsell quotation by clicking the banner to update the subscription
+   or `send a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_ to resolve the issue.
+
+Once your database has the correct number of users, the expiration message disappears automatically
+after a few days, when the next verification occurs.
+
+Database expired error
+----------------------
+
+If your database expires before you renew your subscription, the following message should be
+displayed.
+
+.. image:: on_premise/database-expired.png
+   :alt: Database expired error message
+
+This message appears if you fail to act before the end of the 30-day countdown.
+
+To resolve the issue, either:
+
+- Click the :guilabel:`Renew your subscription` link displayed in the message and complete the
+  process. If you pay by wire transfer, your subscription will be renewed when the payment arrives
+  which can take a few days. Credit card payments are processed immediately.
+- `Send a support ticket <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_.

+System configuration
+====================
+
+This document describes basic steps to set up Odoo in production or on an
+internet-facing server. It follows :doc:`installation <../on_premise>`, and is
+not generally necessary for a development systems that is not exposed on the
+internet.
+
+.. warning:: If you are setting up a public server, be sure to check our :ref:`security` recommendations!
+
+.. _dbfilter:
+
+dbfilter
+========
+
+Odoo is a multi-tenant system: a single Odoo system may run and serve a number
+of database instances. It is also highly customizable, with customizations
+(starting from the modules being loaded) depending on the "current database".
+
+This is not an issue when working with the backend (web client) as a logged-in
+company user: the database can be selected when logging in, and customizations
+loaded afterwards.
+
+However it is an issue for non-logged users (portal, website) which aren't
+bound to a database: Odoo needs to know which database should be used to load
+the website page or perform the operation. If multi-tenancy is not used that is not an
+issue, there's only one database to use, but if there are multiple databases
+accessible Odoo needs a rule to know which one it should use.
+
+That is one of the purposes of :option:`--db-filter <odoo-bin --db-filter>`:
+it specifies how the database should be selected based on the hostname (domain)
+that is being requested. The value is a `regular expression`_, possibly
+including the dynamically injected hostname (``%h``) or the first subdomain
+(``%d``) through which the system is being accessed.
+
+For servers hosting multiple databases in production, especially if ``website``
+is used, dbfilter **must** be set, otherwise a number of features will not work
+correctly.
+
+Configuration samples
+---------------------
+
+* Show only databases with names beginning with 'mycompany'
+
+in :ref:`the configuration file <reference/cmdline/config_file>` set:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+  [options]
+  dbfilter = ^mycompany.*$
+
+* Show only databases matching the first subdomain after ``www``: for example
+  the database "mycompany" will be shown if the incoming request
+  was sent to ``www.mycompany.com`` or ``mycompany.co.uk``, but not
+  for ``www2.mycompany.com`` or ``helpdesk.mycompany.com``.
+
+in :ref:`the configuration file <reference/cmdline/config_file>` set:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+  [options]
+  dbfilter = ^%d$
+
+.. note::
+
+  Setting a proper :option:`--db-filter <odoo-bin --db-filter>` is an important part
+  of securing your deployment.
+  Once it is correctly working and only matching a single database per hostname, it
+  is strongly recommended to block access to the database manager screens,
+  and to use the ``--no-database-list`` startup parameter to prevent listing
+  your databases, and to block access to the database management screens.
+  See also security_.
+
+PostgreSQL
+==========
+
+By default, PostgreSQL only allows connection over UNIX sockets and loopback
+connections (from "localhost", the same machine the PostgreSQL server is
+installed on).
+
+UNIX socket is fine if you want Odoo and PostgreSQL to execute on the same
+machine, and is the default when no host is provided, but if you want Odoo and
+PostgreSQL to execute on different machines [#different-machines]_ it will
+need to `listen to network interfaces`_ [#remote-socket]_, either:
+
+* Only accept loopback connections and `use an SSH tunnel`_ between the
+  machine on which Odoo runs and the one on which PostgreSQL runs, then
+  configure Odoo to connect to its end of the tunnel
+* Accept connections to the machine on which Odoo is installed, possibly
+  over ssl (see `PostgreSQL connection settings`_ for details), then configure
+  Odoo to connect over the network
+
+Configuration sample
+--------------------
+
+* Allow tcp connection on localhost
+* Allow tcp connection from 192.168.1.x network

+
+Configuring Odoo
+----------------
+
+Out of the box, Odoo connects to a local postgres over UNIX socket via port
+5432. This can be overridden using :ref:`the database options
+<reference/cmdline/server/database>` when your Postgres deployment is not
+local and/or does not use the installation defaults.
+
+The :doc:`packaged installers <packages>` will automatically
+create a new user (``odoo``) and set it as the database user.
+
+* The database management screens are protected by the ``admin_passwd``
+  setting. This setting can only be set using configuration files, and is
+  simply checked before performing database alterations. It should be set to
+  a randomly generated value to ensure third parties can not use this
+  interface.
+* All database operations use the :ref:`database options
+  <reference/cmdline/server/database>`, including the database management
+  screen. For the database management screen to work requires that the PostgreSQL user
+  have ``createdb`` right.
+* Users can always drop databases they own. For the database management screen
+  to be completely non-functional, the PostgreSQL user needs to be created with
+  ``no-createdb`` and the database must be owned by a different PostgreSQL user.
+
+  .. warning:: the PostgreSQL user *must not* be a superuser
+
+Configuration sample
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* connect to a PostgreSQL server on 192.168.1.2
+* port 5432
+* using an 'odoo' user account,
+* with 'pwd' as a password

+  dbfilter = ^mycompany.*$
+
+.. _postgresql_ssl_connect:
+
+SSL Between Odoo and PostgreSQL
+-------------------------------
+
+Since Odoo 11.0, you can enforce ssl connection between Odoo and PostgreSQL.
+in Odoo the db_sslmode control the ssl security of the connection
+with value chosen out of 'disable', 'allow', 'prefer', 'require', 'verify-ca'
+or 'verify-full'
+

+
+.. _builtin_server:
+
+Builtin server
+==============
+
+Odoo includes built-in HTTP, cron, and live-chat servers, using either multi-threading or
+multi-processing.
+
+The **multi-threaded** server is a simpler server primarily used for development, demonstrations,
+and its compatibility with various operating systems (including Windows). A new thread is spawned
+for every new HTTP request, even for long-lived connections such as websocket. Extra daemonic cron
+threads are spawned too. Due to a Python limitation (GIL), it doesn't make the best use of the
+hardware.
+
+The multi-threaded server is the default server, also for docker containers. It is selected by
+leaving the :option:`--workers <odoo-bin --workers>` option out or setting it to ``0``.
+
+The **multi-processing** server is a full-blown server primarily used for production. It is not
+liable to the same Python limitation (GIL) on resource usage and hence makes the best use of the
+hardware. A pool of workers is created upon server startup. New HTTP requests are queued by the OS
+until there are workers ready to process them. An extra event-driven HTTP worker for the live chat
+is spawned on an alternative port. Extra cron workers are spawned too. A configurable process
+reaper monitors resource usage and can kill/restart failed workers.
+
+The multi-processing server is opt-in. It is selected by setting the :option:`--workers
+<odoo-bin --workers>` option to a non-null integer.
+
+.. note::
+   Because it is highly customized for Linux servers, the multi-processing server is not available
+   on Windows.
+
+Worker number calculation
+-------------------------
+
+* Rule of thumb : (#CPU * 2) + 1
+* Cron workers need CPU
+* 1 worker ~= 6 concurrent users
+
+memory size calculation
+-----------------------
+
+* We consider 20% of the requests are heavy requests, while 80% are simpler ones
+* A heavy worker, when all computed field are well designed, SQL requests are well designed, ... is estimated to consume around 1GB of RAM
+* A lighter worker, in the same scenario, is estimated to consume around 150MB of RAM
+
+Needed RAM = #worker * ( (light_worker_ratio * light_worker_ram_estimation) + (heavy_worker_ratio * heavy_worker_ram_estimation) )
+
+LiveChat
+--------
+
+In multi-processing, a dedicated LiveChat worker is automatically started and listens on
+the :option:`--gevent-port <odoo-bin --gevent-port>`. By default, the HTTP requests will keep
+accessing the normal HTTP workers instead of the LiveChat one. You must deploy a proxy in front of
+Odoo and redirect incoming requests whose path starts with ``/websocket/`` to the LiveChat worker.
+You must also start Odoo in :option:`--proxy-mode <odoo-bin --proxy-mode>` so it uses the real
+client headers (such as hostname, scheme, and IP) instead of the proxy ones.
+
+Configuration sample
+--------------------
+
+* Server with 4 CPU, 8 Thread
+* 60 concurrent users
+
+* 60 users / 6 = 10 <- theoretical number of worker needed
+* (4 * 2) + 1 = 9 <- theoretical maximal number of worker
+* We'll use 8 workers + 1 for cron. We'll also use a monitoring system to measure cpu load, and check if it's between 7 and 7.5 .
+* RAM = 9 * ((0.8*150) + (0.2*1024)) ~= 3Go RAM for Odoo
+
+in :ref:`the configuration file <reference/cmdline/config_file>`:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+  [options]
+  limit_memory_hard = 1677721600
+  limit_memory_soft = 629145600
+  limit_request = 8192
+  limit_time_cpu = 600
+  limit_time_real = 1200
+  max_cron_threads = 1
+  workers = 8
+
+.. _https_proxy:
+
+HTTPS
+=====
+
+Whether it's accessed via website/web client or web service, Odoo transmits
+authentication information in cleartext. This means a secure deployment of
+Odoo must use HTTPS\ [#switching]_. SSL termination can be implemented via
+just about any SSL termination proxy, but requires the following setup:
+
+* Enable Odoo's :option:`proxy mode <odoo-bin --proxy-mode>`. This should only be enabled when Odoo is behind a reverse proxy
+* Set up the SSL termination proxy (`Nginx termination example`_)
+* Set up the proxying itself (`Nginx proxying example`_)
+* Your SSL termination proxy should also automatically redirect non-secure
+  connections to the secure port

+
+
+Odoo as a WSGI Application
+==========================
+
+It is also possible to mount Odoo as a standard WSGI_ application. Odoo
+provides the base for a WSGI launcher script as ``odoo-wsgi.example.py``. That
+script should be customized (possibly after copying it from the setup directory) to correctly set the
+configuration directly in :mod:`odoo.tools.config` rather than through the
+command-line or a configuration file.
+
+However the WSGI server will only expose the main HTTP endpoint for the web
+client, website and webservice API. Because Odoo does not control the creation
+of workers anymore it can not setup cron or livechat workers
+
+Cron Workers
+------------
+
+Starting one of the built-in Odoo servers next to the WSGI server is required to process cron jobs.
+That server must be configured to only process crons and not HTTP requests using the
+:option:`--no-http <odoo-bin --no-http>` cli option or the ``http_enable = False`` configuration
+file setting.
+
+On Linux-like systems, using the multi-processing server over the multi-threading one is recommended
+to benefit from better hardware usage and increased stability, i.e., using
+the :option:`--workers=-1 <odoo-bin --workers>` and :option:`--max-cron-threads=n
+<odoo-bin --max-cron-threads>` cli options.
+
+LiveChat
+--------
+
+Using a gevent-compatible WSGI server is required for the correct operation of the live chat
+feature. That server should be able to handle many simultaneous long-lived connections but doesn't
+need a lot of processing power. All requests whose path starts with ``/websocket/`` should be
+directed to that server. A regular (thread/process-based) WSGI server should be used for all other
+requests.
+
+The Odoo cron server can also be used to serve the live chat requests. Just drop
+the :option:`--no-http <odoo-bin --no-http>` cli option from the cron server and make sure requests
+whose path starts with ``/websocket/`` are directed to this server, either on
+the :option:`--http-port <odoo-bin --http-port>` (multi-threading server) or on
+the :option:`--gevent-port <odoo-bin --gevent-port>` (multi-processing server).
+
+.. _deploy/streaming:
+
+Serving static files and attachments
+====================================
+
+For development convenience, Odoo directly serves all static files and attachments in its modules.
+This may not be ideal when it comes to performances, and static files should generally be served by
+a static HTTP server.
+
+Serving static files
+--------------------
+
+Odoo static files are located in each module's :file:`static/` folder, so static files can be served
+by intercepting all requests to :samp:`/{MODULE}/static/{FILE}`, and looking up the right module
+(and file) in the various addons paths.
+
+It is recommended to set the ``Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'`` header on all images
+delivered by the web server. It is not strictly necessary as users cannot modify/inject content
+inside of modules' :file:`static/` folder and existing images are final (they do not fetch new
+resources by themselves). However, it is good practice.
+
+Using the above NGINX (https) configuration, the following ``map`` and ``location`` blocks should be
+added to serve static files via NGINX.
+
+.. code-block:: nginx
+
+    map $sent_http_content_type $content_type_csp {
+        default "";
+        ~image/ "default-src 'none'";
+    }
+
+    server {
+        # the rest of the configuration
+
+        location @odoo {
+            # copy-paste the content of the / location block
+        }
+
+        # Serve static files right away
+        location ~ ^/[^/]+/static/.+$ {
+            # root and try_files both depend on your addons paths
+            root ...;
+            try_files ... @odoo;
+            expires 24h;
+            add_header Content-Security-Policy $content_type_csp;
+        }
+    }
+
+The actual ``root`` and ``try_files`` directives are dependant on your installation, specifically on
+your :option:`--addons-path <odoo-bin --addons-path>`.
+
+.. example::
+
+   .. tabs::
+
+      .. group-tab:: Debian package
+
+         Say Odoo has been installed via the **debian packages** for Community and Enterprise, and
+         that the :option:`--addons-path <odoo-bin --addons-path>` is
+         ``'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/odoo/addons'``.
+
+         The ``root`` and ``try_files`` should be:
+
+         .. code-block:: nginx
+
+            root /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/odoo/addons;
+            try_files $uri @odoo;
+
+      .. group-tab:: Git sources
+
+         Say Odoo has been installed via the **sources**, that both the Community and Enterprise git
+         repositories were cloned in :file:`/opt/odoo/community` and :file:`/opt/odoo/enterprise`
+         respectively, and that the :option:`--addons-path <odoo-bin --addons-path>` is
+         ``'/opt/odoo/community/odoo/addons,/opt/odoo/community/addons,/opt/odoo/enterprise'``.
+
+         The ``root`` and ``try_files`` should be:
+
+         .. code-block:: nginx
+
+            root /opt/odoo;
+            try_files /community/odoo/addons$uri /community/addons$uri /enterprise$uri @odoo;
+
+Serving attachments
+-------------------
+
+Attachments are files stored in the filestore which access is regulated by Odoo. They cannot be
+directly accessed via a static web server as accessing them requires multiple lookups in the
+database to determine where the files are stored and whether the current user can access them or
+not.
+
+Nevertheless, once the file has been located and the access rights verified by Odoo, it is a good
+idea to serve the file using the static web server instead of Odoo. For Odoo to delegate serving
+files to the static web server, the `X-Sendfile <https://tn123.org/mod_xsendfile/>`_ (apache) or
+`X-Accel <https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/x-accel/>`_ (nginx) extensions
+must be enabled and configured on the static web server. Once it is set up, start Odoo with the
+:option:`--x-sendfile <odoo-bin --x-sendfile>` CLI flag (this unique flag is used for both
+X-Sendfile and X-Accel).
+
+
+.. note::
+   - The X-Sendfile extension for apache (and compatible web servers) does not require any
+     supplementary configuration.
+   - The X-Accel extension for NGINX **does** require the following additionnal configuration:
+
+     .. code-block:: nginx
+
+         location /web/filestore {
+             internal;
+             alias /path/to/odoo/data-dir/filestore;
+         }
+
+     In case you don't know what is the path to your filestore, start Odoo with the
+     :option:`--x-sendfile <odoo-bin --x-sendfile>` option and navigate to the ``/web/filestore`` URL
+     directly via Odoo (don't navigate to the URL via NGINX). This logs a warnings, the message
+     contains the configuration you need.
+
+
+.. _security:
+
+Security
+========
+
+For starters, keep in mind that securing an information system is a continuous process,
+not a one-shot operation. At any moment, you will only be as secure as the weakest link
+in your environment.
+
+So please do not take this section as the ultimate list of measures that will prevent
+all security problems. It's only intended as a summary of the first important things
+you should be sure to include in your security action plan. The rest will come
+from best security practices for your operating system and distribution,
+best practices in terms of users, passwords, and access control management, etc.
+
+When deploying an internet-facing server, please be sure to consider the following
+security-related topics:
+
+- Always set a strong super-admin admin password, and restrict access to the database
+  management pages as soon as the system is set up. See :ref:`db_manager_security`.
+
+- Choose unique logins and strong passwords for all administrator accounts on all databases.
+  Do not use 'admin' as the login. Do not use those logins for day-to-day operations,
+  only for controlling/managing the installation.
+  *Never* use any default passwords like admin/admin, even for test/staging databases.
+
+- Do **not** install demo data on internet-facing servers. Databases with demo data contain
+  default logins and passwords that can be used to get into your systems and cause significant
+  trouble, even on staging/dev systems.
+
+- Use appropriate database filters ( :option:`--db-filter <odoo-bin --db-filter>`)
+  to restrict the visibility of your databases according to the hostname.
+  See :ref:`dbfilter`.
+  You may also use :option:`-d <odoo-bin -d>` to provide your own (comma-separated)
+  list of available databases to filter from, instead of letting the system fetch
+  them all from the database backend.
+
+- Once your ``db_name`` and ``dbfilter`` are configured and only match a single database
+  per hostname, you should set ``list_db`` configuration option to ``False``, to prevent
+  listing databases entirely, and to block access to the database management screens
+  (this is also exposed as the :option:`--no-database-list <odoo-bin --no-database-list>`
+  command-line option)
+
+- Make sure the PostgreSQL user (:option:`--db_user <odoo-bin --db_user>`) is *not* a super-user,
+  and that your databases are owned by a different user. For example they could be owned by
+  the ``postgres`` super-user if you are using a dedicated non-privileged ``db_user``.
+  See also :ref:`setup/deploy/odoo`.
+
+- Keep installations updated by regularly installing the latest builds,
+  either via GitHub or by downloading the latest version from
+  https://www.odoo.com/page/download or http://nightly.odoo.com
+
+- Configure your server in multi-process mode with proper limits matching your typical
+  usage (memory/CPU/timeouts). See also :ref:`builtin_server`.
+
+- Run Odoo behind a web server providing HTTPS termination with a valid SSL certificate,
+  in order to prevent eavesdropping on cleartext communications. SSL certificates are
+  cheap, and many free options exist.
+  Configure the web proxy to limit the size of requests, set appropriate timeouts,
+  and then enable the :option:`proxy mode <odoo-bin --proxy-mode>` option.
+  See also :ref:`https_proxy`.
+
+- If you need to allow remote SSH access to your servers, make sure to set a strong password
+  for **all** accounts, not just `root`. It is strongly recommended to entirely disable
+  password-based authentication, and only allow public key authentication. Also consider
+  restricting access via a VPN, allowing only trusted IPs in the firewall, and/or
+  running a brute-force detection system such as `fail2ban` or equivalent.
+
+- Consider installing appropriate rate-limiting on your proxy or firewall, to prevent
+  brute-force attacks and denial of service attacks. See also :ref:`login_brute_force`
+  for specific measures.
+
+  Many network providers provide automatic mitigation for Distributed Denial of
+  Service attacks (DDOS), but this is often an optional service, so you should consult
+  with them.
+
+- Whenever possible, host your public-facing demo/test/staging instances on different
+  machines than the production ones. And apply the same security precautions as for
+  production.
+
+- If your public-facing Odoo server has access to sensitive internal network resources
+  or services (e.g. via a private VLAN), implement appropriate firewall rules to
+  protect those internal resources. This will ensure that the Odoo server cannot
+  be used accidentally (or as a result of malicious user actions) to access or disrupt
+  those internal resources.
+  Typically this can be done by applying an outbound default DENY rule on the firewall,
+  then only explicitly authorizing access to internal resources that the Odoo server
+  needs to access.
+  `Systemd IP traffic access control <http://0pointer.net/blog/ip-accounting-and-access-lists-with-systemd.html>`_
+  may also be useful to implement per-process network access control.
+
+- If your public-facing Odoo server is behind a Web Application Firewall, a load-balancer,
+  a transparent DDoS protection service (like CloudFlare) or a similar network-level
+  device, you may wish to avoid direct access to the Odoo system. It is generally
+  difficult to keep the endpoint IP addresses of your Odoo servers secret. For example
+  they can appear in web server logs when querying public systems, or in the headers
+  of emails posted from Odoo.
+  In such a situation you may want to configure your firewall so that the endpoints
+  are not accessible publicly except from the specific IP addresses of your WAF,
+  load-balancer or proxy service. Service providers like CloudFlare usually maintain
+  a public list of their IP address ranges for this purpose.
+
+- If you are hosting multiple customers, isolate customer data and files from each other
+  using containers or appropriate "jail" techniques.
+
+- Setup daily backups of your databases and filestore data, and copy them to a remote
+  archiving server that is not accessible from the server itself.
+
+- Deploying Odoo on Linux is strongly recommended over Windows. Should you choose nevertheless
+  to deploy on a Windows platform, a thorough security hardening review of the server should be
+  conducted and is outside of the scope of this guide.
+
+
+.. _login_brute_force:
+
+Blocking Brute Force Attacks
+----------------------------
+
+For internet-facing deployments, brute force attacks on user passwords are very common, and this
+threat should not be neglected for Odoo servers. Odoo emits a log entry whenever a login attempt
+is performed, and reports the result: success or failure, along with the target login and source IP.
+
+The log entries will have the following form.
+
+Failed login::
+
+      2018-07-05 14:56:31,506 24849 INFO db_name odoo.addons.base.res.res_users: Login failed for db:db_name login:admin from 127.0.0.1
+
+Successful login::
+
+      2018-07-05 14:56:31,506 24849 INFO db_name odoo.addons.base.res.res_users: Login successful for db:db_name login:admin from 127.0.0.1
+
+
+These logs can be easily analyzed by an intrusion prevention system such as `fail2ban`.
+
+For example, the following fail2ban filter definition should match a
+failed login::
+
+    [Definition]
+    failregex = ^ \d+ INFO \S+ \S+ Login failed for db:\S+ login:\S+ from <HOST>
+    ignoreregex =
+
+This could be used with a jail definition to block the attacking IP on HTTP(S).
+
+Here is what it could look like for blocking the IP for 15 minutes when
+10 failed login attempts are detected from the same IP within 1 minute::
+
+    [odoo-login]
+    enabled = true
+    port = http,https
+    bantime = 900  ; 15 min ban
+    maxretry = 10  ; if 10 attempts
+    findtime = 60  ; within 1 min  /!\ Should be adjusted with the TZ offset
+    logpath = /var/log/odoo.log  ;  set the actual odoo log path here
+
+.. _db_manager_security:
+
+Database Manager Security
+-------------------------
+
+:ref:`setup/deploy/odoo` mentioned ``admin_passwd`` in passing.
+
+This setting is used on all database management screens (to create, delete,
+dump or restore databases).
+
+If the management screens must not be accessible at all, you should set ``list_db``
+configuration option to ``False``, to block access to all the database selection and
+management screens.
+
+.. warning::
+
+  It is strongly recommended to disable the Database Manager for any internet-facing
+  system! It is meant as a development/demo tool, to make it easy to quickly create
+  and manage databases. It is not designed for use in production, and may even expose
+  dangerous features to attackers. It is also not designed to handle large databases,
+  and may trigger memory limits.
+
+  On production systems, database management operations should always be performed by
+  the system administrator, including provisioning of new databases and automated backups.
+
+Be sure to setup an appropriate ``db_name`` parameter
+(and optionally, ``dbfilter`` too) so that the system can determine the target database
+for each request, otherwise users will be blocked as they won't be allowed to choose the
+database themselves.
+
+If the management screens must only be accessible from a selected set of machines,
+use the proxy server's features to block access to all routes starting with ``/web/database``
+except (maybe) ``/web/database/selector`` which displays the database-selection screen.
+
+If the database-management screen should be left accessible, the
+``admin_passwd`` setting must be changed from its ``admin`` default: this
+password is checked before allowing database-alteration operations.
+
+It should be stored securely, and should be generated randomly e.g.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    $ python3 -c 'import base64, os; print(base64.b64encode(os.urandom(24)))'
+
+which generates a 32-character pseudorandom printable string.
+
+Reset the master password
+-------------------------
+
+There may be instances where the master password is misplaced, or compromised, and needs to be
+reset. The following process is for system administrators of an Odoo on-premise database detailing
+how to manually reset and re-encrypt the master password.
+
+.. seealso::
+   For more information about changing an Odoo.com account password, see this documentation:
+   :ref:`odoocom/change_password`.
+
+When creating a new on-premise database, a random master password is generated. Odoo recommends
+using this password to secure the database. This password is implemented by default, so there is a
+secure master password for any Odoo on-premise deployment.
+
+.. warning::
+   When creating an Odoo on-premise database the installation is accessible to anyone on the
+   internet, until this password is set to secure the database.
+
+The master password is specified in the Odoo configuration file (`odoo.conf` or `odoorc` (hidden
+file)). The Odoo master password is needed to modify, create, or delete a database through the
+graphical user interface (GUI).
+
+Locate configuration file
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+First, open the Odoo configuration file (`odoo.conf` or `odoorc` (hidden file)).
+
+.. tabs::
+
+   .. tab:: Windows
+
+      The configuration file is located at: `c:\\ProgramFiles\\Odoo{VERSION}\\server\\odoo.conf`
+
+   .. tab:: Linux
+
+      Depending on how Odoo is installed on the Linux machine, the configuration file is located in
+      one of two different places:
+
+      - Package installation: `/etc/odoo.conf`
+      - Source installation: `~/.odoorc`
+
+Change old password
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Once the appropriate file has been opened, proceed to modify the old password in the configuration
+file to a temporary password.
+
+.. tabs::
+
+   .. group-tab:: Graphical user interface
+
+      After locating the configuration file, open it using a (:abbr:`GUI (graphical user
+      interface)`). This can be achieved by simply double clicking on the file. Then, the device
+      should have a default :abbr:`GUI (graphical user interface)` to open the file with.
+
+      Next, modify the master password line `admin_passwd = $pbkdf2-sha…` to `admin_passwd =
+      newpassword1234`, for example. This password can be anything, as long as it is saved
+      temporarily. Make sure to modify all characters after the `=`.
+
+      .. example::

+
+      Modify the master password line using the following Unix command detailed below.
+
+      Connect to the Odoo server's terminal via Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, and edit the
+      configuration file. To modify the configuration file, enter the following command:
+      :command:`sudo nano /etc/odoo.conf`
+
+      After opening the configuration file, modify the master password line `admin_passwd =
+      $pbkdf2-sha…` to `admin_passwd = newpassword1234`. This password can be anything, as long as
+      it is saved temporarily. Make sure to modify all characters after the `=`.
+
+      .. example::
+         The line appears like this:
+         `admin_passwd =
+         $pbkdf2-sh39dji295.59mptrfW.9z6HkA$w9j9AMVmKAP17OosCqDxDv2hjsvzlLpF8Rra8I7p/b573hji540mk/.3ek0lg%kvkol6k983mkf/40fjki79m`
+
+         The modified line appears like this: `admin_passwd = newpassword1234`
+
+.. important::
+   It is essential that the password is changed to something else, rather than triggering a new
+   password reset by adding a semicolon `;` at the beginning of the line. This ensures the database
+   is secure throughout the entire password reset process.
+
+Restart Odoo server
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+After setting the temporary password, a restart of the Odoo server is **required**.
+
+.. tabs::
+
+   .. group-tab:: Graphical user interface
+
+      To restart the Odoo server, first, type `services` into the Windows :guilabel:`Search` bar.
+      Then, select the :guilabel:`Services` application, and scroll down to the :guilabel:`Odoo`
+      service.
+
+      Next, right click on :guilabel:`Odoo`, and select :guilabel:`Start` or :guilabel:`Restart`.
+      This action manually restarts the Odoo server.
+
+   .. group-tab:: Command-line interface
+
+      Restart the Odoo server by typing the command: :command:`sudo service odoo15 restart`
+
+      .. note::
+         Change the number after `odoo` to fit the specific version the server is running on.
+
+Use web interface to re-encrypt password
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+First, navigate to `/web/database/manager` or `http://server_ip:port/web/database/manager` in a
+browser.
+
+.. note::
+   Replace `server_ip` with the IP address of the database. Replace `port` with the numbered port
+   the database is accessible from.
+
+Next, click :guilabel:`Set Master Password`, and type in the previously-selected temporary password
+into the :guilabel:`Master Password` field. Following this step, type in a :guilabel:`New Master
+Password`. The :guilabel:`New Master Password` is hashed (or encrypted), once the
+:guilabel:`Continue` button is clicked.
+
+At this point, the password has been successfully reset, and a hashed version of the new password
+now appears in the configuration file.

+
+Supported Browsers
+==================
+
+Odoo supports all the major desktop and mobile browsers available on the market,
+as long as they are supported by their publishers.
+
+Here are the supported browsers:
+
+- Google Chrome
+- Mozilla Firefox
+- Microsoft Edge
+- Apple Safari
+
+.. warning:: Please make sure your browser is up-to-date and still supported by
+    its publisher before filing a bug report.
+
+.. note::
+
+    Since Odoo 13.0, ES6 is supported.  Therefore, IE support is dropped.
+
+.. [#different-machines]
+    to have multiple Odoo installations use the same PostgreSQL database,
+    or to provide more computing resources to both software.
+.. [#remote-socket]
+    technically a tool like socat_ can be used to proxy UNIX sockets across
+    networks, but that is mostly for software which can only be used over
+    UNIX sockets
+.. [#switching]
+    or be accessible only over an internal packet-switched network, but that
+    requires secured switches, protections against `ARP spoofing`_ and
+    precludes usage of WiFi. Even over secure packet-switched networks,
+    deployment over HTTPS is recommended, and possible costs are lowered as
+    "self-signed" certificates are easier to deploy on a controlled
+    environment than over the internet.

+Geo IP
+======
+
+.. note::
+   This documentation only applies to On-premise databases.
+
+Installation
+============
+
+#. Download both the GeoLite2 City and Country
+   `databases <https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/>`_. You should end up with two files
+   called :file:`GeoLite2-City.mmdb` and :file:`GeoLite2-Country.mmdb`.
+
+#. Move the files to the folder :file:`/usr/share/GeoIP/`.
+
+   .. code-block:: bash
+
+       mv ~/Downloads/GeoLite2-City.mmdb /usr/share/GeoIP/
+       mv ~/Downloads/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb /usr/share/GeoIP/
+
+#. Restart the server
+
+.. note::
+   If you don't want to locate the geoip database in :file:`/usr/share/GeoIP/`, use the
+   :option:`--geoip-city-db <odoo-bin --geoip-city-db>` and
+   :option:`--geoip-country-db <odoo-bin --geoip-country-db>` options of the Odoo command line
+   interface. These options take the absolute path to the GeoIP database file and use it as the
+   GeoIP database. For example:
+
+   .. code-block:: bash
+
+      ./odoo-bin --geoip-city-db= ~/Downloads/GeoLite2-City.mmdb
+
+   .. seealso::
+      - :doc:`CLI documentation </developer/reference/cli>`.
+
+Test GeoIP geolocation in your Odoo website
+===========================================
+
+Edit a web page to include some geo-ip information such as the country name of the current
+request IP address. To do so:
+
+#. Go to your website. Open the web page that you want to test ``GeoIP``.
+#. Choose :menuselection:`Customize --> HTML/CSS/JS Editor`.
+#. Add the following piece of XML in the page :
+
+   .. code-block:: xml
+
+       <h1 class="text-center" t-esc="request.geoip.country.name or 'geoip failure'"/>
+
+#. Save and refresh the page.
+
+Geo-ip is working if you read your country name displayed in bold in the middle of the page.
+
+In case you read "**geoip failure**" instead then the geolocalization failed. The common causes are:
+
+#. The browsing IP address is the localhost (``127.0.0.1``) or a local area network one. If you
+   don't know, you can access your website using mobile data.
+#. You are using a reverse-proxy (apache, nginx) in front of Odoo but didn't start Odoo with the
+   proxy-mode enabled. See :option:`proxy mode <odoo-bin --proxy-mode>`.
+#. The GeoIP database is corrupt, missing or unaccessible. In such case a warning was logged in the
+   server logs.

+Source install
+==============
+
+The source 'installation' is not about installing Odoo but running it directly from the source
+instead.
+
+Using the Odoo source can be more convenient for module developers as it is more easily accessible
+than using packaged installers.
+
+It makes starting and stopping Odoo more flexible and explicit than the services set up by the
+packaged installers. Also, it allows overriding settings using :ref:`command-line parameters
+<reference/cmdline>` without needing to edit a configuration file.
+
+Finally, it provides greater control over the system's setup and allows to more easily keep (and
+run) multiple versions of Odoo side-by-side.

+
+.. tabs::

+         $ sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-client
+
+   .. group-tab:: Windows

+         To make the command line tools bundled with Postgres.app available, make sure to set up the
+         `$PATH` variable by following the `Postgres.app CLI tools instructions
+         <https://postgresapp.com/documentation/cli-tools.html>`_.
+
+By default, the only user is `postgres`. As Odoo forbids connecting as `postgres`, create a new

+
+      Using **distribution packages** is the preferred way of installing dependencies.
+      Alternatively, install the Python dependencies with **pip**.
+
+      .. tabs::
+
+         .. tab:: Debian/Ubuntu
+
+            On Debian/Ubuntu, the following commands should install the required packages:
+
+            .. code-block:: console
+
+               $ cd odoo #CommunityPath
+               $ sudo ./setup/debinstall.sh
+
+            The `setup/debinstall.sh` script will parse the `debian/control
+            <{GITHUB_PATH}/debian/control>`_ file and install the found packages.
+
+         .. tab:: Install with pip
+
+            .. warning::
+               Using pip may lead to security issues and broken dependencies; only do this if you
+               know what you are doing.
+
+            As some of the Python packages need a compilation step, they require system libraries to
+            be installed.
+
+            On Debian/Ubuntu, the following command should install these required libraries:
+
+            .. code-block:: console
+
+               $ sudo apt install python3-pip libldap2-dev libpq-dev libsasl2-dev
+
+            Odoo dependencies are listed in the :file:`requirements.txt` file located at the root of
+            the Odoo Community directory.
+
+            .. note::
+               The Python packages in :file:`requirements.txt` are based on their stable/LTS
+               Debian/Ubuntu corresponding version at the moment of the Odoo release. For example,
+               for Odoo 15.0, the `python3-babel` package version is 2.8.0 in Debian Bullseye and
+               2.6.0 in Ubuntu Focal. The lowest version is then chosen in the
+               :file:`requirements.txt`.
+
+            .. tip::
+               It can be preferable not to mix Python module packages between different instances of
+               Odoo or with the system. However, it is possible to use `virtualenv
+               <https://pypi.org/project/virtualenv/>`_ to create isolated Python environments.
+
+            Navigate to the path of the Odoo Community installation (:file:`CommunityPath`) and run
+            **pip** on the requirements file to install the requirements for the current user.
+
+            .. code-block:: console
+
+               $ cd /CommunityPath
+               $ pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+   .. group-tab:: Windows
+
+      Before installing the dependencies, download and install the `Build Tools for Visual
+      Studio <https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/>`_. Select **C++ build tools** in the
+      **Workloads** tab and install them when prompted.
+
+      Odoo dependencies are listed in the `requirements.txt` file located at the root of the Odoo

+
+Running Odoo
+------------
+
+Once all dependencies are set up, Odoo can be launched by running `odoo-bin`, the command-line
+interface of the server. It is located at the root of the Odoo Community directory.
+
+To configure the server, either specify :ref:`command-line arguments <reference/cmdline/server>` or
+a :ref:`configuration file <reference/cmdline/config>`.
+
+.. tip::
+   For the Enterprise edition, add the path to the `enterprise` add-ons to the `addons-path`
+   argument. Note that it must come before the other paths in `addons-path` for add-ons to be loaded
+   correctly.
+
+Common necessary configurations are:
+
+- PostgreSQL user and password.
+- Custom addon paths beyond the defaults to load custom modules.
+
+A typical way to run the server would be:
+
+.. tabs::
+
+   .. group-tab:: Linux
+
+      .. code-block:: console
+
+         $ cd /CommunityPath
+         $ python3 odoo-bin --addons-path=addons -d mydb
+
+      Where `CommunityPath` is the path of the Odoo Community installation, and `mydb` is the name
+      of the PostgreSQL database.
+
+   .. group-tab:: Windows
+
+      .. code-block:: doscon
+
+         C:\> cd CommunityPath/
+         C:\> python odoo-bin -r dbuser -w dbpassword --addons-path=addons -d mydb
+
+      Where `CommunityPath` is the path of the Odoo Community installation, `dbuser` is the
+      PostgreSQL login, `dbpassword` is the PostgreSQL password, and `mydb` is the name of the
+      PostgreSQL database.
+
+   .. group-tab:: Mac OS
+
+      .. code-block:: console
+
+         $ cd /CommunityPath
+         $ python3 odoo-bin --addons-path=addons -d mydb
+
+      Where `CommunityPath` is the path of the Odoo Community installation, and `mydb` is the name
+      of the PostgreSQL database.
+
+After the server has started (the INFO log `odoo.modules.loading: Modules loaded.` is printed), open
+http://localhost:8069 in a web browser and log into the Odoo database with the base administrator
+account: use `admin` as the email and, again, `admin` as the password.
+
+.. tip::
+   - From there, create and manage new :doc:`users <../../applications/general/users>`.
+   - The user account used to log into Odoo's web interface differs from the :option:`--db_user
+     <odoo-bin -r>` CLI argument.

+An upgrade is the process of moving your database from an older version to a newer :doc:`supported

+.. spoiler:: Automatic upgrades: Odoo Online's Rolling Release process
+
+   The Rolling Release process allows Odoo Online customers to upgrade their database directly from
+   a message prompt sent to the database administrator as soon as a new version is released. The
+   invitation to upgrade is only sent if no issues are detected during the automatic tests.

+   It is strongly recommended to manually :ref:`test the upgrade first <upgrade/test_your_db>`.
+   Clicking :guilabel:`I want to test first` redirects to `the database manager
+   <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases/>`_, where it is possible to request an upgraded test database
+   and check it for any discrepancies.
+
+   It is **not** recommended to click :guilabel:`Upgrade Now` without testing first, as it
+   immediately triggers the live production database upgrade.
+
+   If the Rolling Release process detects an issue with the upgrade, it will be deactivated until
+   the issue is resolved.
 
 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 Odoo Online

-.. note:: |assistance-contact|
+.. warning::
+   If your database contains custom modules, it cannot be upgraded until a version of your custom

+-----------------------
 
-.. _upgrade/process-workflow:
+#. Request an upgraded test database (see :ref:`obtaining an upgraded test database
+   <upgrade/request-test-database>`).
+#. If applicable, upgrade the source code of your custom module to be compatible with the new
+   version of Odoo (see :doc:`/developer/howtos/upgrade_custom_db`).
+#. Thoroughly test the upgraded database (see :ref:`testing the new version of the database
+   <upgrade/test_your_db>`).
+#. Report any issue encountered during the testing to Odoo by `submitting a ticket for an issue
+   related to my future upgrade (I am testing an upgrade) <https://odoo.com/help?stage=migration>`_.
+#. Once all issues are resolved and you are confident that the upgraded database can be used as
+   your main database without any issues, plan the upgrade of your production database.
+#. Request the upgrade for the production database, rendering it unavailable for the time it takes
+   to complete the process (see :ref:`upgrading the production database <upgrade/upgrade-prod>`).
+#. Report any issue encountered during the upgrade to Odoo by `submitting a ticket for an issue
+   related to my upgrade (production) <https://odoo.com/help?stage=post_upgrade>`_.
 
-Process workflow
-================
+.. _upgrade/request-test-database:
 
-The upgrade process in a nutshell:
+Obtaining an upgraded test database
+-----------------------------------
 
-#. You create a test upgrade request.
-#. Odoo processes the request automatically by running the database through an upgrade script, which
-   takes between 20 and 120 minutes.
-#. 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 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 Odoo Online).

-Testing
-=======
-
-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, :ref:`report your issues <upgrade/test-assistance>` and :ref:`request
-a new test database <upgrade/test-db-request>` when the reported issues are fixed in the upgrade
-script.
-
-If you do not find any discrepancies, you can move on to the upgrade of your production database.
-
-.. important::
-   A test database is only intended for testing and remains completely unrelated to your present or
-   future production database. Any data you add, or changes you make, will not be reflected in your
-   upgraded production database.
+The `Upgrade page <https://upgrade.odoo.com/>`_ is the main platform for requesting an upgraded
+database. However, depending on the hosting type, you can upgrade from the command line
+(on-premise), the `Odoo Online database manager <https://odoo.com/my/databases>`_, or your `Odoo.sh
+project <https://odoo.sh/project>`_.
 
 .. note::
-   Test databases are neutered and features are disabled to prevent them from having an impact on
-   the production database:
+   The Upgrade platform follows the same `Privacy Policy <https://www.odoo.com/privacy>`_ as the
+   other Odoo.com services. Visit the `General Data Protection Regulation page
+   <https://www.odoo.com/gdpr>`_ to learn more about how Odoo handles your data and privacy.
 
-   #. The serial number of the database is modified (to prevent it from sending information as if it
-      was the production database).
-   #. The :ref:`base URL of the database <domain-name/web-base-url>` is reset to
-      ``http://localhost:8069`` and the email domain to ``localhost``.
-   #. Scheduled actions are disabled (the calendar synchronization, the bank statement
-      synchronization, the planned automated actions, the fetching of incoming mail servers, etc.).
-   #. Outgoing mail servers are disabled by archiving the existing ones and adding a
-      fake/non-working one.
-   #. Payment providers and delivery carriers are reset to test environment.
-   #. Accounting localization Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) services are disabled.
-   #. A system parameter is set to tell the database has been neutered.

+      Once the upgrade platform is done upgrading the backup and uploading it on the branch, it is
+      put in a **special mode**: each time a **commit is pushed** on the branch, a **restore
+      operation** of the upgraded backup and an **update of all the custom modules** occur. This
+      allows you to test your custom modules on a pristine copy of the upgraded database. The log
+      file of the upgrade process can be found in your newly upgraded staging build by going to
+      :file:`~/logs/upgrade.log`.
 
-Please provide as much detail as you can (i.e., videos and screenshots to illustrate your issue).
-This will avoid clarifying questions and speed up the resolution process significantly.
+      .. important::
+         In databases where custom modules are installed, their source code must be up-to-date with
+         the target version of Odoo before the upgrade can be performed. If there are none, the
+         "update on commit" mode is skipped, the upgraded database is built as soon as it is
+         transferred from the upgrade platform, and the upgrade mode is exited.
+
+         Check out the :doc:`/developer/howtos/upgrade_custom_db` page for more information.
+
+   .. group-tab:: On-premise
+
+      The standard upgrade process can be initiated by entering the following command line on the
+      machine where the database is hosted:
+
+      .. code-block:: console
+
+         $ python <(curl -s https://upgrade.odoo.com/upgrade) test -d <your db name> -t <target version>
+

+
+      An upgraded test database can also be requested via the `Upgrade page
+      <https://upgrade.odoo.com/>`_.
+
+      .. important::
+         In databases where custom modules are installed, their source code must be up-to-date with
+         the target version of Odoo before the upgrade can be performed. Check out the
+         :doc:`/developer/howtos/upgrade_custom_db` page for more information.
+
+      .. note::
+         - For security reasons, only the person who submitted the upgrade request can download it.
+         - For storage reasons, the database's copy is submitted without a filestore to the upgrade
+           server. Therefore, the upgraded database does not contain the production filestore.
+         - Before restoring the upgraded database, its filestore must be merged with the production
+           filestore to be able to perform tests in the same conditions as it would be in the new
+           version.
+         - The upgraded database contains:
+
+           - A `dump.sql` file containing the upgraded database
+           - A `filestore` folder containing files extracted from in-database records into
+             attachments (if there are any) and new standard Odoo files from the targeted Odoo
+             version (e.g., new images, icons, payment provider's logos, etc.).
+             This is the folder that should be merged with the production filestore
+             in order to get the full upgraded filestore.
 
 .. note::
-   * The purpose of the test phase is not to correct existing data or configurations in your
+   You can request multiple test databases if you wish to test an upgrade more than once.
+
+.. _upgrade/upgrade_report:
+
+.. note::
+   When an upgrade request is completed, an upgrade report is attached to the successful upgrade
+   email, and it becomes available in the Discuss app for users who are part of the "Administration
+   / Settings" group. This report provides important information about the changes introduced by
+   the new version.
+
+.. _upgrade/test_your_db:
+
+Testing the new version of the database
+---------------------------------------
+
+It is essential to spend some time testing the upgraded test database to ensure that you are not
+stuck in your day-to-day activities by a change in views, behavior, or an error message once the
+upgrade goes live.
+
+.. note::
+   Test databases are neutralized, and some features are disabled to prevent them from impacting the
+   production database:
+
+   #. Scheduled actions are disabled.
+   #. Outgoing mail servers are disabled by archiving the existing ones and adding a fake one.
+   #. Payment providers and delivery carriers are reset to the test environment.
+   #. Bank synchronization is disabled. Should you want to test the synchronization, contact your
+      bank synchronization provider to get sandbox credentials.
+
+Testing as many of your business flows as possible is strongly recommended to ensure they are
+working correctly and to get more familiar with the new version.
+
+.. admonition:: Basic test checklist
+
+   - Are there views that are deactivated in your test database but active in your production
+     database?
+   - Are your usual views still displayed correctly?
+   - Are your reports (invoice, sales order, etc.) correctly generated?
+   - Are your website pages working correctly?
+   - Are you able to create and modify records? (sales orders, invoices, purchases, users, contacts,
+     companies, etc.)
+   - Are there any issues with your mail templates?
+   - Are there any issues with saved translations?
+   - Are your search filters still present?
+   - Can you export your data?
+
+.. spoiler:: Example of end-to-end testing
+
+   - Checking a random product in your product catalog and comparing its test and production data to
+     verify everything is the same (product category, selling price, cost price, vendor, accounts,
+     routes, etc.).
+   - Buying this product (Purchase app).
+   - Confirming the reception of this product (Inventory app).
+   - Checking if the route to receive this product is the same in your production database
+     (Inventory app).
+   - Selling this product (Sales app) to a random customer.
+   - Opening your customer database (Contacts app), selecting a customer (or company), and checking
+     its data.
+   - Shipping this product (Inventory app).
+   - Checking if the route to ship this product is the same as in your production database
+     (Inventory app).
+   - Validating a customer invoice (Invoicing or Accounting app).
+   - Crediting the invoice (issuing a credit note) and checking if it behaves as in your production
      database.
-   * |assistance-contact|
+   - Checking your reports' results (Accounting app).
+   - Randomly checking your taxes, currencies, bank accounts, and fiscal year (Accounting app).
+   - Making an online order (Website apps) from the product selection in your shop until the
+     checkout process and checking if everything behaves as in your production database.
 
-.. _upgrade/steps-production:
+   This list is **not** exhaustive. Extend the example to your other apps based on your use of Odoo.
 
-The production launch
-=====================
+If you face an issue while testing your upgraded test database, you can request the assistance of
+Odoo by `submitting a ticket for an issue related to my future upgrade (I am testing an upgrade)
+<https://odoo.com/help?stage=migration>`_. In any case, it is essential to report any problem
+encountered during the testing to fix it before upgrading your production database.
 
-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.
+You might encounter significant differences with standard views, features, fields, and models during
+testing. Those changes cannot be reverted on a case-by-case basis. However, if a change introduced
+by a new version breaks a customization, it is the responsibility of the maintainer of your custom
+module to make it compatible with the new version of Odoo.
 
-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.
+.. tip::
+   Do not forget to test:
+
+   - Integrations with external software (EDI, APIs, etc.)
+   - Workflows between different apps (online sales with eCommerce, converting a lead all the way to
+     a sales order, delivery of products, etc.)
+   - Data exports
+   - Automated actions
+   - Server actions in the action menu on form views, as well as by selecting multiple records on
+     list views
+
+.. _upgrade/upgrade-prod:
+
+Upgrading the production database
+---------------------------------
+
+Once the :ref:`tests <upgrade/test_your_db>` are completed and you are confident that the upgraded
+database can be used as your main database without any issues, it is time to plan the go-live day.
+
+Your production database will be unavailable during its upgrade. Therefore, we recommend planning
+the upgrade at a time when the use of the database is minimal.
+
+As the standard upgrade scripts and your database are constantly evolving, it is also recommended
+to frequently request another upgraded test database to ensure that the upgrade process is still
+successful, especially if it takes a long time to finish. **Fully rehearsing the upgrade process the
+day before upgrading the production database is also recommended.**
 
 .. important::
    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)
+   - Users failing to adjust to the changes and new features
+   - Business interruptions (e.g., no longer having the possibility to validate an action)
+   - Poor customer experience (e.g., an eCommerce website that does not work correctly)

-.. _upgrade/contact:
+      .. important::
+         The database is unavailable throughout the process. If anything goes wrong, the platform
+         automatically reverts the upgrade, as it would be for a regular update. In case of success,
+         a backup of the database before the upgrade is created.
 
-Contact our upgrade service support
------------------------------------
+      The update of your custom modules must be successful to complete the entire upgrade process.
+      Make sure the status of your staging upgrade is :guilabel:`successful` before trying it in
+      production. More information on how to upgrade your custom modules can be found on
+      :doc:`/developer/howtos/upgrade_custom_db`.

-.. _upgrade/supported-versions:
+      The command to upgrade a database to production is similar to the one of upgrading a test
+      database except for the argument `test`, which must be replaced by `production`:
 
-Supported versions
-------------------
+      .. code-block:: console

-Odoo.
+         $ python <(curl -s https://upgrade.odoo.com/upgrade) production -d <your db name> -t <target version>
 
-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).
+      An upgraded production database can also be requested via the `Upgrade page
+      <https://upgrade.odoo.com/>`_.
+      Once the database is uploaded, any modification to your production database will **not** be
+      present on your upgraded database. This is why we recommend not using it during the upgrade
+      process.
 
-.. seealso::
-   :doc:`maintain/supported_versions`
+      .. important::
+         When requesting an upgraded database for production purposes, the copy is submitted without

-===========
-
-* You benefit from the latest features of the :ref:`new major version
-  <upgrade-faq/release-notes>` released by Odoo.
-* If you are in an :ref:`unsupported version <upgrade/supported-versions>`, you get a new version
-  with support.
-
-.. _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.
-
-.. _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 to be similar to the
-production upgrade.
-
-.. _upgrade-faq/project:
-
-Duration of 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

-The Upgrade Report
-==================
-
-When an upgrade request completes successfully (test or production), you receive an email

-Discuss app. It contains valuable information regarding changes that occurred during the upgrade.
-While it serves as a guide to possible issues to look out for, it is not an exhaustive list. It

-How long is my test available for
-=================================
-
-An Odoo Online 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.
-
-Your data is hosted on servers that follow our security guidelines, namely:
-
-- SSL - All web connections to client instances are protected with 256-bit SSL encryption
-  (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
-- Security personnel on-site 24/7
-
-The uploaded and migrated databases uploaded to the Upgrade platform are kept for up to 3 months and
-are permanently deleted following that period.
-
-You can learn more about privacy and data handling at Odoo by visiting our `General Data Protection
-Regulation page <https://www.odoo.com/gdpr>`_.
-
-Rolling Release (applicable to Odoo Online databases)
-=====================================================
-
-This feature allows customers to upgrade their database directly from a message prompt sent to the
-database administrator as soon as the new version is released. Odoo first tests the upgrade to the
-next version. The rolling release upgrade option is displayed if the automated tests are successful.
-The message offers two options:
-
-#. To 'Upgrade Now', which immediately triggers the upgrade of your live production database.
-
-#. To take you to your `database manager <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases/>`_ where you can
-   `request an upgraded test database <https://upgrade.odoo.com/#online/>`_ and check the upgraded
-   test database for any discrepancies.
-
-When you choose to proceed with the production upgrade directly, make sure all users have saved
-their work and are logged out. The upgrade takes approximately 15 minutes. During this time your
-database is unreachable. If you notice any problem after the upgrade, please report it via the `Odoo
-Support page <https://www.odoo.com/help>`_.
-
-.. note::
-   If you are using the Website or Studio app, we recommend you always do a test upgrade before
-   upgrading your production instance.

-Odoo.sh is integrated with the upgrade platform to make the upgrade process easier.
-

-   The :guilabel:`Upgrade` tab is available in the branches view. It is only available for valid
-   projects with a valid production build.
-

-   :align: center
-   :alt: Click on the upgrade menu
-
-The suggested upgrade steps on Odoo.sh are:
-
-#. On a :guilabel:`Development` branch, upgrade your custom modules to keep them compatible with the
-   new version and thoroughly **test them**.
-#. Switch that branch to the :guilabel:`Staging` branch, **upgrade** the last daily production
-   backup and **test it**. Write upgrade scripts if necessary.
-#. Trigger the production upgrade from your :guilabel:`Production` branch and sit tight.

-
-Upgrade your custom modules
-===========================
-
-The first step is to upgrade your custom modules to keep them compatible with the new version. Fork
-your :guilabel:`Production` branch in the :guilabel:`Development` stage, then go to the settings of
-your :guilabel:`Development` branch and select the Odoo version you target. If needed, modify your
-code to be compatible with the new version. Make sure to **test** your features are still working
-correctly.
-
-.. note::
-   Depending on your contract, the upgrade of your custom modules can be done by yourself, by your
-   Partner or by Odoo (if you hold a subscription including maintenance of customizations).
-
-.. _upgrade/odoo_sh/testing-phase:
-
-Upgrade your database on a staging branch
-=========================================
-
-Take the upgraded development branch and drag & drop it to :guilabel:`Staging`.
-
-Go to the :guilabel:`Upgrade` tab and select the :guilabel:`target version`. Then, click on
-:guilabel:`Test Upgrade`.
-
-.. image:: odoo_sh/odoo-sh-staging.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: Odoo.sh project and tabs
-
-The **latest production daily automatic backup** is sent to the
-`upgrade platform <https://www.upgrade.odoo.com>`_ to start the upgrade test process.
-
-.. note::
-   You can follow the upgrade process by going to the :guilabel:`Upgrade` menu of your
-   :guilabel:`Production` branch.
-
-When the upgraded backup is ready on the `upgrade platform <https://www.upgrade.odoo.com>`_, it is
-automatically downloaded back to your project.
-
-The branch is now in a **special mode**: each time a **commit is pushed** on the branch, a
-**restore operation** of the upgraded backup occurs, and an **update of all the custom modules**
-happens. This allows you to quickly iterate on your custom modules upgrade scripts. The log file of
-the upgrade process can be found at :file:`~/logs/upgrade.log` in your newly upgraded staging build.
-
-.. note::
-   - The **special upgrade mode** is automatically closed after 30 days.
-   - It may happen that custom modules are no longer needed after an upgrade. Custom modules in the
-     upgraded database are set to be updated. If the modules are missing in the code, the update
-     fails, thus failing the whole process. An empty module with a manifest and possibly some custom
-     upgrade script are necessary to clean up the database. The complete removal of the module has
-     to be handled afterwards.
-
-Functionally test your upgraded database
-========================================
-
-Now that the test upgraded database is available on your staging branch, **thoroughly test it** and
-make sure everything runs as it's supposed to. Once you are satisfied with the result, you are ready
-to upgrade your production database.
-
-Production upgrade
-==================
-
-Once you are happy with your testing, you can start the process on the :guilabel:`Production`
-branch.
-
-On your :guilabel:`Production` branch, go to the :guilabel:`Upgrade` tab, select the
-:guilabel:`targeted version` and click on the :guilabel:`start Upgrade` button.
-
-.. image:: odoo_sh/odoo-sh-prod.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: View from the upgrade tab
-
-The actual process is **triggered as soon as you push a new commit** in your branch. Make sure you
-are pushing code that is compatible with the new version. For example by merging the code from your
-upgraded staging branch.
-
-.. note::
-   You can see the progress of the upgrade by going to the :guilabel:`Upgrade` tab of the main
-   branch.

-.. image:: odoo_sh/odoo-sh-progress.png
-   :align: center
-   :alt: View showing the progress of the upgrade
-
-.. important::
-   Your database is unavailable throughout the process.
-
-.. note::
-   If anything goes wrong, the platform automatically reverts the upgrade, the same as it would be
-   for a regular update. In case of success, a backup is always made.
-
-The update of your custom modules must be successful to complete the entire upgrade process. Make
-sure the status of your staging upgrade is :guilabel:`successful` before trying it in production.
-
-.. note::
-   It may happen that custom modules are no longer needed after an upgrade. Custom modules in the
-   upgraded database are set to be updated. If the modules are missing in the code, the update
-   fails, thus failing the whole process. An empty module with a manifest and possibly some custom
-   upgrade script are necessary to clean up the database. The complete removal of the module has to

-On-Premise
-==========
-
-Test upgrade request
-====================
-
-There are two ways to create your upgrade request.
-
-Upgrade request via command line
---------------------------------
-
-For technically-advanced users and partners, the upgrade process can be initiated via the following
-command line on the server where the database is hosted:
-
-:command:`python <(curl -s https://upgrade.odoo.com/upgrade) test -d <your db name> -t
-<target version>`
-
-The above command creates the database dump, sends it to the upgrade platform, and initiates the
-automated upgrade process. During the upgrade, you can follow the live logs on your screen.
-Once the upgrade process is completed successfully, the upgraded database is restored onto the
-server (as a duplicate test database).
-
-Upgrade request via the Odoo Upgrade Portal
--------------------------------------------
-
-#. Download a recent copy of your database and select the option :guilabel:`pg_dump custom format
-   (without filestore)`.
-#. Upload this dump file at https://upgrade.odoo.com and select *Testing* as the aim.
-   Odoo performs the automated upgrade process. Once it is completed, you receive an email with a
-   link to download the upgrade database dump file.
-#. Import the upgraded database into your on-premise environment and manually test all processes and
-   workflows.
-
-.. note::
-   - For security reasons, only the person who submitted the upgrade request is able to download it.
-   - Any problem found during testing should be reported via the `helpdesk
-     <https://odoo.com/help>`_.
-
-Upgrade your production database
-================================
-
-Once you have completed the testing successfully, you can proceed to upgrade your live database in
-production. Download your upgraded database from the link in the email and import it onto your live
-environment.
-
-Custom modules (if applicable)
-==============================
-
-The upgrade of a database that contains custom modules is a two-step process.
-
-#. The standard upgrade is done when your upgrade request is completed.
-#. Your custom modules also need to be upgraded to keep them compatible with the new version.
-
-Depending on your contract, the upgrade of your custom modules can be done
-
-#. by yourself.
-#. by your Partner.
-#. by Odoo (if you hold a subscription to 'Maintenance of Customizations').

+buttons*.
+
+Here, Odoo displays a variety of records, related to this contact, that were created on other apps.

+
+.. example::
+   For example, there is an :guilabel:`Opportunities` smart button, where all the opportunities
+   related to this customer from the *CRM* app are accessible.
+
+.. tip::
+   If the corresponding applications are installed, their related smart buttons appear
+   automatically on a contact form.
+
+A user can see any :guilabel:`Meetings`, :guilabel:`Sales`, :guilabel:`POS Orders`,
+:guilabel:`Subscriptions`, project :guilabel:`Tasks`, and the :guilabel:`More` smart button reveals

+Merge contacts
+==============
+
+Odoo's *Contacts* application allows user's to merge duplicate contacts, without losing any
+information in the process. This keeps the database organized, and prevents contacts from being
+contacted by more than one salesperson.
+
+.. _contacts/merge-duplicate:
+
+Merge duplicate contacts
+========================
+
+.. danger::
+   Merging is an irreversible action. Do **not** merge contacts unless absolutely certain they
+   should be combined.
+
+Navigate to the :menuselection:`Contacts app`, and select the :icon:`oi-view-list`
+:guilabel:`(list)` icon. Select two or more duplicate contacts from the list, and tick the checkbox
+(on the far-left) for the contacts that should be merged. Then, click the :icon:`fa-cog`
+:guilabel:`Actions` icon, and select :guilabel:`Merge` from the resulting drop-down menu.
+
+.. image:: merge/merge-menu.png
+   :align: center
+   :alt: The merge contacts option in the Contacts application.
+
+This opens the :guilabel:`Merge` pop-up window. From here, review the details of the contacts before
+confirming they should be merged. If any contacts in the list should **not** be merged, click the
+:icon:`fa-times` :guilabel:`(delete)` icon at the far right of the contact.
+
+.. tip::
+   Click the individual contact to open the record for that contact, and view additional
+   information.
+
+.. image:: merge/merge-window.png
+   :align: center
+   :alt: The merge pop-up window in the Contacts application.
+
+Click the :guilabel:`Destination Contact` field, and select an option from the drop-down list. This
+field defaults to the contact record that was created first in the system.
+
+After confirming the information on the pop-up window, click :guilabel:`Merge Contacts`.
+
+Deduplicate contacts
+====================
+
+After the merge is finished, a pop-up window appears confirming it is complete. This pop-up window
+also contains a :guilabel:`Deduplicate the other Contacts` button. This feature searches for
+duplicated records, based on selected criteria, and merges them automatically, or after manual
+approval.
+
+Click the :guilabel:`Deduplicate the other Contacts` button to open the :guilabel:`Deduplicate
+Contacts` pop-up window.
+
+Select one or more fields to be used in the search for duplicated records. Duplicated contacts can
+be searched, based on the following criteria:
+
+- :guilabel:`Email`
+- :guilabel:`Name`
+- :guilabel:`Is Company`
+- :guilabel:`VAT`
+- :guilabel:`Parent Company`
+
+.. note::
+   If more than one field is selected, only records that have **all** fields in common are suggested
+   as duplicates.
+
+If necessary, select criteria to be used to exclude potential duplicates from the search. Potential
+duplicates can be excluded from the search, based on the following criteria:
+
+- :guilabel:`A user associated to the contact`
+- :guilabel:`Journal Items associated to the contact`
+
+After confirming the search criteria, click either :guilabel:`Merge with Manual Check`,
+:guilabel:`Merge Automatically`, or :guilabel:`Merge Automatically all process`.
+
+If :guilabel:`Merge with Manual Check` is selected, complete the merge by following the :ref:`steps
+above <contacts/merge-duplicate>`.
