Base Analytic Product Category Categorization
Filter and Group Analytic Entries by Product Category
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0Adds a Product Category field to analytic entries, automatically filled from the product, so you can filter and group analytic lines by product category.
This module extends analytic accounting entries (account.analytic.line) with a new "Product Category" field. The value is taken automatically from the product used on the line, so users do not have to fill it in manually; it is stored and read-only.
Where it appears: - On the analytic entry form, the Product Category field is shown right after the Product field. - In the analytic entries search view, the same field is available for filtering, and a new "Product Category" filter lets you group entries by product category.
Business behaviour:
- The category is derived from the product's category (product_id.categ_id) and saved on the entry.
- When the module is installed on an existing database, a pre-installation step fills the new field for all existing analytic lines, so historical data is ready to use without a long manual update.
This touches the analytic accounting area and the product category model (product.category). No new menus, buttons, reports, emails or scheduled jobs are added by the code.
