Introduction

The Odoo Employee Overtime Approval App streamlines the overtime request and approval process within the Odoo HR ecosystem. Employees can submit requests for additional working hours, while managers and HR personnel can review and approve these through a structured workflow. The module enhances visibility into overtime processes, ensures accurate payroll integration, and builds an audit trail for transparent workforce management.

Key Features

  • Employees submit overtime request forms with dates, hours, and reasons

  • Automated approval workflow routes requests to managers and HR for validation

  • Notifications inform relevant parties of request status changes

  • Approval or rejection is captured with optional comments for clarity

  • Complete history of submissions, approvals, and rejections for audit purposes

Benefits

  • Reduces administrative errors by standardizing overtime request processes

  • Enhances transparency and accountability through formal approval tracking

  • Ensures consistency in compensation by integrating with payroll or timekeeping systems

  • Saves time by automating notifications and reducing manual follow-ups

  • Supports compliance and internal policy enforcement through record keeping
