Offline forms in Odoo

No signal, no problem

Offline forms in Odoo. No signal, no problem.

  • Field technicians in a basement.
  • Inspectors on a remote site.
  • Sales reps at a trade fair with overloaded Wi-Fi.


The form still has to be filled in, signal or not.

Nova Forms on Odoo 20 now supports offline forms.

Fill in, save and submit forms without a connection, right in the Odoo web client, built on Odoo's own offline mode.

What you get:

📋 My Offline Forms: forms assigned to you or submitted by you are ready offline, and kept up to date automatically while you're online.

🔗 Forms of a record: open a lead, ticket or task while online, and its forms work offline too.

➕ New forms offline: start a blank form offline, also from a record's Forms page.

📷 Files and choices: upload photos and pick from choices loaded from Odoo, all offline.

☁️ Sent when back online: what you save offline is sent automatically once the connection returns.


And the details that make it practical day to day:

🔄 Manual sync (button) to fetch new forms whenever you want, from the dedicated My Offline Forms view

📤 A clear send state, so you see at a glance what's still waiting to go out

✅ Server validation errors shown when a form is sent once the connection is online, so nothing slips through unnoticed

🔍 Search, filters and group by on your offline forms
