THE DIRECT ANSWER

Rehearse an engagement with client dependencies, associate effort and a reviewed billing milestone. Include a changed research question and an expense arriving late. Delivery leads and finance should explain the same remaining obligations and intended charges, while confidential information remains limited to the people authorized to use it.

Understand the decision

Use a sample project with a fixed fee and a separately approved additional workshop. Have an associate record work through an ordinary account, then delay a client review. The rehearsal should reveal whether commercial acceptance, actual effort and information access remain distinguishable throughout the engagement.

Work through the requirements

  1. Test a fixed fee and approved addition.
  2. Introduce delayed client review and late costs.
  3. Reconcile acceptance, effort and access evidence.

Watch for this failure

A polished report demo does not prove the consultancy can manage costs, approvals and confidentiality. Have delivery, associates and finance complete their own steps and retain evidence that unresolved client decisions remain visible before launch.

This example defines what to verify, rather than promising a particular Odoo feature. Keep a record of the demonstrated result, configuration, unresolved gaps and person who accepts it.
