If you arrived here from the plans page, a banner confirms which plan you’re setting up (name, billing cycle, users, storage) above the form.
Provisioning¶
After you submit, you’re redirected to /instances/<id>/provisioning, which
polls status and walks through five stages:
Creating PostgreSQL Database — preparing your dedicated database
Creating Odoo Container — creating your isolated Odoo environment
Initializing Odoo — starting Odoo and preparing your ERP environment
Finalizing Tenant — completing final configuration
ERP Instance Ready — your environment is ready to use
Once it reaches “ERP Instance Ready”, an Open ERP button appears — see Access your ERP.
