Approval Studio

Approval rules for any document, without writing code.

Odoo 19.0 & 20.0Extra Tools / ProductivityOPL-1 licenseNo Enterprise required

What it does

Configurable approval workflows on any business model: parallel or any-one steps, delegation, escalation and audit trail.

  • Workflows bound to any model with a record domain and amount/field conditions
  • Any-one (first approval wins) or all-must (quorum) steps
  • Approver types: fixed user, group, applicant's manager, or a user field on the record
  • Delegation calendar: pending tasks are reassigned automatically during absence
  • Timeout escalation through a cron job, with activity and notification
  • Optional hard gate that blocks confirm/post/validate until approval
  • Full audit trail in chatter: who, when, decision, comment
  • Withdraw by the requester while the request is still open
