HR & Payroll Module

Employees, payslips, and leave management without the admin.

Odoo HR and Payroll centralise your employee records, automate payslip calculation, and give employees a self-service portal for leave requests and documents — all in one system.

Key capabilities

What Odoo HR & Payroll does for your business.

Employee records & org chart

Centralized employee database with contracts, documents, and org chart. Role hierarchy and reporting lines visualised automatically.

Payslip automation

Configure salary structures, deductions, and allowances once. Odoo calculates every payslip automatically based on timesheets and attendance.

Leave management

Employees request leave via the self-service portal. Managers approve or decline with one click. Balances update automatically.

Expense management

Employees submit expenses on mobile with photo receipts. Approval workflow, accounting posting, and reimbursement — all in Odoo.

Recruitment pipeline

Job postings, applicant tracking, and interview scheduling built in. Successful candidates convert to employees with zero re-entry.

Appraisals & goals

Structured performance review cycles with goal tracking, 360 feedback, and automated reminders for managers and employees.

Problems we solve

Three problems every HR & Payroll deployment solves.

💡

The problem

HR team emailing leave requests and tracking balances in a spreadsheet

Odoo solution

The employee self-service portal handles all leave requests, approvals, and balance tracking automatically. HR is notified, managers approve, balances update — zero spreadsheet maintenance.

⚡

The problem

Payroll calculated manually from timesheets each month — prone to errors

Odoo solution

Odoo pulls approved timesheet hours directly into payroll calculation. Salary structures, overtime rules, and deductions are configured once and applied consistently every cycle.

🎯

The problem

Employee documents scattered across email threads and shared drives

Odoo solution

Every employee record in Odoo has a document vault — contracts, IDs, certifications, and offer letters. Access-controlled, version-tracked, and always findable.

Client result

Payroll processing time cut from 2 days to 3 hours.

A 120-person company was processing payroll by exporting timesheets to Excel, manually applying salary rules for each employee type, and reconciling against leave balances. Two people worked two full days every payroll cycle.

We configured Odoo Payroll with structured salary rules linked directly to approved timesheets. Payroll now runs in 3 hours for 120 employees — with full audit trail.
