Document Version Control
Track every version of every document on any Odoo record — with approval workflows, revision history, and supersession management.
The Challenge
Why organizations need Document Version Control
Teams share documents via attachments with names like 'Contract_v3_FINAL_revised.pdf'. There's no system record of which version is current or who approved it.
Important documents — contracts, SOPs, specs — are updated without any review process. Unapproved versions go live accidentally.
When a document is updated, the old version is overwritten. There's no way to retrieve what the document said six months ago or who made specific changes.
What Document Version Control Does
Six capabilities built specifically for this problem
Full Version Lifecycle
Documents move through states: Draft → Active → Superseded or Rejected. Only one version can be Active at a time per document record.
Approval Workflow
Drafts can require approval before going Active. Approvers are notified automatically. Rejection includes a reason logged on the version record.
Any Odoo Model
The document.version.mixin can be attached to any Odoo model — sale orders, purchase orders, projects, employees, or custom models.
Version Chain
Each version links to its predecessor via previous_version_id — creating a complete, navigable chain of document history.
Author & Approver Tracking
Every version records who created it and who approved it. The complete audit trail is always visible on the version record.
Upload Wizard
A clean upload wizard lets users attach new document files, add notes, and optionally request approval — all in one step.
How It Works
Operational in minutes — not weeks
Attach Document Version Control
Use the Upload Wizard to create version 1 of any document on any Odoo record. Add notes and choose whether approval is required.
Route for Approval
If approval is enabled, the designated approver is notified. They review the document and approve or reject with a reason. The state updates automatically.
Supersede When Updated
When a new version is ready, upload it and the previous Active version is automatically marked Superseded — keeping the full history intact.
Perfect For
Industries and organizations that rely on Document Version Control
Contract Management
Legal teams track every contract revision with full approval history. The Active version is always clearly identified, and the full negotiation trail is preserved.
Manufacturing SOPs
Quality teams manage SOP versions with mandatory approval before any procedure goes live. Operators always access the current approved version.
Vendor Documents
Procurement teams track vendor certificates, insurance docs, and compliance certificates — knowing when each was last approved and when it expires.
