UniDistance Suisse | Education | 464 | $80M | Switzerland | Odoo | Odoo Timesheet | Time and Attendance | 2020 |
In 2020 UniDistance Suisse implemented Odoo Timesheet as part of an on-premise Odoo suite deployment to centralize time capture and workforce tracking under the Time and Attendance category. The initiative targeted a blended population of 486 staff and teachers and 2,440 users including students, and it was delivered alongside Contact Management, Mass Mailing, Leaves, Accounting & Finance, Assets, Project ticketing, Survey, Employee Directory, Contracts, and Expenses modules to create a unified operational platform.
Odoo Timesheet was configured and customized to support academic and administrative time collection workflows, with configuration aligned to project and ticketing processes used by course owners and teaching staff. Custom frontend and backend web applications were developed to complement the Timesheet and related modules, including a Registration App, Teacher App, Student App, and an Evaluation App based on Survey, leveraging the Odoo framework for extensibility and role based access for employees, teachers, and students.
The on-premise architecture integrated Odoo with Moodle for learning delivery, Signal Sign On from Switch for authentication flows, and the institution Mail Server hosted on Microsoft 365 for communications. Implementation partners Pesol and brain-tec led the deployment and salaryApp integrations, Redcor collaborated on delivery, and the Odoo Community Association provided Swiss Localization components for accounting, banking interaction, flexible financial reporting, and tier validations used in expense and invoicing workflows. The Odoo account manager for the engagement was Carlos Weishäupl.
Governance changes included centralizing data storage and instituting standardized validation workflows to replace disparate Excel based course records and multiple point solutions such as Sage for accounting, Blue Office for leaves and timesheets, and Jedox for BI. Validation tiers and approval workflows were embedded to align financial and HR processes across departments, enabling more uniform cross functional practices and clearer supervision of services provided to employees, teachers, and students.
The institution reported that moving to Odoo made study, administrative, and financial management processes available online and worldwide, enabling more flexible working practices and optimized resource management. The implementation narrative emphasizes customization, integration, and governance as core elements that enabled UniDistance Suisse to modernize its academic and administrative time and attendance operations using Odoo Timesheet in the Time and Attendance category.

UniDistance Suisse | Education | 464 | $80M | Switzerland | Odoo | Odoo Expenses | Expense Management | 2020 |
In 2020 UniDistance Suisse implemented Odoo Expenses as part of an on premise rollout of the Odoo suite to centralize administrative, academic and financial workflows. The deployment covered a company population of 486 staff and teachers and a system user base of 2,440 accounts including 97 employees, 1,954 students and 389 teachers, signaling institution-wide scope for Expense Management and related functions.
The implementation configured Odoo Expenses alongside Contact Management, Mass Mailing, Leaves, Timesheet, Accounting & Finance, Assets, Project ticketing, Survey, Employee Directory and Contracts. Odoo Expenses was customized within the Odoo framework to align expense reporting and approval workflows with university financial controls, leveraging standard Odoo capabilities and targeted custom modules for user-friendly submission, multi-level approvals and integration with payroll processes handled by a salaryApp.
The university integrated the Odoo platform with Moodle for learning management, Signal Sign On from Switch for authentication, and a Microsoft 365 mail server for messaging, while also developing institution-specific frontend and backend web apps such as Registration, Teacher, Student and Evaluation apps. The OCA community extensions and Swiss localization were applied for accounting and banking interactions, and a custom builder was used to report finance and budget data in flexible formats, creating consistent data flows between Expense Management, accounting and project ticketing.
Governance and rollout were driven by implementation partners Pesol and brain-tec, with Redcor involvement and coordination by an Odoo account manager, and included tier validations to enforce approval workflows for expenses and invoicing. The university reports that Odoo made study, administrative and financial management processes available online and worldwide, enabling more flexible working practices and improved resource management, outcomes explicitly noted by the institution.
