Subscriptions & recurring revenue
Subscription management software runs recurring revenue: plans, periodic billing, renewals and cancellations. In Odoo, subscriptions are linked to accounting and CRM: the periodic invoice is generated automatically per the plan, and MRR and churn metrics are always under control.
It's the system that runs recurring revenue: it defines plans, issues periodic invoices, manages renewals, upgrades and cancellations, and measures the metrics typical of the subscription model. When integrated with accounting, each recurring invoice posts automatically; when linked to the CRM, you know the customer and their history.
Periodic billing runs on its own per the plan.
Define plans with price, frequency, free trial and renewal terms.
The subscription is created from an order or the portal, with the customer linked to the CRM.

What changes between invoicing fees by hand and managing subscriptions in the suite.
| Manual invoices / sheet | Integrated subscriptions (Odoo) | |
|---|---|---|
| Billing | Recreated each period by hand | Automatic recurring per the plan |
| Renewals | From memory, with missed deadlines | Managed with status and alerts |
| Failed payments | Hard to track | Reminders and dunning |
| Metrics | Computed separately | MRR and churn in dashboards |
| The customer | Disconnected from the CRM | Single history with the CRM |
Subscriptions don't live alone: they're created from an order or the portal, the customer lives in the CRM, the periodic invoice posts to accounting and payments reconcile. It's the same data linking sales, customers and books, so you always know how much your recurring revenue is worth and where to act.
Those selling software subscriptions or recurring services who want automated billing and metrics.
Companies with maintenance or support contracts on a periodic fee.
Businesses with recurring membership or association fees to manage and renew.
