    This seems a variation that comes up every year or so. This should be your starting point, and probably ending point IMO. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vR9VGsSQUnITdnQq5KRiWnY7o-yERCB8YfnqxzhFW5tFcJ8AzMmIQ1CpLTdEgy5Sz9nx-yQlC0BhyGR/pub?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000&slide=id.p

    Great progress, Manish!

    You already have my full support and my contact details.

    As we’ve discussed, focus on specific industries where workflows play a crucial role. 
    Keep in mind that workflow solutions are typically more suited to larger enterprises rather than smaller ones.

    I’m looking forward to collaborating with you and seeing how we, as the OCA, can contribute to creating the BPM.
    Stay in touch, and please keep us — and me — updated.

    Hi Joel,

     

    Thank you for your prompt interest. While we have not yet created a charter document, we are in the process of developing one. I would like to outline the key advantages of building BPM processes on Odoo.

     

    1. Enhanced Process Customization

    While Odoo provides excellent built-in workflows for various business functions, BPM solutions allow for greater flexibility to design, optimize, and adapt custom workflows that align perfectly with an organization’s unique needs. having a BPM Solution could eliminate the need of greater customization.

    2. Cross-Departmental Integration

    Odoo focuses on specific modules (e.g., CRM, Inventory, HR), but BPM solutions can manage end-to-end workflows across multiple departments, ensuring seamless coordination between systems and teams.

    3. Process Automation Beyond Standard Odoo Workflows

    Odoo is excellent for managing standard workflows, but BPM adds layers of automation for complex, multi-step processes that might involve decision-making, approvals, or external integrations.

    4. Visual Process Mapping

    BPM tools often come with drag-and-drop visual designers to model processes intuitively. This visual mapping makes workflows easier to understand, modify, and manage compared to Odoo's backend workflows.

    5. Dynamic Workflow Adjustments

    Odoo workflows may require coding or module adjustments for changes. BPM tools enable real-time updates to processes without heavy technical intervention, saving time and effort during process optimization.

    6. Advanced Reporting and Analytics

    BPM systems provide detailed insights into workflow performance, bottlenecks, and inefficiencies, helping organizations make data-driven decisions. While Odoo offers reports, BPM tools often provide deeper analytics tailored to process optimization.

    7. Improved Compliance Management

    BPM tools are specifically designed to ensure processes comply with industry standards and regulations, enabling better tracking, auditing, and adherence to legal requirements.

    8. Scalability for Complex Organizations

    As businesses grow, their processes become more complex. BPM solutions offer scalability to manage workflows that involve multiple systems, geographies, or external partners, which may be beyond Odoo’s standard capabilities.

    employees can design and modify workflows on their own without IT dependency, fostering innovation and improving overall efficiency.

     

    Key Use Cases for BPM Over Odoo

    • Custom approval workflows that span multiple departments.

    • Automating regulatory compliance processes.

    • Advanced task prioritization and resource allocation.

    • Visualizing bottlenecks and optimizing operational workflows.

    • Rapid adaptation to business changes without disrupting operations.

     

    Conclusion

    While Odoo is a powerful ERP with robust standard workflows, a BPM solution complements it by adding agility, customization, and efficiency, particularly for businesses with unique or highly complex processes. Tools can bridge the gap by empowering organizations to create, manage, and optimize workflows seamlessly.

     

     

     

    Best Regards,

    Manish Mannan
