Hello OdooVerse!

It’s me, Emilio, reporting from world V18.0! 🚀

My company is growing like a perfectly indexed database, and I’m hiring more talent every week.

  • My developers now enjoy full flexibility — they can work at any hour, any day, as long as they don’t go over 40 hours a week. Night owls and early birds, welcome.
  • My data analysts also have flexible hours, but we aim for an average of 8 hours a day, mainly so they can keep up with the team’s pace and support our fast-moving projects. It's more about rhythm than rules. 🎵

Now, Odoo wizards and workflow masters…

Is there a way to handle this kind of setup in Odoo?

Thanks in advance!

 Hey Emilio!

Here I am, ready to help (as always 😎).

Also… gotta say, I absolutely love that we’re having this whole conversation with ourselves. Peak efficiency. One account, infinite wisdom. 😂

So, about your question — the good news is: it’s super easy now, because in V18.0 we’ve got a shiny new feature called Flexible Schedules! ✨

To handle your developers’ situation:

  1. Head over to Employees > Configuration and activate “Flexible Hours.”
  2. Set Hours per Week to 40:00 — this will act as the weekly target/limit.
  3. Then, in "Average Hours per Day", don’t set 8 — set it to 24.

Don’t panic — you’re not asking them to work 24 hours a day! 😅

It just tells Odoo: “They can work as many hours as they want per day, as long as they don’t go over 40 hours per week.”

To handle your Data Analysts’ situation:

Same idea — go to Employees > Configuration, make sure “Flexible Hours” is activated.

Set the Hours per Week to 40:00, but this time, set “Average Hours per Day” to 8.

And that’s it! 🎯

They can work whenever they want during the day, but Odoo will still aim for that 8-hour daily rhythm you’re looking for

Let me know if you have more questions! 

Best,
