Flexible Timetables and Shifts v.14
The tool to plan, share and control shifts in a form of weekly time tables
This is the Odoo app to organize team work when employees have flexible timetables. The tool allows and forces users to plan shifts in advance. In such a way, peers know their colleagues working time, while HR managers control attendances.
Comfortable shifts planning
To prepare a timetable users should merely choose a period on a calendar and should define a working context. Just a few clicks to plan and share shifts!
Odoo weekly timetables
The app automatically combines shifts in weekly timetables from Monday to Sunday. Users may plan work using previous tables as templates. Press 'Create' and define for a which period to repeat shifts
Managerial control
The tool is interrelated with the Odoo attendances. HR managers not only know employees' plans, but also control their fulfillment. Open any timetable or export an Excel table to compare totals and how good real shifts correspond to scheduled ones
Working context (reasons)
For both attendances and planned shifts users may choose context. The list of available options is configurable: for example, introduce 'distant', 'office central', 'office west'. It let quickly understand where or why employees work
Team collaboration
The app allows employees to know shifts of their peers. In such a way, team members always know time and working contexts of each other
Timetable reminders
Configure Odoo to remind employees to plan shifts for the next week. Notify users of being late if they have not checked in but were previously planning to work.
Configuration and Installation Tips for Flexible Timetables and Shifts Odoo v.14
Contexts (reasons) for shifts and attendances
The app allows to configure an unlimited number of working contexts on the Odoo HR configuration page.
One of those contexts should be set as default. Then, it would be entered as the first choice for planned shifts and attendances.
When a user plans shifts, he/she would be asked to introduce a context.
It is possible to turn on context selection also when a user checks in Odoo. Otherwise, default context would be entered to attendances.
Timetable combines shifts and attendances by contexts. In case you have rarely used contexts, mark those as 'Do not show if empty' to avoid too many lines.
Notifications to plan shifts
Reminders to create timetables are sent for the next week. Configure days of the previous week when to notify employees on the configuration page.
Only employees with the flagged setting "Timetable Notifications" would receive reminders.
To change the reminder email, go to the Odoo technical settings > Email > Templates. Find there 'Timetable for the next week'. You are welcome to introduce any changes to subject or body and to update translations.
Change time of the reminder through the Odoo technical settings > Automation > Scheduled jobs > 'Notify employees to plan working time for the next week'.
Notifications of being late
Reminders of being late is sent if a user at this particular moment has a planned shift, but he/she has not checked in.
Only employees with the flagged setting "Being Late Notifications" would receive reminders.
To change the reminder email, go to the Odoo technical settings > Email > Templates. Find there 'Timetable: you are late'. You are welcome to introduce any changes to subject or body and to update translations.
Set up frequency of the reminder through the Odoo technical settings > Automation > Scheduled jobs > 'Notify employees of being late'. By default check is done once an hour.
