What's New in Odoo 18.4?
The new version doesn’t just focus on flashy features. Odoo 18.4 brings practical enhancements that improve usability, streamline processes, and help your teams get more done in less time, all while keeping the user experience clean and intuitive.
Here are the top 5 new features that business owners, managers, and teams should be excited about:
1. Smarter Campaign Management
If your business relies on email or SMS marketing (and it should!), then this update is for you. Odoo 18.4 introduces a smoother and more intelligent way to plan and execute campaigns. You can now:
- Design, schedule, and automate email and SMS blasts
- Segment contacts more effectively
- Monitor campaign performance in real time
This makes it easier than ever to engage your audience, increase conversions, and build long-term customer relationships — all from one dashboard.
2. Streamlined Inventory Control
Managing inventory can be a headache, but not with Odoo’s upgraded Inventory module. Odoo 18.4 simplifies the process with:
- Enhanced barcode scanning capabilities
- Batch and lot number tracking
- Improved reordering rules to prevent stockouts or overstocking
These updates are especially beneficial for retail, e-commerce, distribution, and manufacturing businesses looking to fine-tune supply chain operations.
3. Upgraded HR & Payroll
Hiring, managing, and retaining employees is a lot of work, but Odoo is making it easier. The HR module now includes:
- Automated employee contracts and document handling
- More detailed employee profiles and role tracking
- Payroll enhancements for smoother salary calculations and tax rules
Whether you’re a small HR team or a large organization, this update means less paperwork and more people-focused support.
4. Simplified Financial Tools
Finance is the backbone of every business, and Odoo 18.4 ensures your accounting tools are more accessible than ever. The latest updates offer:
- Easier bank reconciliation
- Clearer audit trails
- Streamlined invoicing and billing processes
- Smoother user navigation for non-accountants
No need to juggle Excel files or external apps — now, everything is connected, automated, and presented in real-time.
5. Faster, Cleaner Interface
One of the best things about Odoo 18.4? It looks and feels better than ever. The updated UI (user interface) is:
- More responsive on both desktop and mobile
- Easier to navigate between modules
- Designed with productivity in mind
This means less time figuring out where things are, and more time actually doing the work.
