Employee self-service portal
Let employees serve themselves — without a full Odoo licence each
The SoftPrimes employee portal is a custom self-service solution built on Odoo. Employees submit leave, HR-letter and expense requests; managers, HR and Finance approve them in the same system.
Book a portal demoWhat employees can do in the portal
Every request has a clear approval path and a recorded history:
- Leave requests — choose the type and dates, see the balance, follow the history
- HR letters — choose the letter type, addressee and salary display preference
- Expense claims — enter the amount, attach the receipt and track reimbursement
Licensing: Portal User vs Internal User
Employees log in as Portal Users from your company's Odoo website, which does not require a full internal-user licence. HR, managers and Finance work as internal users. The custom portal itself is a separate implementation scope.
Access scoped to each employee
The solution is configured so each employee sees only their own requests and attachments, while authorized HR and Finance staff see what they need — with a recorded approval history.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is the portal standard Odoo or custom development?
Portal accounts use standard Odoo access; leave, HR-letter and expense self-service are custom SoftPrimes developments, scoped for your company.
What hosting does the portal need?
Custom portal modules require Odoo.sh or a server that allows custom development; ordinary Odoo Online does not host them.
Does the portal work on mobile?
Yes. It opens in any browser on mobile or desktop.
Can an employee see colleagues' data?
No. Each employee only sees their own data and requests, based on access rules set in Odoo.
