Abstract

In an era when digitization is on the rise, Vietnamese businesses are rapidly adopting technology to centralize business processes, support in system optimization, lessen time to solve problems, and scale up operations. The referred technology, or a software solution to be more specific, is called ERP (Enterprise resource planning). Among the top international ERP solution providers, Odoo has consistently become the standard software suite for many companies in Vietnam owing to its great adaptability, optimal interface, and inexpensive implementation and recurring costs. ERPViet is a prestigious Odoo solution supplier in Vietnam, not only do they provide implementation support, but they also develop several bespoke features like Overtime Management to meet the special requirements of Vietnamese firms. The goal of this paper is to decode how a new app such as Overtime Management is created by looking at the architecture, module structure, and the method to construct and install a new customized module on Odoo. The detailed procedure can be found in our Github repository.
