This module adds the chatter on the journal entries for managing attachments and communications in this document.
This has been added on version 13, so this module won't be needed there.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0Adds the chatter (messages, followers and scheduled activities) to journal entries, so users can log notes, attach files and follow up on accounting documents directly in Odoo.
This module brings the standard Odoo communication panel, known as the chatter, to journal entries. Before it, an accounting entry had no place to write internal notes, attach supporting documents or schedule follow-up activities.
Where it appears: - On the journal entry form (the same screen used for customer invoices, vendor bills and miscellaneous entries), a chatter area is added below the main content. - That area contains three parts: followers (people who receive notifications), scheduled activities (to-dos with a deadline and responsible user), and the message history.
What users can do: - Post messages and internal notes on an entry. - Attach files to the entry through the chatter. - Add or remove followers so colleagues get notified. - Schedule activities (for example, a reminder to review or pay an entry) and see them in their activity list.
What it changes in Odoo:
- The journal entry model (account.move) now behaves like other documents that support communication, so it gains message, follower and activity tracking.
- No new menus, reports, automatic checks or scheduled jobs are added; the module only enables the chatter and its standard behaviours on journal entries.
