What happens to custom developments after an Odoo version upgrade

Question

So the idea is that you send in a database to Odoo, and then you will get one back that is adapted to a newer Odoo version.

Now I wonder what happens with all custom developments. What happens to tables and fields that were added through custom developments? Does that data still exist in the database we will get back?

Hi Christoph,
Odoo will migrate/rework all default Odoo data tables according to the new version. They do not touch the fields and tables of custom development so you get them back 'as-is' basically.
This means that you will need to migrate your custom code and that if you need field or table changes on your custom development that you are responsible for doing so.
In general Odoo does not touch custom code nor models/fields.
With kind regards,
Yenthe

Extra Module - An extra module is a directory of source code files, or a set of Python-based customizations created in a database (e.g. with Odoo Stu
