Make exports from v6.1.1.
Manipulate the exports
And after that import the manipulated data back into OpenERP v6.1.1.

import it in v7.

You should only need Python and the four easy_install libraries I mention. git clone the project and run it. If you hit a problem with those please let me know immediately. I have been wanting to make a YouTube video showing the complete procedure from scratch, but I have a commitment to a client that has to have priority. You may prefer to wait for the video if my written instructions fail to serve. A 'dictum' of OSS software is "Release early. Release often!" but that's for the benefit of collaborators rather than end-users. Which of those are you? "Buyer beware" ;-)

@Martin I agree with the dictum. I am end-user. A change is a trigger for the start of a money flow from end-user to collaboraters, the more change the more money for the collaboraters. I will report back my findings.

Error in step 6, see my answer.

btw, I have not addressed the export side at all. My data is coming from Google spreadsheets, so I have not needed that aspect. It's also postponed because the export side is many times easier than the import side, and I prefer to solve the hardest problems first.
