Odoo Planning

Shift planning for staff and resources, with templates, open shifts, and publication to employees.

What it handles

  • Shift templates and recurring schedules
  • Open shifts employees can take
  • Role-based assignment and conflict detection

Worth knowing before you commit

An employee's working hours and allocated time drive what Planning will schedule, so the employee records have to be accurate before the shift plan means anything.

Dispatching shifts by role needs the Sales app installed for the Services field to appear.

In Canada

Planning for a Canadian business

Shift scheduling sits on top of provincial employment standards for hours, rest periods and overtime, and those differ by province. Odoo schedules what you configure; the entitlements behind the configuration are yours to get right.
