Businesses can list tasks that need to be completed or things they wish to do; Odoo, a dedicated business management solution, allows you to list those tasks and schedule them using the To-Do List App, simplifying business operations.
Business organizations worldwide operate predominantly in a pre-planned setting, with operations heavily reliant on plans and activities.
We may use the To-Do List app to schedule general activities and list actions from sales, purchases, inventory, and all other Odoo modules.
The features of the To-Do List app are as follows: arranging routine To-Do lists and carrying out each duty again. Give each task a priority based on the user, and activities can be filtered accordingly.
When the user enters the module, they are presented with a Kanban view based on the state of the scheduled activities. The states are classified as Today, Planned, and Expired based on the due date or deadline.
When an activity is completed, it is in the Done state; when it is canceled, it is in the Canceled status. In the Kanban view, you can also see who created the activity. Each action, activity type, priority level, and summary are displayed in the Kanban view.
The page displays various stages, including inbox, today, this week, this month, later, and personal stages.
As previously mentioned, the stage is in the Kanban view, visible in both the list and activity views. The list view will appear as seen in the image below.
The page’s Activity view will be as shown in the image below.
Now, when you search in the space in the center of the page, you will see an icon for a drop-down menu with filters and favorites options, as seen in the image below.
The Filters option includes sub-options such as open, closed, archived, and custom filters. Under the favorites menu, you will also find the option to save the current search.
The tags, assignees, stage, and custom group choices are available under the group by menu. And this is one remarkable advanced feature added in Odoo 17.
To create a new ToDo, click the New icon, which will take you to the creation page in the image below.
