Description

Odoo module for Weladee

This Odoo module create the link between Weladee and your Odoo 14.0 instance.

You will be able to synchronize departments, employees and attendance. Import expenses, timesheet, leave, holidays, ... from Weladee to your Odoo instance.

What is synschronized

Bi-Directional between Odoo-Weladee / Weladee-Odoo

The idea is to use Weladee a HRMS addon to Odoo. So mostof the data is collected in Weladee and then imported to Odoo.

There are 3 exceptions:

• Department
• Employee
• Position

These 3 data can be sent to Weladee from Odoo and vice versa.

In case of conflict, the most recent data will be used. It shouldn't be a problem because the data is not often updated. The HR operator should decice which app to use to update the data. Create employee on Weladee is probably the best move.

Uni-Directional from Weladee to Odoo

This data is sent from Weladee to Odoo. Weladee feeds Odoo with HRMS data.

• Attendance
• Leave (business, vacation, sick)
• Timesheet (project, task)
• Job classifieds (https://job.weladee.com)
• Expenses
• Skills
