Turn Every Pay Run Into a Bank-Ready Payment Advice

Approve, disburse and notify with a single controlled workflow — role-based sign-off, bank validation, draft payments and proof-of-receipt tracking, built for Odoo Payroll.

The problem

Once a Pay Run is confirmed, someone still has to turn it into an instruction the bank can act on. In most companies that handoff is manual: exported spreadsheets, hand-built PDFs and email threads asking Finance to please process. Mistakes here mean unpaid or mispaid staff, and the process repeats every single cycle without ever getting easier.

The solution

Payroll Payment Advice converts a confirmed Pay Run or payslip date range into an approvable, bank-ready advice in one flow: role-based HR → Finance sign-off, automatic bank-detail validation, draft disbursement creation, and multi-channel employee notification with delivery and acknowledgement tracking — all inside Odoo.

Capabilities

Everything a payroll disbursement needs

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Bank-Ready Advice Generation

Generate one payment advice from a confirmed Pay Run or a custom payslip date range, with a single wizard pulling every employee's net pay into ready-to-approve lines.

02

Two-Stage Approval Workflow

Route every advice through configurable HR Manager then Finance Manager sign-off before funds move, with a single-stage fallback for smaller teams.

03

Pre-Send Bank Validation

Missing or untrusted employee bank accounts are flagged automatically before submission, catching a bad advice at the desk instead of at the bank.

04

Draft Disbursement Creation

Release approved advices straight into draft Accounting payments, batch-wide or per employee, on the correct bank journal, ready for Finance to post.

05

Multi-Channel Notifications

Email delivery is fully wired; SMS and WhatsApp channels are tracked with delivery and failure status so every employee has proof they were told about their pay.

06

Delivery & Acknowledgement Dashboard

One dashboard shows notified, delivered, acknowledged and failed counts per advice, so administrators chase only the failures.

07

Public Proof-of-Receipt Link

Every notification includes a secure, token-verified acknowledgement link so employees confirm they received their advice, closing the loop.

08

PDF Advice with Scannable Reference

Print a bank-ready PDF with a Code128 barcode of the advice reference, plus signature blocks for Prepared, HR Approved, Finance Approved and Released, and an Excel export for banks that need a spreadsheet upload.

09

Reversal & Reconciliation

Correct a paid advice with a one-click reversal that negates every line, and track total paid against total due until an advice is fully reconciled.

Workflow

How it works

1

Generate

Create an advice from a confirmed Pay Run or a payslip date range; the wizard pulls every employee, bank account and net amount into draft lines.

2

Approve

HR and Finance sign off in sequence, with bank details validated automatically before the advice can be released.

3

Disburse & Notify

Draft payments are created on the right bank journal and employees are notified by email (with SMS/WhatsApp tracked) the moment the advice is released.

4

Confirm & Reconcile

Employees acknowledge receipt through a secure link, Finance marks the batch paid, and reconciliation compares paid against due until the advice is closed.

No. It begins at a confirmed Pay Run (or a payslip date range) in Odoo Payroll and turns the computed net pay into a bank-ready payment advice — it never duplicates the payroll engine.
