Connecting Pemo to Odoo lets you send expenses, reimbursements, wallet movements, and invoices straight into Odoo as journal entries. That means less manual typing, fewer errors, and cleaner books.
This guide walks you through the setup, step by step.
1. Check Your Access
Before you begin, make sure you have the right permissions.
In Pemo
You need to be an Admin or Accountant.
In Odoo
You need Accounting or Administrator access, with permission to:

Configure Taxes / VAT
If you’re not sure, check with your internal admin or finance lead.

3. Enter your Odoo credentials.
If you manage multiple companies / databases:
Select the correct Odoo company that should receive Pemo data.
Then select continue to complete the connection.
4. Choose Your Pemo Wallet Account
Once Odoo is connected, Pemo needs to know which account in Odoo represents your Pemo Wallet. This is the account that will be credited or debited in journal entries.
You have two options:
Use an existing account in Odoo
For example, a dedicated “Pemo Wallet” bank/cash account.
Select it from the list in Pemo.
Create a new one in Odoo first
In Odoo, create a new bank/cash account for Pemo Wallet.
Come back to Pemo and select that account as your payment account.
You can change this in your Pemo accounting settings later if needed.
Pemo Power Tip: Switch on Copilot as part of your setup for your expense fields to be automatically categorized.

After the connection is set up, Pemo will use your Odoo configuration so exports match your books.
Depending on your setup, Pemo can sync:
Chart of Accounts
So you can choose the correct expense accounts when coding transactions.
VAT / Tax options
To ensure VAT sent in journal entries lands in the right VAT input account.
Suppliers / Contacts
So vendor names in Pemo match your Odoo records.
This keeps your categorization in Pemo aligned with your accounting structure in Odoo.
