What this skill does
Odoo Project & Timesheet Overview This skill helps you configure Odoo Project and Timesheets for service businesses, agencies, and consulting firms. It covers project setup with budgets, task stage management, employee timesheet logging, approval workflows, and converting approved timesheet hours to customer invoices. When to Use This Skill Setting up a new project with tasks, deadlines, and team assignments. Configuring billable vs. non-billable time tracking per project. Creating a timesheet approval workflow for managers. Invoicing customers based on logged hours (Time & Materials billing). How It Works 1. Activate: Mention @odoo-project-timesheet and describe your project or billing scenario. 2. Configure: Receive step-by-step setup instructions. 3. Automate: Get guidance on automatically generating invoices from approved timesheets. Examples Example 1: Create a Billable Project Example 2: Log Time on a Task Example 3: Enable Timesheet Approval Before Invoicing Example 4: Invoice from Timesheets Best Practices ✅ Do: Enable Timesheet Approval so only manager-approved hours appear on customer invoices. ✅ Do: Set a budget alert at 80% of planned hours so PMs can intervene before overruns. ✅ Do: Require timesheet descriptions — vague entries like "Work done" on invoices destroy client trust. ✅ Do: Use Subtasks to break work into granular pieces while keeping the parent task on the Kanban board. ❌ Don't: Mix billable and internal projects without tagging — it corrupts profitability and utilization reports. ❌ Don't: Log time on the Project itself (without a Task) — it cannot be reported at the task level. Limitations Timesheet Approval is an Enterprise-only feature in some Odoo versions — verify your plan includes it. Does not cover Project Forecast (resource capacity planning) — that requires the Enterprise Forecast app. …
