Gantt planning for project tasks
Project Scheduling
Use Gantt charts to plan, allocate resources, and determine the time to do each task based on scheduled hours, and the start and end dates. Built on Viindoo Web Gantt with project-task fields, dependency awareness, and calendar-aware planning.
Core capabilities
Opens a dedicated Gantt experience on project tasks with planned start and end dates, progress, assignees, stages, and dependency links aligned to how your projects already run in Odoo.
Gantt on tasks
Schedule tasks and assign resources using the Gantt chart directly from Project, with drag-friendly updates tied to planned dates and progress.
Planned end from hours
Automatic planned end date calculation from planned start and planned hours, respecting the resource working schedule where applicable.
Dependencies
Uses task dependency fields so predecessor and successor chains stay visible on the chart and in list or form views.
Critical path insight
Critical Path Method support to highlight the longest dependent stretch and the time required to complete it end to end.
Benefits
Project managers keep schedules, assignments, and dependencies on the same Odoo tasks the team already updates, instead of copying plans into external Gantt tools.
Aligned with timesheets
Planned hours and allocation context stay connected to the task record your team logs time against.
Clearer executive view
Bars and dependencies communicate slip risk faster than grid-only task lists for sponsors and PMO.
Faster replanning
Move dates on the Gantt and keep task state, stages, and assignees coherent without exporting to a spreadsheet.
Same stack as Web Gantt
Inherits the Viindoo Web Gantt behaviors your users may already know from other apps: PDF export, zoom levels, and stage coloring patterns.
Project Scheduling overview
planned_date_start and planned_date_end on tasks with progress, depend_on_ids, manager and members, subtasks, and stage-driven coloring on the chart.
Plan projects where your tasks live
Drag, resize, and follow dependencies on project tasks without leaving Odoo.
Pre-sales
Share your Odoo edition, Project app version, and whether you already use Web Gantt. Describe expected scheduling rules (dependencies, working calendars, CPM) and attach a screenshot if helpful.
sales@viindoo.comSupport
Include order reference, steps to reproduce, project task example, expected versus actual planned dates, and browser console output if the Gantt fails to load.
apps.support@viindoo.comTechnical requirement
- Odoo 17 with Project (
project) and Timesheets (hr_timesheet). - Requires Viindoo Web Gantt (
viin_web_gantt) for the Gantt renderer and assets. - Supported on Odoo Community Edition and Enterprise Edition.
- Auto-installs when dependencies are present; uninstall behavior may be customized via the module hook.
Changes log
- v0.1.3 - Maintenance and compatibility updates for Odoo 17 project tasks and Gantt integration.
- v0.1.0 - Initial Project Scheduling bridge with task Gantt view, planned dates, dependency-aware scheduling, resource allocation context, and Critical Path support.
Who should use this module?
Balance workloads, move milestones, and read dependency risk on a timeline tied to real tasks.
Compare schedules across projects, explain delays with visual chains, and align plans with timesheet reality.
Give customers a turnkey Gantt on standard project.task records without custom JavaScript projects.
