Employee Number Generator

Simplify and automate your human resources administration by generating unique, sequential employee numbers dynamically. This module eliminates manual tracking, spreadsheet lookups, and copy-paste errors when onboarding new hires. Assign codes instantly with a single click directly on the employee profile, or use bulk action menus to assign numbers to multiple records simultaneously. The module integrates seamlessly with Odoo's native sequences, giving you full control over code structure and custom formatting.

1. One-Click ID Generation
Instantly assign the next sequential employee number with a single click from the employee form header. The button automatically hides once an ID is assigned to prevent accidental overrides.

2. Bulk Action Support
Select multiple employee records in the list view and assign sequential numbers to all of them at once using Odoo's native Action menu.

3. Flexible Sequence Customization
Fully customize your employee number format—including custom prefixes (e.g., EMP-), suffixes, number of padding digits, and starting number—directly from the standard Odoo Sequence settings.

4. Smart Search Integration
Quickly find employee profiles by typing their generated employee number in the standard Odoo search filter.

5. Data Override Safety
The system automatically checks and skips any records that already have an assigned Employee Number, ensuring your existing database records are protected.
