Odoo App · WhatsApp & Messaging
WhatsApp Calling (Community)
Place and receive WhatsApp voice calls inside Odoo Community — with full call history.
Overview
WhatsApp Calling (Community) adds WhatsApp voice calling to Odoo Community, so your team places and answers WhatsApp calls without switching to a phone or a separate app. It runs on the WhatsApp Business Calling API over Meta's WhatsApp Cloud API.
Built by TechUltra Solutions, the module works in both directions. Customers call your official WhatsApp business number and the call registers in Odoo, notifying available operators. Sales and support teams place outgoing calls to leads, customers, and vendors straight from CRM, Sales, and Contacts with a single click.
Every call is logged with caller and callee details, timestamps, duration, and status. Multiple operators share the same WhatsApp Business number, ongoing calls appear in real time, and the call history stays centralised in Odoo so managers have one record of every conversation.
Key features
-
Two-way WhatsApp calling
The module supports both customer-initiated incoming calls and business-initiated outgoing calls through the WhatsApp Cloud API, all handled inside Odoo.
-
Incoming customer calls
Customers call your official WhatsApp business number directly, the call is registered in Odoo automatically, and available operators are notified.
-
Outgoing calls from CRM and Sales
Teams call leads, customers, or vendors directly from CRM, Sales, or Contacts in Odoo, without copying numbers into a separate dialer.
-
Call duration tracking
Every call records how long it lasted, giving managers a clear figure for performance monitoring and reporting.
-
Multi-operator support
Several internal Odoo users can place and receive WhatsApp calls on the shared business number, which suits sales teams and customer support desks.
-
Real-time call history
Each incoming and outgoing call is logged with caller and callee details, timestamps, and status, so the call log stays current as calls happen.
-
Live view of active calls
Ongoing WhatsApp calls display in real time inside the Odoo interface, so the team can see which calls are in progress.
-
Channel calling history
The WhatsApp channel calling history shows call descriptions and durations, giving teams a shared record to review together.
-
Native Odoo integration
Call management is fully embedded in Odoo with no third-party app required, so operators work from the interface they already use.
