Odoo HR & Payroll: HMRC RTI Compliant & Unified with Timesheets
We implement Odoo HR and Payroll for UK employers: fully HMRC Real Time Information (RTI) compliant, automated workplace pension auto-enrolment, employee self-service leave portals, and seamless timesheet synchronization.
Eliminate Disconnected People Systems & Manual Payroll Drag
Managing employee leave in one software, timesheets in spreadsheets, and paying external payroll bureaus every month wastes management hours and causes payroll errors. Odoo HR unifies your entire workforce workflow.
Core Odoo HR & Payroll Capabilities
Automated generation and secure submission of Full Payment Submissions (FPS) and Employer Payment Summaries (EPS) directly to HMRC.
Automated assessment of eligible jobholders, pension deduction calculations, and export files formatted for NEST, The People’s Pension, and Smart Pension.
Mobile-friendly employee portal for viewing digital payslips, requesting annual leave, logging expenses, and updating personal details.
Hardware clock-in terminal integration and project timesheets flowing directly into approved monthly payroll runs with zero manual re-entry.
The 4 HR & Payroll Bottlenecks We Eliminate
Why disconnected standalone software limits business scale.
01. Payroll Bureau Delays & Ongoing Fees
Paying expensive monthly bureau processing fees and having to submit payroll data 10 days before pay day with zero agility.
02. Manual Leave & Sick Pay Calculations
HR staff manually reconciling Statutory Sick Pay (SSP), Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP), and bank holiday accruals in Excel.
03. Timesheet Discrepancies & Overpayments
Operational managers manually typing hours from paper timesheets into payroll software, leading to overpayment errors.
04. Employee Document & Contract Chaos
P45s, P60s, contracts, and disciplinary records scattered across physical filing cabinets and unsecured desktop folders.
Commercial Qualification: Is This the Right Fit for Your Business?
- UK employers with 15 to 250+ employees seeking to bring payroll and workforce management efficiently in-house.
- Companies with complex shift patterns, hourly wages, and project-based billable hours.
- HR Directors and Financial Controllers requiring full statutory HMRC and pension compliance.
- Micro-businesses with 1 or 2 employees where basic free payroll software is sufficient.
- Companies looking for external outsourced bureau service rather than in-house software automation.
- Teams unwilling to migrate their employee records into a unified digital database.

What We Build
Six parts of an Odoo HR setup.
We build agile pipelines that automate your job postings and CV indexing. Our systems allow candidates to sign contracts digitally, speeding up your time-to-hire by up to 24 percent.
A full-stack engine covering weekly or monthly pay runs, pension auto-enrolment, and student loan deductions. We ensure your payroll is legislatively compliant for every tax year.
We remove the friction of manual clock-ins. Our systems include mobile-ready timesheets and geo-fenced check-ins that ensure your staff costs are always accurate and auditable.
Maintain motivation through structured evaluation plans. We configure 360-degree feedback tools and automated appraisal schedules that help identify skill gaps and top-performing talent.
No more email requests. We implement a self-service portal where employees can request leave and view balances, while managers approve everything with a single click in a global calendar.
Empower your team with mobile expense capture. Employees snap photos of receipts which are then instantly converted into claims, validated by AI, and sent to finance for reimbursement.
100 Percent Native Integration
Unlike stand-alone HR tools, Odoo Payroll is built into the same system as your Project and Accounting modules. When an employee logs a timesheet on a client project, the data flows directly to payroll and invoicing.
Radical Admin Labor Reduction
Institutions moving to Odoo typically report a 30 to 40 percent reduction in manual administrative and data-reconciliation labor. The system handles the repetitive entry so your team can focus on culture.
Total Compliance Confidence
Odoo is a recognized software provider for UK Making Tax Digital (MTD) and RTI requirements. Every payroll run we configure includes built-in audit trails and automated digital submissions to HMRC.
Scalable Self-Service Portal
As you grow, your HR team should not. We provide a robust employee portal that allows your team to manage their own data, view payslips, and request training without ever needing to call HR.
Why Disconnected People Systems Limit Growth.
The "Spreadsheet Risk" Trap
Managing employee data in spreadsheets is a major security and GDPR risk. Over 46 percent of UK employers report at least one data error in the past year due to manual paper-based processes.
Manual Payroll and RTI Risks
Forgetting a submission date or miscalculating a tax code results in automatic HMRC penalties. Without a direct RTI connection, your business is more likely to suffer from expensive human errors.
Fragmented Onboarding Friction
If your recruitment system does not talk to your IT or HR portal, new hires face a slow, disorganized first week. This friction reduces employee confidence and increases your long-term churn rate.
Gaps in Billable Time Tracking
If you are a service firm and your timesheets are not linked to your payroll, you lose visibility into project profitability. This makes it impossible to calculate accurate fee-earner productivity or margins.
