This module extends the functionality of the Leaves App to make possible to notify by mail the manager of the employee requesting the leave.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0

Adds a company setting so that, when an employee creates a leave request, their manager is automatically added as a follower and notified by email.

This module extends the Leaves app so managers can be kept informed about leave requests without anyone having to add them manually.

A new option, "Leave Requests notified to employee's manager", appears in the Leaves settings screen. It is stored per company, so each company can decide whether the behaviour is active.

When the option is enabled and an employee who has a manager creates a leave request, the manager is automatically added as a follower of that request and receives an email notification. If the option is off, or the employee has no manager configured, nothing extra happens.

The module touches the leave request model (hr.leave), the company model (res.company) and the settings model (res.config.settings). The setting is only visible through the configuration screen; no new menu is added.
