GPS-Verified Attendance

Employees check in and out using GPS so the system can confirm they are at an approved location. They can review their attendance history and see a monthly summary.

Apply, Track, and Trust the Balance

Employees can apply for leave, follow the request and cancel it from their phone. The important point is that every request is checked against real allocation balances, so the number an employee sees is the number HR works with.

Each request carries an approval status, such as “Pending approval,” and a comment trail. If a manager asks a question or explains a decision, that conversation stays attached to the request instead of getting lost in email.

The sample screen shows 18 days available and 4 days used. The result is fewer surprises and less back-and-forth about how many days someone actually has.

Payroll Figures Employees Can Trust

Employees can see an itemised payslip with net pay, earnings, deductions and a button to download the payslip as a PDF.

This page also tells an honest story about quality. An early version of the payslip screen always showed AED 0.00 in deductions, no matter what was actually deducted. That kind of error would quickly damage employees’ trust in the app.

In plain terms, the cause was how the system looked for deduction lines. It searched for each line by the name of its individual rule, when it needed to group them by deduction category. Many different rules fall under the same category, so grouping by category is the only correct way to add up every deduction.

The fix now totals deductions correctly by category, and the team checked it against a real payslip before signing it off. The message to readers is that payroll accuracy was treated as a must-get-right item, not just a screen to display.

Odoo Planning as the Single Source of Truth

Shifts are managed in Odoo Planning, and the mobile app reflects them. Whenever a shift is created, edited, reassigned or deleted, the change is passed along straight away, so employees always see the current schedule.

The page also highlights shift swaps. When a swap is approved, the actual shift in Planning is reassigned to the other person. It is not merely a status label on a request. That means the schedule managers rely on is always correct.

The flow shown is Odoo Planning, then HRMS, then the employee’s mobile app. The sample screen lists shifts such as Monday Front Desk 09:00-17:00 and Wednesday Support 13:00-21:00, and an approved swap request.

Logged Hours, Reviewed by HR

Employees record the time they spend on assigned projects and tasks. HR then reviews and approves the entries.

This is useful for project-based work, where companies need to know where time goes, and for approval, since submitted hours can be checked before they are accepted. The sample screen shows a weekly view with project and task entries and a “Pending approval” indicator.
