About this Product
A complete academic ERP built natively on Odoo (17, 18 and 19) to run your entire institution from a single database — admissions, enrollment, class and section structures, timetables, daily attendance, examinations, grading, report cards and a self-service parent/student portal. This is not an off-the-shelf apps.odoo.com download. ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs and supports a module tailored to how your school actually operates: your grading scale, your attendance policy, your fee structure and your report-card layout.
Under the hood it is real Odoo engineering. Academic entities (students, guardians, courses, batches, sections, subjects, exams, grades) are modeled as models.Model classes with proper relational fields (Many2one, One2many, Many2many) so students link cleanly to guardians, batches, attendance lines and exam results. Derived values — attendance percentage, weighted GPA, pass/fail status, term totals — are @api.depends computed fields that stay correct automatically as source data changes, rather than brittle spreadsheet formulas. Access is locked down with ir.model.access.csv model-level rights plus record rules so a class teacher sees only their own sections, an examiner only their subjects, and parents only their own children — enforced by the Odoo ORM, not by hiding buttons.
The interface uses standard Odoo views (list, form, kanban, calendar, gantt) defined in XML, with OWL components where a richer experience helps — a color-coded attendance grid, a drag-and-drop timetable, a grade-entry sheet. Report cards, transcripts, admit cards, fee receipts and mark sheets are QWeb PDF reports styled to your letterhead. Automated actions and scheduled jobs handle the repetitive work: flag students below an attendance threshold, email parents when a report card is published, roll students to the next class at term end. Because it is native Odoo, it composes with the modules you already run — Accounting for fees and invoicing, Website for online admission forms, Calendar for the academic timetable, Email Marketing for parent communications — and every record is reachable over Odoo's XML-RPC / JSON-RPC API for integration with a mobile app, biometric attendance device or existing website.
The module works on Odoo Community and Enterprise; we confirm which edition-specific features (e.g. Studio, advanced accounting, Gantt) your plan needs during scoping so nothing is promised that your license can't run. Delivery is a build-to-order engagement: after purchase we scope your requirements, build the module, install it on your Odoo (Odoo.sh, on-premise or ECOSIRE-managed hosting), migrate your existing student data, train your staff, and support you through go-live — typically a one working week lead time depending on scope.
What you get
- Complete installable Odoo module (source code) with a proper __manifest__.py declaring dependencies, data files, security and views — compatible with your target Odoo 17, 18 or 19 and edition
- Data models, computed fields, security (ir.model.access.csv + record rules), XML/OWL views and QWeb report templates configured to your grading scale, attendance policy and report-card layout
- Installation and deployment on your environment — Odoo.sh, on-premise, or ECOSIRE-managed hosting — including database configuration and dependency setup
- Migration of your existing student, guardian, class and (where available) historical result data into the new structure via import scripts or the API
- Branded QWeb documents — report card, transcript, admit card, fee receipt and mark sheet templates styled to your institution's letterhead
- Configuration workbook and admin/user documentation covering day-to-day operations, plus staff training sessions (admissions, attendance, exams, portal management)
- Post-go-live support window with bug fixes and Odoo minor-version compatibility, plus a written scope for any future enhancements
Who this is for
School / College Administrator
Runs admissions, class allocation, timetables and staff attendance day-to-day. Wants one system that replaces scattered spreadsheets and manual registers, with reliable report-card generation and role-scoped access for teachers.
Principal or Academic Director
Needs institution-wide visibility into enrollment, attendance trends, exam performance and pass rates across sections and academic years, with dashboards and transcripts they can trust because the numbers are computed, not typed.
IT / ERP Manager at an Institution
Owns the Odoo deployment and integrations. Values a native module (real models, proper security, XML-RPC/JSON-RPC API) that composes with existing Accounting, Website and Calendar modules and won't break on the next Odoo upgrade.
Registrar / Examination Officer
Manages exam scheduling, mark entry, grading scales and result publication. Wants weighted grading, GPA and pass/fail computed automatically and report cards produced in bulk per section.

Frequently Asked Questions about Education ERP / School Management System
How long until the module is delivered and installed?
This is a build-to-order engagement, not an instant download. After purchase we run a short scoping call to confirm your class structure, grading scale, attendance policy and report-card layout, then build, install and configure the module on your Odoo environment. Typical lead time is one working week depending on scope, data migration volume and the number of custom reports. You get a delivery timeline in writing before the build starts.
What support and updates do I get after go-live?
Every engagement includes a post-go-live support window covering bug fixes, configuration adjustments and compatibility with Odoo minor releases on your version (17, 18 or 19). We hand over documented, maintainable code so you're never locked in. After the included window, ongoing support, new features and major-version migrations (e.g. 18 to 19) are available under a maintenance plan or a scoped change request.
Does it work on Odoo Community or only Enterprise?
The core module runs on both Odoo Community and Enterprise. Some conveniences — Odoo Studio, advanced accounting or the Gantt view — are Enterprise-only, so during scoping we confirm which edition-specific features your plan actually needs and design the build to match your license. We never promise functionality your edition can't run.
Can parents and students log in to see attendance and results?
Yes. The module extends Odoo's website portal so guardians and students get self-service access to timetables, attendance, results, published report cards, fee status and announcements. Access is enforced by Odoo record rules, so each family sees only their own children's data — it's ORM-level security, not just hidden menus.
Will it integrate with fees, our website admission form, and a mobile app?
Yes. Because it's built natively on Odoo, fee structures generate invoices and receipts through Odoo Accounting/Sales, online admission forms can be published through the Odoo Website module, and the academic timetable lives in Odoo Calendar. Every record is also exposed over Odoo's XML-RPC / JSON-RPC API, so a mobile app, biometric attendance device or SMS/email gateway can read and write data programmatically.
Can you migrate our existing student and result data?
Yes. Migrating existing data is part of the deliverables. We import your current students, guardians, classes and — where records are available — historical results into the new structure using import files or the Odoo API, and reconcile the counts with you before go-live so nothing is lost.
