Approval Matrix Engine for Odoo

Build model-agnostic, multi-level approval workflows in Odoo with configurable rules, automated routing, document locking, and full approval history.

Route sales orders, bills, purchases, expenses, leave requests, and custom documents through approval.
Choose sequential, any-one-can-approve, or all-must-approve flows for each approval level.
Lock source records during approval and keep every decision traceable for audits.
Use matrix sequence priority so the right approval rule is selected when multiple rules match.

Key features

Govern every approval workflow from one engine.

Define approval rules once, then let Odoo submit, notify, lock, track, and release records automatically.

Model-Agnostic Rules

Apply approval logic to any standard or custom Odoo model with configurable fields and conditions.

Three Approval Modes

Use sequential, any-one-can-approve, or all-must-approve behavior based on the risk and process.

Automatic Record Locking

Prevent unauthorized edits while a business document is waiting for approval or rejection.

Full Audit Trail

Capture submit, approve, reject, comment, date, and user details for governance and compliance.

Email and Activities

Notify approvers through Odoo activities and email so pending decisions stay visible.

Granular Security

Control who can configure matrices, view requests, approve, reject, and access approval records.

Everything is configured from Odoo screens. No custom code is required to create new approval matrices.

How it works

From business document to final decision.

The module monitors configured records, creates approval requests, locks the source document, and releases it after the workflow is completed.

STEP 01

Configure the matrix

Select the model, trigger fields, conditions, approval mode, levels, and approvers.

STEP 02

Choose by sequence

If more than one active matrix matches, Odoo selects the matrix with the lowest sequence value first.

STEP 03

Trigger approval

Odoo creates one approval request from the selected matrix and links it to the source document.

STEP 04

Review and decide

Approvers act from activities, emails, or the approval request screen according to the active level.

STEP 05

Unlock and audit

The source record is unlocked after completion, with the full decision trail preserved.

Configuration

Create approval matrices without development work.

Set up reusable workflows for high-value orders, vendor bills, purchase requests, expenses, leave requests, or any custom model.

Navigate

Open Approval and go to Approval Matrix.

Select the target model

Choose the business document that should require approval.

Add trigger conditions

Define field-based rules such as amount thresholds, partner criteria, or document states.

Set matrix priority

Use the sequence value to control priority. Lower sequence numbers are evaluated first when multiple matrices match the same record.

Pick the approval mode

Choose sequential, any one approver, or all approvers at a level.

Assign approvers

Create levels and assign the users responsible for each decision stage.

Business documents

Approval status stays visible on the source record.

Users can see when a sales order or other document is under approval, while the record remains protected from unauthorized updates.

Approver notifications

Email and Odoo activity alerts guide approvers to pending records as soon as their level is active.

  • Activities are created for responsible approvers.
  • Email templates keep approval communication consistent.

Access control

Security groups and record rules keep configuration and approval actions in the right hands.

  • Separate permissions for users, approvers, and managers.
  • Record rules help restrict approval visibility by role.
Use cases

One approval framework for many departments.

Use the same engine to standardize approvals across finance, sales, purchasing, HR, operations, and custom workflows.

Sales Orders

Route quotations and orders for approval before confirmation based on amount, customer, or margin rules.

Vendor Bills

Require finance or management approval for bills that match configured vendor or value thresholds.

Purchase Requests

Control procurement approvals with structured approval levels and automatic request tracking.

Installation

Install and start configuring inside Odoo.

Install the module, refresh apps, then create your first approval matrix from the Approval menu.

STEP 01

Add to add-ons folder

Copy the approval_matrix_confianz module into your Odoo add-ons path alongside other custom modules.

STEP 02

Update apps list

Activate Developer Mode and click Update Apps List from the Apps menu to register the new module.

STEP 03

Install

Search for Approval Matrix Engine in the Apps menu and click Install to activate the module.

Get started with Approval Matrix Engine

Confianz can help map your approval policies into Odoo workflows with security, notifications, and auditability built in.
