Odoo 12 release date is inching closer and all eyes are glued. The ERP Company has always strives to deliver users a better experience and higher returns. So, even this time, for its version 12 update, a lot is expected. And if the previous years are to go by, there is plenty to look forward to. Here are 12 new features we can’t wait for in Odoo 12 update.
1 Easy moderation for public and private discuss channels to enable much fluent, clear and secure discussions between teams, departments, and coordinators. A breather for all the administrators.
2. Smooth drag and drop feature in the chatter under the records. Simply drag and drop the attachments to the chatterbox. No more popping extra windows and uploading files tediously.
3. Easy uploading of product image through links. No more downloading the picture and uploading it on Odoo manually. It promises to save an awful lot of time for large online stores and e-commerce.
4. New payment acquirers will be introduced: Altpay and Alipay. This would provide business owners with higher flexibility in the payments end.
5. A brand new document management system that, Director at Odoo confirmed back in July, is under development. In his shared images, the interface looks quite clean and dynamic with easy access to different categories and options. We might see this DMS in the latest version.
6. Inbuilt reminder popups on a refined intuitive calendar whenever you’re in the system. This is quite handy and eliminates the need to use any third-party reminder app.
7 . Now use the Odoo apps much conveniently on mobile devices. Odoo v. 12 will make it so with a range of new additions like seamless filter panel, view switcher, swift screen management and much more.
8 .Quick and easy navigation with a new ‘Cohort View’. Sort through everything to find exactly what you’re looking for on an interactive interface.
9. Attractive Activity View.
10. “*Insert name* is typing”—this feature is finally coming to Odoo Livechat, Discuss Channels and Odoo IM. Perhaps not the most exciting one, but this feature could really help in boosting the response time when conversing with customers and prospects.
