Odoo Payroll – Error-free, on-time pay runs
Payroll for all companies
Odoo Payroll calculates salaries from employment contracts, attendance and time off. The system is pre-configured for payroll laws in various countries and produces payslips individually or in batch.
Reports and journal postings to accounting are available out of the box.

Core capabilities of Odoo Payroll
Contract-based payroll calculation
Each employee has a contract with a salary structure and working schedule. Odoo computes gross, statutory deductions and net pay from the current payroll rules — no manual formulas.
Automatic work-time intake
Hours worked, time off and leave are pulled automatically from Attendances, Time Off and Planning. Errors must be fixed before the pay run is closed.
Pay runs
All payslips for a payroll period are bundled into a pay run. After review and approval, payments can be exported as a batch transfer file for uploading to your bank.
German localisation
Odoo Payroll can be configured for German statutory requirements. Salary structures and deduction rules are customisable to meet applicable regulations.
Employee self-service and reports
Employees receive payslips through the self-service portal. Managers have access to headcount reports, labour-cost analytics and annual summaries by department.
How it works in practice
Define structures
Pay types, allowances, deductions and company benefits are configured once. Statutory contributions and taxes are calculated automatically.
Validate attendance
Working hours, absences and overtime from time tracking flow automatically into the payroll calculation.
Run payroll
Pay runs are generated for all employees at the click of a button. Pay slips are digitally accessible; errors are shown before approval.
Post and pay
Salary postings are transferred automatically to Accounting. A batch payment export file is generated for the bank.
Why Odoo Payroll
Error-free payroll without manual formulas
Pay types, deductions and allowances are calculated by rules. Correction rounds before the payment run are eliminated.
Direct feed from HR and time tracking

Audit-ready payroll history
Every payslip is archived for audit purposes. Queries from year-end close or audits are answered in seconds.
Automatic payment export
Approved pay runs generate a batch transfer export file — ready for upload to your bank or online banking portal.
