🔎 Top 5 Business Scenarios Solved by Custom Odoo Apps

Each use case here is based on real business challenges where custom apps turned inefficiencies into competitive advantage.

Retail Inventory Automation

Challenge: A fast-growing retail chain was managing inventory via spreadsheets, leading to delays and stock-outs.

Solution: Odonity built a custom replenishment logic using Odoo’s Inventory module, integrating vendor lead times, warehouse zones, and barcode scans.

Impact: 35% fewer stock-outs and 2x faster restocking cycle.

MRP Variant Configuration

Challenge: A manufacturer required multiple product variants with different routing, costing, and labels.

Solution: We delivered a dynamic BOM builder app where variant-specific fields updated the production plan in real-time using Odoo Studio and custom Python logic.

Impact: Eliminated manual errors, reduced cycle time by 18%.

Custom HR Attendance Tracker

Challenge: A service company needed to track work hours across flexible locations and shifts.

Solution: Odonity developed a Geo Attendance app using Google Maps API integrated into Odoo, recording GPS-stamped check-ins via mobile.

Impact: Increased HR compliance and reduced absenteeism by 23%.

Real-Time Sales Dashboard

Challenge: Sales teams needed KPIs from multiple locations in real-time but struggled with exporting reports.

Solution: We created a custom dashboard widget inside Odoo CRM with filters, goals, and visual charts using Chart.js.

Impact: Improved decision-making and reduced reporting time by 80%.

Subscription & Recurring Billing Logic

Challenge: A SaaS-based firm using Odoo needed a tailored billing structure — with variable billing cycles and usage-based pricing.

Solution: We built a custom recurring billing engine integrated with Accounting and Invoicing modules with usage-tier triggers.

Impact: 100% automated billing and 0 manual reconciliations per month.
