Project Module

Tasks, timesheets, and project billing in one workflow.

Odoo Project connects your project delivery to your billing and payroll. Log time, track progress, and invoice customers — all from the same platform your team works in every day.

Key capabilities

What Odoo Project does for your business.

Kanban & Gantt views

Visual task management with Kanban boards for agile workflows and Gantt charts for timeline planning. Switch views without leaving the project.

Timesheet integration

Team members log hours directly against tasks and projects. Time entries flow automatically into payroll and project billing.

Project profitability

Real-time view of hours consumed vs. budgeted, and revenue invoiced vs. project value. See which projects are margin-positive before they close.

Milestone & deadline tracking

Define project phases, milestones, and deadlines. Automated alerts notify the PM when tasks are overdue or budgets are at risk.

Client portal

Clients log in to view project progress, approve deliverables, and access their invoices — without needing access to your internal Odoo system.

Timesheet to invoice

Invoice customers for time and materials directly from approved timesheet entries. One click from approved hours to a sent invoice.

Problems we solve

Three problems every Project deployment solves.

💡

The problem

Project managers chasing timesheet submissions every week via email

Odoo solution

Odoo prompts team members to submit timesheets from the task they're working on. Submissions are linked to tasks automatically — no separate timesheet tool, no email chasing.

⚡

The problem

No visibility into project profitability until the project closes — months later

Odoo solution

Odoo shows live cost (hours × rate + expenses) vs. contracted value throughout the project. PMs see margin in real time and can raise scope changes before the budget is breached.

🎯

The problem

Invoicing takes a day each month — exporting timesheets, building spreadsheets, creating invoices

Odoo solution

Approved timesheet entries flow directly into Odoo invoicing. Select the project, select the billing period, and Odoo generates the invoice. The entire process takes minutes, not hours.

Client result

Invoicing cycle from 3 days to 45 minutes.

A 40-person consultancy was exporting timesheet data from one tool, consolidating it in Excel, and manually building invoices in their accounting system. Monthly invoicing took 3 full days for 2 people.

Odoo Project connected timesheets directly to invoicing. Approved hours create invoices automatically. The monthly invoicing cycle for all clients now takes 45 minutes.
