The app introduces KPI dashboard to manage company and personal targets. The tool helps to organize work as a set of periodical goals and to control those goals in any business or functional area.
Set KPI targets by periods
Scorecard is not just a dashboard, but it is the tool to set and control measurable and time-constrained targets. Both company and individual
Use any Odoo data to calculate KPIs
The app introduces a clear system to get any Odoo storable details: a count of records, a sum or an average of numeric fields, pure Python code
Drag and Drop interface for KPI formulas
Construct advanced formulas to calculate derivative KPIs. Complexity of each scorecard is totally up to you!
Managerial and self control
Share KPI targets with interested users to organize a transparent dashboard of goals: from global to very specific ones
Structured hierarchically and by categories
Consider only those KPIs which are of interest: for example, only sales-related or of a definite user. Hierarchy allows to highlight targets with indicative padding for instant overview of sub-KPIs
KPIs are auto and regularly updated
Actual values are re-calculated by the special Odoo cron job. It is always possible to understand which KPIs require more attention in real time at a first glance

Real-time control and historical trends
-
KPIs values are calculated for a specific period according to chosen date fields (e.g. quotations by 'order date')
-
Plan KPI periods of any duration: annual, quarterly, monthly, weekly, 10-days-long, etc. KPI periods might intersect and might be different for various business areas
-
By default KPI targets of a current period are shown for an instant overview
-
For each KPI target you may observe trends by other periods. Define also tolerance to picture graph (e.g 2-days tolerance - for quarterly periods - 90-92 days, 3-days - for months - 28-31 days)
-
Navigate between various KPI categories and KPI periods in a few clicks from the same Odoo dashboard
-
Export scorecard to an Excel table if you need
-
Copy or substitute KPI targets from other periods to simplify goals' setting
-
Close KPI periods as it is done for fiscal and accounting purposes. It not only holds the Past values, but let speed calculations up
-
KPI periods and KPI targets are set up for each company individually (multi companies' environment)


Drag-and-drop formulas for KPIs
-
KPI construction is as simple as it is to write down a mathematical expression: just drag and drop the parts in a right order with correct operators
-
Odoo would automatically retrieve data from a database according to a defined parts' order for a specified period
-
Formula might be as complex as you require. Merely make sure the operators (subtraction, addition, multiplication, division, exponentiation, brackets, any float number) comply with basic Math rules.
-
For each KPI configure prefix and suffix to make results nice looking
-
Define rounding rules from 0 to 4 decimal points (1 > 1.2 > 1.23 > 1.235 > 1.2346).
-
KPI variables indicate the rules of how to get data. For example, 'total number of sales orders' or 'number of quotations of sales team Europe'
-
Other KPIs - the parts used for derivative calculation. For example, 'Opportunity to sales success ratio' based on KPIs 'Sales count' and 'Opportunities count'
-
KPI constants - the parts which are frozen globally or for a specific time frame. Needed for figures which can't be retrieved from modules and/or which should remain the same during a period
-
'Period Days' is an interval length in days. 'Days Passed' is a length between period start and today (if today is before period end; otherwise period end). Those parameters let calculate per-time KPIs, such as, for example, 'Average sales per week'


Shared KPIs and self-control
-
Full rights for scorecards, all KPIs, targets, and settings belong to users with the right 'KPI Management - KPI manager'
-
Categories of KPIs and/or individual KPI targets might be shared for specific users or user groups
-
It is possible to both grant read-only or editor rights
-
Read-only access for a target let users only observe shared KPIs
-
The section 'Edit rights' on category or KPI forms would also allow to set and change targets. The latter might be useful in case you ask your manager to manage goals within a department, for example
-
The security settings are additive - not restrictive. KPI managers would have full rights for all KPIs disregarding the settings, while other users would have rights only to KPIs which settings (or category settings) allow them so
-
The tool supports multi companies: so, make sure user company correlates with a KPI dashboard company.


KPI settings to process Odoo data
Any storable data
-
Preparing basis for KPIs' calculation is not a simple task. The good news is that such job should be done only once, while results are used forever
-
KPI Settings assume 3 levels of precision: (1) basic measurements - (2) KPI variables and constants - (3) KPI drag and drop formulas
-
A basic measurement is the core object used for retrieving actual KPI value from Odoo database, while KPI variables specify those. For example, 'total number of sales orders' should be a basic measurement, while narrower 'number of quotations of the sales team Europe' is recommended to be a precision of that basic measurement
-
Each basic measurement might have an unlimited number of linked KPI variables. KPI formulas might combine any number of variables, constants, and other KPIs with mathematical operators.
Python code measurements
-
'Python code' is the special type of basic measurements. This type requires technical knowledge but let you compute any sort of figures based on any Odoo data without restrictions
-
Such measurement might be any Python basic script with possibility of SQL queries (through using 'env.cr')
-
In calculations you may rely upon the special variables: 'period_start' (the first date of the period), 'period_end' (the last date of the period), 'period_company_id' - res.company object for which Odoo makes calculations at the moment (according to a KPI period under consideration)
-
Correct Python code assumes saving the value into the special variable 'result'.
Basic measurements
-
Basic measurements are not used for formulas, but they define how Odoo data should be calculated: count of records, sum, average, pure Python code. Basic measurements assume a number of settings
-
Model - an Odoo document type with which data set you work ('Sales Order', 'Task', etc.). Here you can rely on standard or custom objects (including created in the Odoo studio), Odoo reports
-
Date fields - define whether a document relates to a KPI period. For example, for tasks you might use 'create date'. It is possible to apply a few date fields (e.g. 'Opportunities opened and won in January 2021') or no date fields at all for global calculations
-
Filters - allow restrict set of records. Used for low-level filtering and then specified in KPI variables
-
Measure field - is required for calculation types 'Average' and 'Sum'. It defines which figure you use for calculations. For example, 'total amount' of Sales Analysis Report or 'work hours of tasks'
-
Company field - would be used to restrict calculation for a KPI period target company. Take into account that records without company stated would be used for all companies' KPI calculations.
KPI variables and constants
-
The key idea to distinct KPI variables from basic measurements is to simplify data preparation. You define 'total sales' once, and then unlimitedly use it for 'sales Europe', 'sales John Brown', 'website sales', etc.
-
Specify basic measurements through the Odoo built-in domain constructor, which let filter by any storable attributes. For instance, filter sale orders by state (only 'done'), sales person ('John Brown or Mike Green'), sales team, etc.
-
KPI constants are the special type of KPI variables used when data can not be retrieved from modules and/or when figures remain the same during the whole period. For example, 'total investments' or 'number of employees' are often frozen for a specific period
-
In a multi company environment KPI variables are applied globally or for each company. In the former case that variable is available for any company KPI formulas, while in the latter - only for specific one
-
Basic measurements of the type 'Execute Python code' can't be any more specified, since they do not relate to any records. Such measurements should have a single KPI variable linked.



To change the frequency of KPI targets' recalculation:
- Turn on the debug mode
- Go to the menu KPI > Configuration > Settings
- Find the button 'Configure cron job'
- Feel free to update the settings 'Execute Every' and 'Next Execution Date'. However, please do not make it too frequent (e.g. once in 5 minutes). Since the job is resource demanding, it require at least a few minutes to be fully and correctly finished.
Change frequency of KPIs re-calculatinon

Basic Measurements are not used to create a formula by themselves. Even if you don't want to add any more filters to the Basic Measurement, you should still create a Variable linked to it. Then, this Variable will appear in the list of available ones for creating a formula.
The app itself does not introduce its own data (with exception of the KPI constants aiming exactly to apply missing data) or integrations. The app calculates and prepares interfaces based on existing Odoo data. For example, you can get the information about the number of sale orders for a particular period from the app Sales.
The module is universal and can get data from any Odoo module, including account balances. For example, you can calculate the total profit for a month based on the invoices (journal entry).
You can also get the data from a source outside of Odoo, through connecting it with an Odoo module. For example, if you have data from Google Analytics in your Odoo PostgreSQL, then such data might be used to prepare KPIs.
Measurement (Variable) - is a specification of a basic measurement. The key idea is to simplify data preparation. You define 'Total Sales' once, and then unlimitedly use it for 'Sales Europe', 'Sales John Brown', 'Website Sales', etc by adding extra filters.
According to the current Odoo Apps Store policies:
- Every module bought for version 12.0 and prior gives you access to all versions up to 12.0.
- Starting from version 13.0, every module version should be purchased separately.
- Disregarding the version, purchasing a tool grants you a right to all updates and bug fixes within a major version.
Please note that the faOtools team does not control those policies. For all questions, please contact the Odoo Apps Store representatives directly.
The most straightforward approach is to use the Odoo store's built-in workflow:
1. Open the module's page and click the button Deploy on odoo.sh
2. After that, you will be redirected to the GitHub page. Log in to your account and click 'Create a new repo' or use the existing one. Please make sure that your repository is private. It is not permitted to publish the apps under the OPL-1 license. If necessary, create a new repo for your Odoo.sh project
3. Then, go to odoo.sh and click the Deploy button. In the pop-up window, submit the decision and click 'Continue.' This action will trigger the installation process.
These steps will install the app for your project's production branch. If you want to deploy the apps for other branches or update the module, you should undertake the following actions:
1. Upload the source code for the app from the Odoo store
2. Commit the module to a required GitHub repository. Ensure that none of the app folders/files are ignored (included in the .gitignore of your repo). Repositories are automatically created by odoo.sh, which might add some crucial items there (e.g. /lib) by default. You should upload all module directories, subdirectories, and files without exceptions
3. Deploy a target branch of the odoo.sh project or, if your settings assume that, wait until it is automatically built.
2. Re-start the Odoo server;
3. Turn on developer mode (technical settings);
4. Update the apps' list (the apps' menu);
5. Find the app and push the button 'Activate'/'Install';
6. Follow the guidelines on the app's page if those exist.
Yes, sure. Simultaneously, Odoo automatically adds all dependencies to a cart, so you should exclude previously purchased tools to avoid double payment.
A red/orange warning does not influence the app's features. Regretfully, sometimes our modules do not pass standard automatic tests since the latter assume behavior that conflicts with our app's goals. For example, we change the price calculation, while the standard Odoo module tests compare the final price to a standard algorithm.
So, first of all, please check the deployed database features. Does everything work correctly?
If you still assume that the warning influences real features, please contact us and forward full installation logs and the full list of deployed modules (including core and third-party ones).
No, we only distribute the tools through the official Odoo apps store.
Regretfully, we do not have the technical means to provide individual prices.
No, third-party apps can not be used on Odoo Online. Unfortunately, Odoo SaaS blocks such a possibility.
Yes, our tool requires all modules marked in dependencies to work correctly. The price marked on the app page already includes all necessary dependencies.
The price for our modules is set in euros. The Odoo store converts prices to other currencies according to its internal exchange rate. Thus, the price in US Dollars may change when the exchange rate is updated.
