With improvements each year and after 15 successful versions, Odoo is set to release its 16th version in October 2022, the most advanced Odoo yet.

Odoo development is continuous and Odoo has introduced a wide range of new features and modules over the years. This year is also not different, Odoo is introducing some exciting new features and improvements as well as cleaning up the code for a smooth user experience.

The overall performance and user interface of Odoo have seen some significant modifications over the course of the last few editions. The entire system is expanding to a completely new level of complexity and performance with the release of version16.

Expected features of Odoo 16th version:

Here is an overview of the expected features in the latest version

Performance and efficiency

Performance is one of the most important elements that contribute to a company’s success and is the first consideration anytime we use or purchase any program. The focus of Odoo’s most recent version has been on enhancing its effectiveness and performance.

Once you start using version16, you’ll notice a considerable increase in speed. It is expected that the performance will improve by more than 3 times with the introduction of this version.

A better user experience

With its redesign of essential modules, Odoo16 will become a unique and essential piece of software for every firm. It is expected that the upcoming edition would offer improved product management for the sales team and workforce management for the HR team. To meet the new standards, the sign and marketing modules have undergone various adjustments.

Moreover, Odoo 16 will not have save/edit buttons. This merge removes the read-only mode of the form view and revamps the layout of this same view. The control panel is revamped to take less vertical space and shows now the record editing (dirtiness)/validity status after editing the record. Also, the record is saved only when leaving the view or by clicking the save button when hovering over the record status in the control panel.

Knowledge module

A special module that is integrated into Odoo 16 and completes its introduction is the knowledge module. Professionals and managers will be able to create documents and share their knowledge using the knowledge module, just like Wikipedia does.

With the knowledge module, the company will be more productive because employee and employer communication will be better. All of Odoo’s modules are compatible with this feature.

Accounting module

The accounting module is now considerably faster and more effective thanks to new tools and features that might be used in actual business situations. You can control the client’s credit limit more effectively through the accounting module’s credit limit feature.

With the accounting module, you can now completely digitize your invoices for simple management and accessibility.
The Accounting module has a widget for reconciliation that allows easy access to the bank reconciliation process. You can also access the widget from the Accounting module’s reconciliation section.

The currency exchange difference split on the invoice will disable the module and provide you more control over invoices when using the accounting module.

Marketing module

The Odoo version 16 email marketing module has been improved to enable the creation of new templates using existing email layouts. The mailing list’s global properties can also be easily changed. Your contacts’ mailing addresses are easily accessible.

Retweeting tweets is simple with this edition’s dashboard for social media and marketing. By doing this, you can develop an online presence for your company and administer its social media channels with ease.

Website module

These are some of the expected features you will see in the website module when choosing to upgrade from Odoo 15 to 16:

It is feasible to manage the front end and back end of a website from a single view.
You will have access to a wide range of tools to tailor the website however you like.
Every time you configure a website page, there is no need to refresh the page.
On the web pages, more grouping and filtering options will be added.

Inventory module

The updated version of Odoo can handle backorders automatically, avoiding future issues. You might find a better postcode filter on the shipping method that accepts “prefixes” rather than a “form to” on shipment. In this version, data can also be easily printed.

You can control how long in advance you wish to create a product/order replenishment. It is simple to scan a package, pick and count the number of products, and force scan a required or optional product.
