Odoo Birthday Reminder (Employees) is an Odoo app that emails a birthday greeting to users and employees. It helps a company show staff that it cares about them beyond sales targets.
Admins create an event reminder in Odoo. They give it a name, pick who gets the wish, choose an email template, and set how many days early the greeting should go out.
After that, no daily work is needed. The Birthday Reminder cron runs once every day and emails the greeting to each person whose birthday matches the reminder.
Recipients can be All Users, Only Portal Users, or Employees. Each reminder can be switched on or off, and it links to the email template and the cron it uses.
Admins can edit the greeting text, subject, sender, and options in the email template. They can also change the cron scheduler to suit the company routine.
This app depends on another module, so to use it you also need Odoo Website Birthday Reminder.

Why Do We Need an Employee Birthday Reminder in Odoo?
Remembering a birthday is a simple way to show staff that they matter. Good workplace ties build trust, reduce conflict, and help people feel they belong.
Odoo does not send birthday wishes by default. Someone has to track dates, write each email, and remember to send it on the right day. Dates get missed as the team grows.
This app moves that work to Odoo. Admins set up an event reminder once, and the daily cron sends the birthday greeting email to the chosen group.
A small detail matters here: Send Greeting Before takes a number of days. The demo Birthday reminder uses 5, so its greeting goes out five days before the actual date.
Also, if you want to recognize staff for their work, you can check our extension Odoo Employee Reward System.
