Hello,
In earlier Odoo versions, hr.contract was replaced by hr.version.
You can try using:
version.wage
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Great question! In Odoo Payroll salary rules, the available objects are predefined. Here's how to correctly access contract wage and unpaid days:

Available Objects in Salary Rule Python Code:

  • payslip – the current payslip object
  • employee – the employee record
  • contract – the active contract
  • rules – computed salary rules
  • categories – salary rule categories
To access Contract Wage:
result = contract.wage

Common Fix: Ensure your rule's Condition Type is set to "Python Expression" and the Amount Type is "Python Code" — otherwise contract won't be in scope.

To access Total Unpaid Days:
unpaid_days = payslip.worked_days_line_ids.filtered(lambda x: x.code == 'UNPAID')
result = unpaid_days[0].number_of_days if unpaid_days else 0

Make sure the UNPAID work entry type code matches your configuration exactly.

Great question! In Odoo Payroll, salary rule Python code runs in a specific context with predefined variables.

Available variables in salary rule code:

  • contract – employee contract object
  • payslip – current payslip object
  • employee – employee object
  • categories – salary rule categories
  • worked_days – worked days object
  • inputs – input lines object
To access contract wage:
result = contract.wage

To access unpaid/leave days from payslip:
unpaid = worked_days.UNPAID.number_of_days if worked_days.UNPAID else 0.0

Common fix for "name not defined" error:
Make sure your rule's Condition is set to Python Expression and the Amount Type is set to Python Code — not fixed amount or percentage.

Also verify the work entry type code matches exactly (e.g., UNPAID, WORK100) under Payroll → Configuration → Work Entry Types.

Great question! In Odoo payroll salary rules, the available objects in the Python code context are predefined.

Available objects in Salary Rule Python Code:

  • employee – Employee record
  • contract – Employee contract (use this for wage)
  • payslip – Current payslip record
  • worked_days – Worked days object
  • inputs – Input lines
  • categories – Salary categories
To access contract wage:
result = contract.wage

To access total unpaid/leave days from payslip:
unpaid = worked_days.UNPAID.number_of_days if hasattr(worked_days, 'UNPAID') else 0.0
result = unpaid


Common Fix: If you get "name not defined", ensure your rule Condition is set to Python Expression and the Amount Type is set to Python Code — not fixed amount.

Also verify the work entry type code matches exactly (e.g., UNPAID, LEAVE90, etc.) as defined in your configuration.

Great question! In Odoo payroll salary rules, the available predefined variables are limited — you cannot use arbitrary Python variable names directly.

To access Contract Wage:
Use contract.wage — but make sure your rule's Condition and Python Code fields are set correctly. The correct syntax is:

  1. Set rule type to "Python Code"
  2. In the code field, use:
    result = contract.wage
Available predefined objects in salary rules:
  • contract — employee contract
  • payslip — current payslip object
  • employee — employee record
  • worked_days — worked days lines
  • inputs — input lines
To access unpaid days:
worked_days.UNPAID and worked_days.UNPAID.number_of_days or 0

The error "name object is not defined" usually means the rule is not in Python Code mode or there's a syntax issue in your expression field.
