.. danger::
Utilizing a multi-company environment in an Odoo database warrants a subscription change from
*Standard* (or *One App Free*) to a *Custom* plan. Should the administrator not migrate the
subscription to a *Custom* plan after adding another company, the database risks being
deactivated. For more information, consult the `Odoo Pricing page
<https://www.odoo.com/pricing-plan>`_.

If the customer is on the *Standard* plan, and adds multi-company functionality to the database,
it triggers an upsell for the *Custom* plan.

If they are on a *Yearly* or *Multi-year* contract, this creates an upsell order, with a 30-day
limit (risking deactivation). If multi-company functionality is fully removed within that time
period, the next time the database pings, the upsell order and limit are removed automatically.
.. warning::
Enabling multi-company functionality in an Odoo database on a *Standard* plan automatically
triggers an upsell to the *Custom* plan. This does not apply to databases on the *One-App Free*
plan.

If the customer is on a *Monthly* contract, once the next bill is created, and multi-company
functionality is still detected while they are on a *Standard* plan, they are automatically
switched, and billed on the *Custom* plan.
- **For yearly or multi-year contracts**: An upsell order is created with a 30-day limit.
- **For monthly contracts**: The subscription automatically switches to the *Custom* plan and
the new rate is applied when the next bill is generated.

Should the customer want to go back to *Standard*, the Customer Success Team **must** be
contacted.
For more information, refer to `Odoo's pricing page <https://www.odoo.com/pricing-plan>`_ or
contact your account manager.
