ODOO'S FUNCTION
In Odoo standard, the Approvals app is used to request and validate business actions, but it does not natively create a new company as part of an approval workflow. If a business wants to set up a new company, the process must usually be done manually in the Companies menu by an administrator. This makes company creation less structured and harder to control through a formal approval process.
CLUEDOO'S FUNCTION
Cluedoo enhances the standard Approval process by introducing Approval type Create Company. Users can fill in the required company information (Company Name, Parent Company, Currency, Short Code)
This allows organizations to control new company creation through the approval workflow, ensuring that every company is created only after proper review and with the correct setup information.
