This module allows you to manage your employee languages.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Record the languages each employee speaks and how well they read, write, speak and listen. A new Languages tab appears on the employee form and a Languages menu lists all language records.
This module adds a way to keep track of the languages your employees know, directly inside the Human Resources app.
On each employee record, a new "Languages" tab appears in the employee form (visible to HR users). There you can add one line per language and tick the skills the person has: Read, Write, Speak and Listen. All four are ticked by default, so you only untick what does not apply. Each line also has a free-text description field for extra notes.
The language itself is chosen from a standard list of languages, and it is mandatory, as is the employee the line belongs to.
A new "Languages" menu is added under the Employees root menu. It opens a list of all language records with columns for employee, language, description and the four skill flags. From there you can create, edit or delete records, and use the search filters "Can Read", "Can Write", "Can Speak" and "Can Listen", or group the list by language or by employee.
Access is controlled: ordinary internal users can only read these records, while members of the HR officer group can create, edit and delete them.
