Calendar / Meeting Gantt View – See Your Meetings on a Gantt Timeline in Odoo

The standard Odoo Calendar is great for a day or week at a glance, but it doesn’t show meetings as a timeline you can scan across. This module adds a Gantt chart view to your Meetings, so you can see appointments laid out on a horizontal time axis – making it easy to spot overlaps, gaps, and how the schedule flows. It brings the Gantt view to Calendar, which isn’t available by default.


What is a Gantt View for Meetings?

A Gantt view lays records out as horizontal bars along a time axis, so you can see when each one starts, how long it runs, and how it lines up against everything else. It’s the classic way to read a schedule as a timeline rather than as separate day or week cells. This module brings that view to your Odoo Meetings: once installed, your Calendar gains a Gantt view where meetings appear as bars across the timeline, giving you a clear, at-a-glance picture of how appointments are spread out.

Why Do You Need It?

The default calendar grid is fine for checking a single day, but it makes it hard to see the shape of a busy schedule – where meetings overlap, where the gaps are, and how the whole period flows. A Gantt timeline solves this by putting everything on one continuous axis, so overlaps and free slots jump out immediately and planning becomes far easier. Importantly, Odoo doesn’t provide a Gantt view for the Calendar out of the box, so without this module that timeline perspective simply isn’t available. Adding it gives you a more powerful way to visualise and manage meetings – useful whenever you need to see the bigger scheduling picture rather than one day at a time.

When Should You Use This Module?

This module is useful for anyone who wants a timeline view of their meetings rather than just the standard calendar grid. It’s ideal for teams juggling many appointments who need to spot clashes and gaps quickly, for managers reviewing how meetings are distributed across a week or month, and for anyone who simply prefers a Gantt-style overview of their schedule. If you like the way Gantt charts make timing and overlaps obvious, and you want that same clarity for your Odoo meetings, this adds it directly to the Calendar. It builds on the Odoo Calendar app, so it fits straight into your existing setup.

How This Module Works in Practice

Setup is effortless – just install the module and the functionality is ready; no technical knowledge or configuration is required. Once installed, a Gantt view becomes available in your Calendar, sitting alongside the existing calendar views. Switch to it and your meetings are displayed as bars along a time axis, so you can immediately see how they line up, where they overlap, and where the open slots are. It’s a simple addition that gives your scheduling a clearer, timeline-based perspective without changing anything about how you already work in Odoo.
