Finding an accountant in Germany who is familiar with using Odoo for accounting bookings can be challenging, as it requires specialized knowledge and expertise. However, you can try the following approaches to find a suitable accountant:

Odoo Community: Reach out to the Odoo community, including the Odoo forums, mailing lists, or user groups specific to Germany. Engage with the community and inquire if anyone can recommend or provide accounting services using Odoo.

Odoo Partners: Contact Odoo's official partners in Germany. Odoo partners are certified professionals who have expertise in implementing and using Odoo. They may have accountants within their teams or connections with accountants who are familiar with Odoo.

Local Accounting Networks: Explore local accounting networks or organizations in Germany that specialize in supporting businesses with their accounting needs. These networks may have accountants who are familiar with using Odoo or who can quickly adapt to the system.

Freelancers and Independent Consultants: Look for freelance accountants or independent consultants who have experience with Odoo specialized accounting websites can help you find professionals with the required expertise.

When reaching out to potential accountants, clearly communicate your requirements, including your preference for using Odoo for accounting bookings. Discuss their familiarity with the system, their previous experience with similar projects, and their understanding of German accounting practices and regulations.

It's important to evaluate and interview potential accountants to ensure they have the necessary skills, knowledge, and compatibility with your business. Request references or client testimonials to validate their expertise and verify their credentials.

Lastly, consider signing a confidentiality agreement and outlining the scope of work and expectations to protect your business's sensitive financial information and ensure a clear understanding of responsibilities.

Remember to conduct due diligence and thoroughly vet any potential accountant before making a final decision.

If the accounting module is setup properly, you can do this on your own with appropriate training (external or auto-didactic). Especially if you do not have to deal with to many entries. And it depends on the company form, as it will bring up different levels of reporting you have to provide.

If you already have a tax consultant (Steuerberater), i would talk to him at first stage. I know cases, where even the consultant was willing to perform the final postings together with the customer or even on his own after proper briefing. I guess this is not a very common way. But in that case it was the easiest way for all of the people involved.

If you do not have a tax consultant, my advise would be to get into it for your own first. Especially for getting an idea of what the tax accountant needs to cover for you. 

Hi Simon, 

If you dont have too much bookings, then my suggestion would be to do it yourself. The accounting in Odoo is very easy. You can reach out to D9T GmbH (Odoo Partner) in Germany and we can teach you the basics of German Accounting in Odoo.  It will be a one time investment and a lot cheaper in the longer run.
