This planning will assist you in organizing the complete organization's techniques and operations. As a result, the company's resources are used to their full potential, and resource waste is minimized, resulting in total efficiency. Modern enterprises are constantly exposed to risk, but with proper planning and analysis, all hazards can be anticipated and management may take appropriate actions to avoid them. 

The efficient operation of the firm relies heavily on the coordination of several divisions. All departmental tasks can be coordinated with effective planning, making decision-making considerably easier.

Manually organizing and arranging employee shifts is inconvenient since it takes a long time and can result in inconsistencies in shift assignment. With the advancement of technology, you may now use planning anagement software to carry out your planning successfully and efficiently. Odoo , on the other hand, assists you in managing your firm in all aspects.

The Odoo Planning module must be installed from the Application. When you enter the Planning module, you'll be able to see all of your schedules in a calendar view on your dashboard. You may see your employees' shifts organized by their names, positions, and projects. This will assist you in evaluating different employees' work in progress, as well as their roles and projects. You can also use the planning section to add new shifts to the calendar and assign tasks to your employees. 

It is possible to view the current day's, week's, month's, and year's schedules. You can also duplicate the previous week's schedule. The Planning module makes it easier to send a schedule; all you have to do is click the SEND SCHEDULE button.

 The Odoo Planning module also allows you to view open shifts, which is a useful function. Shifts that are kept available to any employee are known as open shifts. If the employee who started the shift is unable to finish the task for any reason, another employee can take his or her place and finish the job. By selecting the My Planning option, you can also see your planned timetables. 

Your schedule is displayed in calendar format, and you can add new shifts or update existing shifts. By clicking the SEND SCHEDULE option, you can also send and publish your schedule. Aside from that, you also get reports and configuration options. 

Reporting 

This element of the Odoo Planning module allows you to assess the planning you've completed. The Reporting tab can be used to gain a detailed analysis of the plans. You can see them in a list, a pivot, a graph, or a Gantt chart. 

Planning Analysis 

To view the analysis, you can add different measures. Allocated Hours, Allocated Time Percentage, Effective Hours, Number of Working Days, Progress, and Count are some of the metrics used. 

With all of these indicators, you can readily assess the planning procedures that have been completed thus far.

Each employee's analysis in each department will be displayed. This will aid in evaluating the employee's performance and the time required to complete the duties. You can design future targets with the help of the analysis.
By selecting the INSERT IN SPREADSHEET button, you can save the examined data to a spreadsheet.
