Accounting License: AGPL-3

This module extends the Odoo Accounting module, to add the possibility to restrict usage of some fiscal positions to members of defined groups.

Once set, a user will have a blocking message, if he does'nt belong to the correct group, when he creates or updates partners and invoices.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0

Restrict which fiscal positions can be used by which users. If a fiscal position is limited to certain groups, only members of those groups can select it on a partner or an invoice.

This module adds a new field called Usage Groups on fiscal positions and on fiscal position templates. On the fiscal position form, the field appears right after the name, and you can pick one or more user groups there.

  • If the field is left empty, the fiscal position stays available to everyone, as before.
  • If one or more groups are set, only users who belong to at least one of those groups may use that fiscal position.

The restriction is enforced automatically when a user saves a customer or supplier record with a fiscal position, or saves an invoice that uses one. If the user is not in an allowed group, Odoo blocks the save and shows a message naming the fiscal position and listing the groups that are allowed, asking the user to contact their accountant or administrator.

The module touches the fiscal position, fiscal position template, invoice and partner areas of Odoo. It also adds a demo group called Demo Group Limited Access and two demo fiscal positions, one open to everybody and one restricted to that demo group, so the behaviour can be tested.
