Odoo Project Management FAQ

Does Odoo support Kanban-style project management?

Yes. Odoo's Project app runs projects on a Kanban board, covering project creation with name, manager, dates, and allocated hours, plus visibility settings for internal versus external users and portal sharing for client collaboration.

Can Odoo track billable hours against projects?

Yes. Odoo's Timesheets app logs working hours across projects via timer, manual entry, or task integration, with grid views and direct integration into Project and Helpdesk for billing project or support work.

Does Odoo support task dependencies in project management?

Yes. Odoo's Task management organizes project work through stages and statuses, task creation, recurring tasks, sub-tasks, and dependencies between tasks, giving basic sequencing without a full critical-path scheduling engine.

Is Odoo's project management suitable for complex, multi-team programs?

Odoo's project management is rated moderate — Kanban boards, task dependencies, and timesheets cover straightforward project tracking well, but organizations running complex, resource-constrained programs typically need more advanced resource leveling than Odoo provides natively.
