    Everything your team needs to deliver great work.

    One platform for planning, executing, tracking, and billing your projects — connected to your CRM, invoicing, and HR.


    ​

    Kanban Task Boards

    Visualise every project with drag-and-drop kanban boards. Create stages that match your workflow, assign tasks to team members, set deadlines, and move work through your pipeline at a glance.


    Gantt & Timeline Views

    Plan project timelines, identify dependencies, and spot bottlenecks before they become problems. Odoo's Gantt view lets managers see the full picture across multiple projects simultaneously.


    Timesheets & Time Tracking

    Team members log time directly against tasks with a built-in timer or manual entry. Timesheet data flows into billing and payroll — no separate time-tracking tool, no double-entry.


    Project Billing & Invoicing

    Bill clients based on timesheets, milestones, or fixed fees — directly from your project. Odoo generates the invoice automatically from logged hours or completed deliverables.


    Real-Time Progress Reporting

    See project health at a glance — tasks completed vs outstanding, hours logged vs budgeted, and project profitability. Custom dashboards keep managers and clients aligned without manual reporting.


    Task-Level Collaboration

    Comments, file attachments, and @mentions directly on every task. Your team communicates in context — no more digging through email threads to find the latest update on a deliverable.


    Connected to CRM & Sales

    Convert a won opportunity in Odoo CRM into a project with one click. All client details, scope notes, and quoted deliverables carry across — no re-capturing between your sales and delivery teams.


    Mobile Access

    Log time, update task statuses, and collaborate with your team from the Odoo mobile app — in the office, on site, or working remotely anywhere in South Africa.

    Frequently asked questions

    Common questions from SA project teams

    Yes. Odoo Project supports three billing models — time and materials (invoice based on logged hours), fixed price (invoice when milestones are reached), and manual billing. When it's time to invoice, Odoo pulls all approved timesheet hours and generates the invoice automatically — no manual calculation or data transfer to a separate invoicing system.

    Yes. Odoo Project includes both kanban and Gantt timeline views. The Gantt view lets you set task durations, define dependencies, and visualise your project schedule on a timeline. Managers can drag tasks to reschedule them and see the impact on downstream dependencies in real time.

    Team members log time directly against specific tasks using a built-in timer or by entering hours manually. Timesheets can require manager approval before they're used for billing or payroll. All timesheet data is visible in real time on the project dashboard — showing hours spent vs hours budgeted for every task and project.

    Yes. Odoo Project includes a client portal where your customers can log in to see task status, download deliverables, review timesheets, and approve milestones. You control exactly what each client can see — keeping them informed without giving them access to your internal project data.

    When a deal is won in Odoo CRM, you can create a project directly from the opportunity with one click. All client information, scope notes, and quoted deliverables carry across automatically — eliminating the handover gap between your sales and project delivery teams.

    Yes. Timesheet data from Odoo Project feeds directly into Odoo HR. Leave requests are reflected in project capacity planning, and approved timesheet hours can flow into payroll calculations. This means your project delivery, HR management, and payroll all operate from the same data — with no manual reconciliation between systems.

    Yes. Odoo Project is designed for organisations running multiple projects simultaneously. You can view tasks and deadlines across all projects from a single dashboard, allocate team members across projects, track total hours per person across your entire portfolio, and see overall profitability for all active projects at once.

    Deliver every project on time and on budget.
