Now let's start with OpenHRMS Core. Have a look at the following blog to explore more about HRMS Implementation Checklist. HRMS Implementation Checklist

When it came to Odoo V13 the web responsive module was not functioning in its exact way. But in the new OpenHRMS Core, the menu view is changed to one with the exciting icons of the menu. Also one of the best 

features ie, the search bar. You can search all the menus from the search bar itself.

Next is the provision to sort the menus. As you see OpenHRMS has a lot of features. While the features increase, the list of the menus will also increase. Odoo gives the provision to change the sequence number of the menus but in OpenHRMS you will be able to sort the menus. You only need to enable the settings. 

Settings -> General Settings -> Menu Management -> Order Menu Alphabets

By enabling this feature the main menus will be sorted automatically. But the Dashboard, Apps, and Settings menu will not be changed as they are the first and the last menus in default odoo.
