Business Requirement Deliverable - Project

This module connects business requirements with project management. On a business requirement form, project users get a new field "On Approval" where they choose what should happen when the requirement is approved: nothing, create tasks in an existing project, or create a new project containing the tasks.

• If "create tasks in a project" is chosen, a project must be selected; otherwise Odoo shows an error when trying to generate tasks.
• If "create a new project with tasks" is chosen, Odoo creates a project named after the requirement, with the customer and company, and default task stages (To Do, In Progress, Done, Cancelled).
• Tasks are generated automatically when the requirement moves to approved, in progress or done, and only for deliverables that do not already have a task.
• A "Create Tasks" button appears on the requirement when tasks can still be generated, and only project users may use it.

Each deliverable becomes one task: the first line of the deliverable name is the task title, the remaining lines go into the description, and the customer, sequence and requirement link are copied. If the deliverable is measured in time, its quantity becomes the task's allocated hours. A note is posted on each task saying it was created from the requirement.

A "Tasks" smart button on the requirement shows how many tasks exist and opens them. On tasks, a "Business Requirement" field (and a read-only Deliverable field) is added to the form, list and search views, with a group-by filter, so tasks can also be linked to a requirement by hand.
