Tabellenkalkulation

With Odoo Spreadsheet, you can:

The Spreadsheet module is part of Odoo Documents.

Bemerkung

Odoo spreadsheets serve as the foundation for the dashboards available in Odoo Dashboards. On a dashboard, charts and data tables are used to display dynamic Odoo data and provide an overview of key business metrics.

Standard, pre-configured dashboards can be customized by editing the dashboard’s underlying spreadsheet via Dashboards. Custom dashboards can also be created from scratch, starting from an Odoo spreadsheet; any subsequent modifications are performed via Dashboards.

Create a new spreadsheet

To create a new spreadsheet:

  1. Open Odoo Documents and navigate to the section or folder in which the spreadsheet should be created.

  2. Click New and select Spreadsheet.

    Tipp

    Alternatively, from the All folder, click New and select Spreadsheet, then select in which Workspace (i.e., folder) the spreadsheet should be created. If file centralization has been enabled for spreadsheets, you will also have the option to save the new spreadsheet in the Spreadsheet folder.

  3. Click Blank spreadsheet or, to create a new spreadsheet using an existing template, select the relevant template.

  4. Click Create.

  5. Click on Untitled spreadsheet at the top of the screen to edit the name of the spreadsheet.

Tipp

It is also possible to create a new spreadsheet by:

In these cases, the new spreadsheet is saved in Odoo Documents in the My Drive personal folder or, if file centralization has been enabled for spreadsheets, in the Spreadsheet folder.

Upload files

Spreadsheets in .xlsx format can be uploaded into Odoo Documents and opened as an Odoo spreadsheet. To do so:

  1. Open Odoo Documents and navigate to the section or folder where the spreadsheet should be saved.

  2. Click New and select Upload.

  3. Select the relevant .xlsx file and click Open.

  4. Click on the uploaded file.

  5. By default, the original .xlsx file is deleted when it is opened as an Odoo Spreadsheet. To preserve the original file in the same folder in Odoo Spreadsheet, disable Send source file to trash.

  6. Click Open with Odoo Spreadsheet.

The file is now an Odoo spreadsheet and can be fully edited in Odoo Spreadsheet.

Manage spreadsheets

Users with Editor rights to a specific spreadsheet have various options for managing the spreadsheet via the File menu:

  • Make a copy: creates a duplicate of the current spreadsheet with the same regional settings (or locale).

  • Save as template: allows the current spreadsheet to be used as a template for future spreadsheets.

  • Download: downloads the spreadsheet in .xlsx format.

    Wichtig

    When you download a spreadsheet in .xlsx format, any spreadsheet formulas that retrieve Odoo data from your database, e.g., via an inserted list or via other Odoo-specific functions, are converted to the values they would have returned at the moment the spreadsheet was downloaded.

    Tipp

    Users with Viewer rights can also download a spreadsheet in .xlsx format.

  • See version history: provides read-only access to previous versions of the current spreadsheet, which can be named and restored if needed.

  • Print: prints a copy of the spreadsheet on a connected printer.

  • Settings: allows you to view and change the locale of the current spreadsheet.

  • Add to dashboard: allows you to turn the current spreadsheet into a new dashboard that is accessible via Odoo Dashboards. The following fields must be completed: Dashboard Name, the Dashboard Section in which the new dashboard will be saved, and Access Groups to determine which user groups can access the dashboard.

    Bemerkung

    When a spreadsheet is converted into a dashboard, the original spreadsheet is deleted from Odoo Spreadsheet. However, it is still possible to edit the dashboards’s underlying spreadsheet via Odoo Dashboards.

Versionshistorie

Odoo Spreadsheet automatically saves versions of spreadsheets as changes are made, allowing users with Editor rights to browse and restore previous versions.

To access the version history of a spreadsheet, click File ‣ See version history from the menu bar. Saved versions appear in a panel on the right of the spreadsheet. The name of the user who made the change is shown, as well as the date and time of the change.

The following actions are possible:

  • View an earlier version in read-only format by clicking on the relevant version.

  • Restore an earlier version by clicking (vertical ellipsis) then Restore this version.

  • Copy an earlier version by clicking (vertical ellipsis) then Make a copy. A copy of the version opens as a new spreadsheet.

  • Create named versions by clicking on the date and time of the relevant version and entering the desired name. The date and time of the version are then displayed below the new name.

Tipp

When viewing an earlier, read-only version of a spreadsheet, the following actions are still possible:

  • Search the spreadsheet by clicking Edit ‣ Find and replace or using the shortcut Ctrl + H.

  • Copy an individual cell or selected area by clicking Edit ‣ Copy or using the shortcut Ctrl + C.

Regional settings

To ensure data is displayed consistently for all users, the regional settings (or locale) of a spreadsheet, are managed at spreadsheet level. This locale affects the following settings and formats:

  • thousand and decimal separators

  • date and time formats

  • first day of the week

By default, a new spreadsheet inherits the regional settings of the user who created it. For example, any spreadsheets created by a user whose language is set to French (BE) / Français (BE) will follow Belgian French conventions.

A spreadsheet’s locale can be viewed and changed at any time by a user with Editor rights. To view the locale of a spreadsheet, click File ‣ Settings from the menu bar. The Spreadsheet settings panel opens on the right of the spreadsheet. To change the locale, select the appropriate locale from the dropdown.

Tipp

When you open a spreadsheet that has a different locale to that of your user profile, a blue (globe) icon appears at the top right of the spreadsheet. Hovering over the icon reveals a warning message that indicates the spreadsheet locale and highlights formats that differ.

Warning about difference between user and spreadsheet locale

If no (globe) icon is shown, this means the spreadsheet’s locale is the same as that of your user profile.
