THE DIRECT ANSWER

Define which system owns technical issues, source revisions, deployment events and commercial milestones. Exchange stable references and selected reviewed status changes rather than making every repository event update customer billing. Preserve manual approval where acceptance depends on customer evidence, and make integration failures visible to the delivery owner responsible for the engagement.

Understand the decision

A merged change can fail deployment, and a production deployment can still await user acceptance. Repositories and issue trackers also contain internal discussions that should not appear in customer-facing project records. The mapping must preserve those boundaries while giving administrators enough evidence to coordinate the commercial workflow.

Work through the requirements

  1. Separate technical and commercial status meanings.
  2. Map stable issue and release identifiers.
  3. Test event order and customer visibility.

Watch for this failure

A connector can make a project look complete before its release is usable. Preserve the distinction between code, deployment and acceptance, and test failed and out-of-order events before using technical updates to advance commercial stages.

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.
