Summary


In this chapter, we examined the various Human Resource applications available in Odoo. We installed the base Employee Directory followed by applications that managed time and attendance, as well as leave requests. Finally, we installed an application that allowed us to manage the recruiting processes of new employees. We walked through completing an employment application, and finally, turning the potential applicant into an employee.

In the next chapter, we will look at the Project Management application in Odoo and how it can be used to improve service quality for customers. Project Management allows you to organize from the most simple projects, to complex projects involving multiple tasks. Furthermore, you can even track the time related to projects, and display project information in a variety of graphical formats to make it easier to track your deadlines.
