My name is Abdelrahman, and I've been working at Odoo for nearly a year. Before joining Odoo, I spent another year working as an Odoo developer. I started in the R&D department as a Software Developer and chose to join the HR team after realizing how impactful the apps we build are. I initially contributed to various HR apps, but I eventually found myself especially drawn to the complexity and value of payroll. Since then, I’ve been focusing on improving payroll logic and that’s what brought me here today.

Looking to tailor Odoo Payroll to fit your local or company-specific needs? In this talk, we’ll explore how to build a complete payroll setup from scratch. Step by step, we'll:

  • Create a new payroll structure (template that defines payslip components)

  • Add custom salary rules and parameters

  • Define manual inputs for bonuses, penalties, and other variable adjustments

  • Assign the structure to employees and generate payslips

  • Handle unpaid work entries and link them to time off

This live demo will give you the practical tools and insights to confidently customize payroll in Odoo
