Turn applicants into paid-up members without the spreadsheet chaos
Cooperative Membership & Share Capital runs the full lifecycle — online subscription, approval, capital-release invoicing, payment, share register, dividends and a member portal — in one Odoo app.
The problem
Cooperatives track members, share subscriptions and capital calls in spreadsheets and manual journal entries. Capital calls go uninvoiced, the share register drifts out of sync with accounting, and onboarding a single new member becomes a multi-day, error-prone chore once membership grows past a few dozen people.
The solution
Cooperative Membership & Share Capital gives administrators one coherent app: a public subscription form that becomes an approved member, an automatic capital-release invoice, a live share register, and a self-service member portal — so every subscription, payment and holding stays accurate and audit-ready without manual bookkeeping.
Everything a cooperative back office needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Online Subscription Form
A public, no-login, multi-step website form walks applicants through identity and share details, with honeypot spam protection built in.
Approval Workflow
Subscription requests move through submitted, approved, paid and rejected states on a visual pipeline board, with one-click approve and reject actions.
Capital-Release Invoicing
Approving a subscription automatically generates the capital-release invoice, ready for standard Odoo online payment.
Automatic Share Allocation
Once the capital-release invoice is paid, shares are allocated to the member automatically, closing the subscription-to-payment loop.
Multiple Share Types
Configure distinct share classes with their own nominal value and minimum/maximum holding rules, and convert members between them.
Share Register & Audit Trail
A live register of who holds what, backed by a full transaction audit trail covering every subscription, conversion and redemption.
Dividend Records
Record and post dividend distributions per share type, with editable payout lines for every member and draft/post controls.
Referral Source Tracking & Analytics
Capture how each applicant found the cooperative, and analyze acquisition channels with built-in graph and pivot reporting.
Member Self-Service Portal
Members log in to see their holdings and transaction history, and download their membership certificate on demand.
How it works
Apply online
The prospective member fills out the multi-step public subscription form, choosing share type, quantity and referral source.
Review & approve
An administrator reviews the request on the pipeline board and approves or rejects it with one click.
Invoice & pay
Approval generates a capital-release invoice; the member pays online and shares are allocated automatically.
Manage & report
The member tracks holdings and certificates in the portal while admins manage the register, dividends and referral analytics.
