Odoo is designed to support businesses globally, and Odoo 18 enhances localization further! It brings stronger multi-currency support, more granular tax configuration, compliance templates, and simplified setup, making your ERP truly meet your region’s needs.

While core accounting localization comes from modular packages (“l10n modules” that install automatically based on company country), Odoo Studio empowers you to customize reports and views for local regulations by inserting useful regional data directly into your templates.

Enhance Picking Operation Reports

By default, picking/delivery reports show completed transfers, but often miss these details: Ordered Quantity, Reserved Quantity, Delivered Quantity

With Odoo 18 Studio, you can add these fields directly into the report layout, ensuring clarity during audits or compliance checks.

Customize Salary Payslips

Payslips in many countries require details like: Department, Manager, Work Permit Number, Visa Number

You can use Studio to:

• Add new fields to the Contract Form (under structure like allowances and deductions).
• Pull these fields into the payslip report.
• Generate full payslips that comply with local labor rules.

Why This Improves Localization

With Studio, you can:

• Attach region-specific data to your reports
• Meet detailed local compliance without custom coding
• Provide audits with richer documentation
• Support multi-company and multilingual setups out of the box
• These enhancements support rounds of better data-driven decisions and operational visibility.
