Purchasing, organized into teams — not one shared inbox

Segment buyers into named purchase teams with automatic vendor routing, threshold-based approvals, an internal request-to-RFQ pipeline, and team KPI dashboards — all on top of standard Odoo Purchase.

The problem

Once a company has more than one buyer, every RFQ and purchase order lands in one shared list. There is no clear owner for a given order or vendor relationship, sensitive pricing and vendor terms are visible to buyers who have no business seeing them, and managers cannot answer basic questions like "what is my team’s open PO value?"

The solution

Purchase Team adds named teams with leads and members, isolates RFQ/PO visibility by team through record rules, and routes vendors to the right team automatically. A built-in request → approval → RFQ pipeline and a threshold-based Team Lead approval gate close the two biggest gaps left by every competing app, backed by a live team KPI dashboard.

Capabilities

Everything a procurement team needs

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Named Purchase Teams

Organize buyers by branch, department or product category. Each team has a lead, any number of members, a color, and its own approval threshold.

02

Team-Based Visibility Isolation

Record rules keep a buyer’s worklist to their own team’s RFQs and POs, while a team lead automatically sees every order across every team they lead.

03

Vendor-to-Team Routing

Set a purchase team on a vendor record and every new purchase order for that vendor defaults to the right team automatically.

04

Threshold-Based Approval Gate

Set a per-team approval threshold. Orders that exceed it are blocked from confirmation until the Team Lead grants explicit approval.

05

Purchase Request Pipeline

Buyers raise an internal purchase request with line items. Once approved, it converts into an RFQ for the chosen vendor with a single click.

06

Team Status Dashboard

A kanban landing page shows every team’s open order value, RFQ count, orders awaiting approval and confirmed order count at a glance.

07

Bulk Team Reassignment

Select any number of purchase orders or vendor records and reassign them to a different team in a single action — no record-by-record editing.

08

Procurement Role Templates

Three ready-made roles — Buyer, Team Lead and Auditor — replace hand-configured security groups with safe, procurement-specific defaults.

09

Team Filters On Purchase Orders

A Team column and filter added to the standard purchase order list make it fast for managers to jump between teams.

Workflow

How it works

1

Create Teams

Set up named purchase teams with a lead, members, product categories and an approval threshold.

2

Route & Request

Vendors route new purchase orders to their team automatically; buyers submit purchase requests for products they need.

3

Approve & Confirm

Team leads approve requests and any order that exceeds the team’s threshold before it can be confirmed.

4

Track & Reassign

Follow team KPIs from the dashboard and bulk-reassign orders or vendors in one click during a restructure.
