auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0

Allows users to enter long, multi-line descriptions on analytic accounting lines instead of being limited to a short single-line label.

This module changes the Description field on analytic accounting lines so it can hold long, multi-line text instead of a short single-line value.

  • The field is still required, so users must fill in a description when creating an analytic line.
  • Because it is now a text field, users can write several lines of explanation, notes or comments on the same analytic line.
  • It applies to the account.analytic.line model, which is the record used for analytic accounting entries.
  • The change is visible wherever analytic lines are created or edited, such as the Description column and form field on analytic line screens.
  • No new menus, buttons, reports, checks or automatic computations are added; the module only widens the existing field.

This is useful when a single analytic entry needs more context than a short label allows, for example detailed notes about a cost or time entry.
