Glue module for BI View Editor and Spreadsheet Dashboard.

To avoid a dependency of the bi_view_editor module on the spreadsheet module through the spreadsheet_dashboard module, the bi_view_editor menu items are parented to the legacy base.menu_board_root menu. In case the spreadsheet_dashboard module is installed, this auto-installable module moves them to the spreadsheet_dashboard menu.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0

This hidden glue module automatically moves the BI View Editor menus under the Spreadsheet Dashboard menu when both modules are installed, so users find BI views and custom reports in one place.

This is a small automatic helper module. It does not add any new screen, button, report or business rule; it only changes where existing menus appear in Odoo.

When the BI View Editor and Spreadsheet Dashboard modules are both installed, this module installs itself automatically and relocates two BI View Editor menu entries:

  • The BI View Editor views menu is placed under the Spreadsheet Dashboard configuration menu.
  • The BI View Editor custom reports menu is placed under the Spreadsheet Dashboard root menu.

As a result, users who work with spreadsheets and dashboards find the BI view and custom report options grouped together in the Spreadsheet Dashboard area instead of in the older board menu. Nothing else changes: no data, no permissions, no calculations.

The module touches only menu configuration; it defines no models of its own. Its purpose is purely organisational, keeping the reporting tools together in the interface.
