About Indo United Naturals
Indo United Naturals is a beverage manufacturing company based in Rajkot, specializing in soft drinks, ORS liquids, fruit juices, electrolyte drinks, and zero sugar beverages. The company operates as a manufacturer and wholesaler serving growing market demand across beverage categories.
The organization manages manufacturing, sales, and distribution operations as part of its day-to-day business processes and required a more connected ERP for food and beverage industry workflows. With a focus on product quality, operational consistency, and business growth, Indo United Naturals required a more structured system to support its expanding manufacturing and billing operations.
"We required a customized ERP solution for our beverage manufacturing business, especially for invoice compliance and discount calculations. Despite using Odoo Online, the implementation team successfully delivered the required invoice customization, automated discount allocation, and manufacturing setup according to our business needs. The implementation has significantly improved our operational efficiency and billing processes."

Key Challenges Faced
Manual Manufacturing and Operational Processes
Bills of Materials (BOM), manufacturing data, and several operational activities were managed manually. This increased process dependency, reduced operational efficiency, and made daily workflow management more difficult.
Lack of Centralized Business Visibility
Manufacturing, sales, and accounting operations were not fully integrated within a single system. This limited visibility across departments and affected coordination between operational and financial processes.
Invoice Compliance and Billing Complexity
The standard Odoo Online invoice format did not meet the company's required business and statutory structure. The business required a customized invoice layout with E-Invoice Number, QR Code, E-Way Bill details, and accurate discount handling within the billing workflow.
Odoo Online SaaS Customization Limitations
Since the implementation was carried out on Odoo Online, backend code-level customization was restricted. Implementing advanced invoice formatting, discount automation, and workflow-specific logic within the SaaS environment was a major challenge.
Solutions Offered
Based on the identified challenges, a customized ERP for food and beverage industry operations was implemented to centralize manufacturing, billing, and operational processes.
Centralized Odoo ERP Setup
- Implemented Odoo 18 Enterprise Online to centralize manufacturing, sales, and accounting operations within a unified system.
Manufacturing and BOM Configuration

Invoice Customization for GST Compliance
- Customized the invoice format using Odoo Studio according to the company's required billing structure. The invoice layout included E-Invoice Number, GST QR Code, and E-Way Bill details.
