1. Revolutionized PoS System: Efficiency at Your Fingertips 

Running a retail store or restaurant? Odoo 18’s Point of Sale (PoS) system has undergone a major upgrade. Now, you can quickly create new products directly from the PoS interface, enabling you to adjust your inventory on the go. Split payments, print gift receipts, and even allow your customers to pay using QR codes—all from one platform. 

What’s more, Odoo 18 introduces seamless integration with multiple delivery services, making it easier than ever to manage takeaway orders and deliveries. And for ultimate flexibility, you can now start a new order for takeaway without selecting a specific table. 

2. Website Enhancements: Features for eCommerce Success 

With Odoo 18, eCommerce businesses are in for a treat! The redesigned shop and product pages, along with a streamlined one-page checkout process, ensure a better shopping experience for customers. The click-and-collect flow is now more efficient, making inventory management for online sales smoother. 

But that’s not all. Odoo 18 introduces improved SEO tools, designed to boost your online store’s visibility. From real-time stock updates to enhanced product recommendations, your eCommerce site will operate like a well-oiled machine. 

Additionally, multiple channel integration allows you to sync sales across social media platforms, online stores, and even physical retail outlets—giving you a complete view of your sales performance across channels. 

3. Sales & CRM: Personalized and AI-Driven 

​

Odoo 18 brings powerful new tools for Sales and CRM. Through AI-driven content generation, you can now communicate more effectively with clients via SMS, WhatsApp, and email. You can even add personal touches to quotations, including custom headers, footers, and client testimonials—tailored to specific industries or client needs. 

The advanced quotation builder gives you the flexibility to integrate cost breakdowns via spreadsheets, allowing for more accurate forecasting and financial analysis. 

4. Accounting Excellence: Smart Tax and Financial Management 

The accounting suite in Odoo 18 is now smarter, faster, and more intuitive. The enhanced tax evaluation algorithm supports various jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with tax laws across regions. This allows businesses to calculate taxes with ease, reducing errors and ensuring accuracy. 

The new financial forecasting tools help businesses predict future sales, costs, and cash flows based on historical data—empowering you to make informed decisions. Additionally, the enhanced dashboard brings smoother onboarding and better invoicing features, all at your fingertips. 

5. HR: Empowering Employees and HR Teams 

Odoo 18 has redefined Payroll & HR management with a series of new features aimed at simplifying processes. The platform now includes smart hiring tools that automate applicant screening, resume matching, and much more, helping HR teams focus on strategic tasks. 

In addition, self-service options have expanded, allowing employees to manage their personal information, request leave, and even track their compensation—all in one place. The new features also include streamlined time-off management, enhanced attendance tracking, and a smoother onboarding process. 

6. Warehouse & Inventory: Lightning-Fast Management 

Managing inventory in Odoo 18 is more efficient than ever. With mobile camera scanning, specialized equipment is no longer required—just point your phone at the barcode, and you’re good to go. The platform supports multi-scan functionality, which makes managing cross-company serial numbers a breeze. 

Additionally, Odoo 18’s RFID scanning system allows you to process hundreds of products within seconds, as demonstrated by CEO Fabien Pinckaers at the Odoo Experience. The system is now smarter, offering intelligent suggestions for product putaway locations based on historical data.
