We discovered how to back up and restore databases, as well as how to manage user access and group permissions.

Later in this chapter, we looked at internationalization and configured Odoo to handle multiple languages and international currency. We learned how to change Odoo sequences so that our documents will use formats and numbering systems that work for our business requirements.
