This module allows to avoid to quick create new records, through many2one fields, for a specific model. You can configure which models should allow quick create. When specified, the quick create option will always open the standard create form.
Got the idea from
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Lets administrators disable the "quick create" shortcut on many2one fields for chosen models, so users must open the full create form instead of typing a name inline.
This module adds a per-model switch that controls whether records can be created quickly from a many2one field (the small "Create and edit..." / inline name entry).
Where it appears: - On the model configuration form (the same screen where models are listed under Settings > Technical > Models), a new checkbox "avoid_quick_create" is added next to the existing "transient" field.
What it does: - When the checkbox is ticked for a model, any attempt to quick-create a record of that model through a many2one field is blocked with a clear error message telling the user to contact the system administrator. - When the checkbox is unticked, the normal quick-create behaviour is restored. - The setting is applied automatically when the model configuration is saved, and it is also re-applied when Odoo starts or reloads its registry, so the choice persists across restarts.
Which areas it touches:
- It extends the ir.model model (the technical list of models) and its form view.
- It affects the name_create behaviour of the selected models, which is what many2one fields use for quick creation.
Business rule: - Administrators decide model by model whether inline creation is allowed; users of those models then see the standard create form instead of the quick shortcut.
