Careline specializes in customized furnishings at scale while also supplying various businesses in the care sector with essential merchandise. Managing these two business lines brought significant complexity, requiring tailored enhancements to Odoo in key areas. To address these challenges, we developed a series of extensions that stay as close to the Odoo standard as possible while optimizing operations. Key highlights include: A product configurator for streamlined customization A project billing flow integrating Field Service, BT-ARBA, and cost centers The consolidation of six separate software solutions into a unified Odoo system Together with Careline’s CFO and PO, Philipp Noack, we’ll provide insights into the challenges and opportunities of implementing Odoo amidst ongoing operations. We’ll also showcase the most impactful enhancements that helped Careline scale efficiently—without losing sight of what matters most: delivering comfort and quality to those who need it.

Learn from Damian Bürgin, our project manager, how the SV Group successfully converted over 500 restaurants from SAP to Odoo. The presentation highlights the scope of the project - from implementation and change management to seamless data processing from POS to invoicing - as well as the new cash management system. Insights into efficient financial processes included!

In this talk, Michael Ptas, our project manager, presents the implementation of a self-service shop in Odoo v16 for a marketplace company that is not the owner of the goods sold. BT-Arba (automated, rule-based accounting) is used to overcome the challenges in accounting and stock management. Improvements to the POS system, such as visual and functional enhancements and semi-automated accounting functions, will also be discussed.

Dominik Rütti, our project manager, will show you in the presentation how our new module facilitates the automatic posting of transactions in Odoo. Percentages of each invoice item can be posted precisely to accounts independently of Odoo's analytical accounting - ideal for medium-sized companies for cost planning. Use cases, customised setups and a live demo of the module functions will also be presented.

Unser Projektleiter und Consultant, Patrick Mayer, gibt Einblicke in die Nutzung von Odoo für Outlets mit individuellen Produkten. Im Fokus steht die Implementierung von Odoo für ein Möbel-Outlet, das Produkte zweiter Wahl verkauft. Die Lösung von braintec beinhaltete die nahtlose Integration von Preislisten, Seriennummern, Inventar und POS. Weiter geht es um die Herausforderung wie Produktmängel präsentiert und individuelle Preise auf Basis des Zustands festgelegt werden.

Helmut Stritzinger, Projektleiter und Consultant bei braintec, stellt Strategien für die Lagerbewirtschaftung und Digitalisierung in Odoo vor. Er beleuchtet das Wellen- und Chargenpicking inkl. Cluster, von der Anpassung von Routen und Regeln an spezifische Anforderungen, über die effiziente Lagerstruktur bis hin zur Reduzierung von Zeiten und Fehlerquoten im Kommissionierungsprozess.

Unser Projektleiter und Consultant, Andreas Stauder, gibt zusammen mit der SV Group Einblick in die Erfolgsgeschichte des führenden Gastronomiebetriebs. Vom Einkauf über die Lagerung bis hin zur Zubereitung von Gerichten und der Bewirtung der Gäste wurde mit Odoo ERP ein exzellentes Nutzerlebnis für alle Beteiligten geschaffen.

Brain-tec developed an extension to the Helpdesk app to make the balanced ticket assignation more intelligent. It adds skills of the user and its attendance state as conditions relevant for assigning tickets. The module also provides the possibility to add a maximum number of tickets a user can be assigned.

The talk might be interesting for after-sales organizations that manage many agents (users) and customers (tickets).

Landi is one of the big retailers in Switzerland, organized in many local co-ops spread all over the country. Engrained in their DNA, is the close ties to their local customers, often from rural communities. Being founded by local farmers, this also manifests in their approach to eCommerce: When customers order, goods can be collected at the local store or delivered to their homes - but in any case, the order is always prepared in the local store, never in any central warehouse far away.

This created a solution that is very widespread and distributed in nature. A webshop that integrated with their existing website on one side and many interfacing systems for the fulfillment on the other hand - and all integrated with an existing IT landscape with master data coming together from different places - needed to be connected.

Here Odoo got the role as the cornerstone of the architecture. Every piece of information is routed through Odoo, which is the single source of truth for everything eCommerce.
Specifically, master data from different systems need to be handled and forwarded, every order is automated in Odoo and every step of the process is tracked in detail until the order is collected or delivered using one of the different delivery services and types. All customer communication through email, text, or push messages is centrally done through Odoo. Additionally, the Helpdesk app is used to handle all exceptions and customer inquiries centrally. Of course, the customer invoices and vendor bills are also automated and managed in Odoo.

For Landi, Odoo now does all the heavy lifting in the core of their eCommerce architecture that offers the 360° view of the operations as well as keeps the door open for dynamic and flexible development in the future.

This talk will give an overview of the architecture and deep dive into some remarkable details of the implementation that will be valuable to anyone thinking about using Odoo in an environment of existing other systems that need to be integrated.

Odoo provides excellent tools to manage all your business cases within some clicks. Over the years, great features have been implemented, and the processes are getting better and more business related. This talk will show you how you can use Odoo as a time management and attendance system with great benefits for your employees and the management based on real customer experience.

We have implemented some additional features to achieve better 360-degree management of the employees' work/attendance/leave time. We ensured that employees had a transparent overview of their work and leave time within one click.

Additionally, we integrated even more features:
- define for each work location public holidays (within the same company)
- define employee break times, which can be recorded
- start and end time for timesheet entries
- overview of current time balance within one click, where time off is included in the overview
- annually cutoff and possibility to close/book end-of-year balances
- and much more!

Managers, consultants, and Odooers looking for a smart timesheet suite will get some insights and ideas on using Odoo as an extended time and attendance management system within any organization.

We can consider a document "audit-proof" if its content cannot be lost or modified once it is created.

Some countries, such as Germany [1], have rules which require some documents to be tracked in order to ensure, among others requirements, that they have not been modified.

We have developed a module which adds this functionality to Odoo.
- It gives a quick overview of the status of the files.
- It allows to select the models whose files will be audited by the company.
- It contain reports with information of the integrity of the files.

Key learnings:
We will introduce a module which implements audit-proof in Odoo, including examples, in order to show its potential.

Value to the audience:
You will learn what our module can do in order to use it in your Odoo (or to offer it to your customers in case of an Odoo partner) and forget about this topic.

Target audience:
Any people whose project is based on countries that require to audit the files in order to guarantee they follow the standards.

Do you know how complicated payroll computations are?

Get your Payroll computed with a few clicks! Transmit all regulatory documents with another few clicks!

In this talk, you will learn how we extended Odoo to comply with regulatory requirements of insurances and state institutions in Switzerland.

Users will learn how easily you can handle your Swiss Payroll integrated within your other Odoo processes (e.g. time sheets); how your human resources (HR) department can handle your employees’ needs in time, and how the payroll is done in seconds.

Partners will learn how implementing complicated rules and regulations means an enormous investment to an app developer. We will tell you how brain-tec AG took that obstacle and reached official certification by Swissdec. By changing our pricing model we offer all Partners the opportunity to take part in the success of our module without having to make the tremendous investment we did.

Happy to see you there!

Are you a trading company in need of offering volume pricing / scale pricing to your customers? Would you like to provide your customers with special prices if their orders amount to a specific quantity / volume? If the answer is yes, then this is your talk!

Standard Odoo pricelists allow you to define different sales prices for one product depending on the quantity you sell of that product. However, sometimes the price of a product does not depend on the quantity you sell of that product, but on the global quantity you sell in a whole sales order. Such a case is not covered by standard Odoo pricelists and that is why you need a specific Volume Pricing / Scale Pricing App.

Example of volume pricing / scale pricing:
- If your order contains 1-100 units of products A & B, the price of A is 10€ and the price of B is 15€.
- If your order contains 101-300 units of products A & B, the price of A is 9.50€ and the price of B is 14.50€.
- If your order contains more than 300 units of products A & B, the price of A is 9.00€ and the price of B is 14.00€.

Therefore, if your order contains 60 units of product A and 250 units of Product B, in total the order contains 310 units and thus, the prices applied are 9.00€ and 14.00€ respectively.

What does our app offer? It allows you to create scale pricing lists, which allows you to define the specific scale prices that a given customer has for a given set of products, defining for each product a specific validity period.


Key learnings:
- What is volume pricing / scale pricing?
- Limitations of standard pricelists
- Scale pricing app


Value to the audience:
- Managing volume pricing / scale pricing in any Odoo flavour (Community and Enterprise).


Target audience:
- Trading companies
- Companies wanting to boost their sales by offering scale prices
- Companies with complex pricing schemes

The current budgeting tool offered in Odoo Enterprise is rather limited and it is not integrated with financial reports such as Profit & Loss. Furthermore, the task of forecasting based on a budget or a previous forecast is not something enabled in a standard Odoo solution. For these reasons, brain-tec group decided to develop the "Financial Plans" app. This talk will cover the functions and capabilities of this app and is targeted to finance advisors and account managers.

Many companies buy products in one unit of measure, for example in kg. Then processes them internally and sells the product again but with a different unit of measure e.g. in packs of 15 kg. For that reason, the braintec-group has developed a sub-module to easily let users set different unit measures for the different parts of the trade process.

This talk shows the path of the products in a trading environment and how they can change from when they’re purchased to when they are sold. This presentation is targeted to users who want to customize Odoo to have a second unit of measurement in different parts of the purchase-sale process.

During the talk, the standalone sub-module features will be explained. Then some examples of real situations will be shown demonstrating how the sub-module has been customized to different clients' needs.

As Odoo continues to become a powerful ERP, we’re faced with many customer requests to include Odoo in their Supply Chains using EDI*. In this talk we will give a brief overview how the EDI flow works in general based on message types.

We will demonstrate a use case and how the system is implemented including proper error handling. The target audience for this talk is all companies using Odoo and have the need to implement complex supply chains with multiple parties, following industrial standards.

The value to the audience is given in an overview of how processes can be handled and automated, as well as discussing technical and functional questions, as the head developer will lead the technical part of the presentation. The structure of the talk will be a quick presentation followed by a live demo.

*EDI is a quite vague word for a connection between many parties, so we need to specify that we focused on the GS1 XML 3.4 Standard.

An easy way to integrate Odoo in a landscape with peripheral systems that provide ODBC interfacing. It's a smart approach to introduce Odoo in a complex system architecture that cannot be replaced totally by Odoo in a first step. Target Audience audience are Consultants and developers who are interested in connecting Odoo with other systems via Open Database Connectivity (ODBC).

Odoo offers from the core an LDAP integration. This integration is very helpful in LDAP based environments to manage users in a central place. Our App extends the functionality with clean group integrations so that LDAP OU’s can match user groups in Odoo and the group participation can be managed centrally. All transactions are logged "in a clean way" and users can be deactivated as well inside LDAP.

Watch this talk to find out how to manage user roles in bigger IT environments and see a real use case (500 Employees and a very frequent change of users). Target audience: End Users / Administrators / Integration Partners (no technical background needed).
