Lunch Management
There is no denying that a company's success is greatly
influenced by its workforce. For the business to achieve its
pinnacle, their efforts must be very significant. Thus, a
healthy environment is essential for them. They need to have
engaging and healthful leisure time to keep their minds calm.
The purpose of the Odoo 17 Lunch Module is to make your free
time enjoyable. Employees who work for the corporation are
entitled to a nutritious lunch. You can arrange your favorites
in this module, which is one of its appealing characteristics.
You can designate your food suppliers and the goods they
provide. Ordering any meal you like from the provided menu is
quite simple. They can pay the money for the food item using
the account balance. You will be presented with a list of
previously made food lists after choosing the module.
As you can see, the list of food products, together with the
employee's name and address, is viewable on this page. On the
page, you can also view the account balance. The page is also
available to view in List and Kanban views. You will find the
name of the food item and its price in each product. To get in
touch with the merchant, you may also view their phone. You
can add cuisine to your favorite list by using the star symbol
on the left.
Food that is available every day will be supplied using the
Filters. A panel listing the many types of food items and
merchants is visible on the left. To find out more information
about any of the food, you can choose it. You will receive the
meal that the vendor offers after choosing a certain vendor.
