+How Projects and Tasks Are Automatically Managed for Your Products in Odoo 📊🛠️
In Odoo, certain service products are designed to trigger automatic project or task management workflows upon sale. This can be incredibly useful for managing time-tracked services like carpentry work, custom-built furniture, or consultancy tasks.
What Happens When You Sell These Products? 🔧
When a product is sold, Odoo can automatically create a project or assign tasks to a global project. Here’s what each product does:
1. Wood Frame and Custom Table – Projects Based on Templates 📋
These products are linked to a specific project template. When sold, Odoo will:
- Automatically create a new project.
- The new project will be based on the predefined project template, ensuring consistency in tasks and project structure.
- You can track time through timesheets and invoice the client based on project completion or milestones.
2. Custom Desk – Tasks in a Global Project 🗂️
Unlike the Wood Frame and Custom Table, the Custom Desk creates tasks within a pre-existing global project. Here’s how it works:
- When sold, Odoo will create a new task inside the designated global project.
- This task can be tracked through timesheets, allowing you to bill the client for the time spent on each individual task.
- Invoicing is done based on delivery, meaning you charge when the task or service is completed.
How to Use This in Your Business 🚀
By selling these services, you’re not just creating revenue but also organizing your work. Odoo handles the back-end project creation and task assignment, saving you time and ensuring each service is tracked effectively.
Benefits of This Setup 💡
- Automation: Automatically create projects or tasks when products are sold.
- Consistency: Use templates to ensure your projects follow a standardized structure.
- Time Tracking: Easily track the time spent on each project or task through timesheets.
- Seamless Invoicing: Bill your clients based on delivery or time spent.
Wrap-Up 🎉
Odoo’s project and task tracking integration with products allow you to streamline your service-based sales. Whether you're building custom furniture or offering consultancy services, these features ensure efficient project management from the moment a sale is made!

+Quotation Template Magic: Simplified Roof Project Estimation 🏠✨
Odoo takes the hassle out of creating quotations for complex projects, like roofing, by allowing you to customize and calculate material needs directly from a quotation template. Here's how you can make the most of it:
1. Automatic Calculations Based on Roof Size 📐🔨
In the quotation template, you can set up a dynamic system where the customer’s roof size determines the amount of materials needed. The template calculates:
- The exact quantity of materials required based on roof dimensions (tiles, beams, insulation, etc.).
- You can also input your desired margin on these materials directly within the quotation, ensuring that your costs are covered and profits are built in automatically.
- This flexibility allows you to create as many variations or amounts as needed for different customers and roof sizes.
2. Simplified Quotations – Hide Detailed Lines 📝👀
If you want to present a cleaner, more summarized quotation to your customers, Odoo has the perfect solution. By clicking on Simplified Quotation in the quotation template, you can:
- Hide all the sales order (SO) lines for a more streamlined look.
- If sections are included, they will summarize the hidden SO lines under each section for clarity.
- If no SO lines are present, the section will default to displaying the project name specified for the quotation, giving your customer a clear overview.
Why Use These Features? 🌟
- Efficiency: Automatic material calculations based on size save time and reduce errors.
- Flexibility: You can adjust margins easily and create custom quotations for different project sizes.
- Presentation: Choose between a detailed or simplified quotation view to match your customer’s preferences.
Wrap-Up 🚀
With Odoo’s powerful quotation template features, you can offer your customers a tailored, professional, and clear quotation experience. Whether you're calculating materials for a roofing project or simplifying your sales orders, these tools are designed to make your business run smoother and more efficiently.
