AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Adds a reusable confirmation pop-up that other modules can call from code. It shows a message and, when the user confirms, either closes the window or runs a chosen method on selected records.

This is a technical building block for developers, not a standalone business feature. It provides a confirmation pop-up window that other parts of Odoo can trigger when they need the user to approve an action before it continues.

  • The pop-up shows a message and two buttons: Confirm and Cancel. The Cancel button can be hidden by the calling code.
  • When the user confirms, the wizard can either simply close the window, or run a specific method on a set of records that were passed to it, using any parameters supplied by the caller.
  • If the records no longer exist, or the requested method is not found on that model, the user gets a clear error message instead of a silent failure.
  • The wizard is a transient record, so it is not kept permanently.

It appears only as a pop-up form; there is no menu for end users. Access is restricted to the Settings administrator group. It touches the confirmation.wizard model and can act on any model passed by the caller through res_model and res_ids.

Usage

Source · Odoo 16.0

To create configuration wizard:

Use confirm wizard which return method (return_type = method):

def change_address(self, address):
  # Confirmation wizard
  action = (
    self.env["confirmation.wizard"]
    .confirm_message(
      _("Do you want to change the partner's address?"),
      records=self.env["res.partner"].browse(1), # One or more records
      title="Confirm",
      method="change_address",
      callback_params={"address": address}
    )
  )
  if action:
    return action
  ... # Your code here

Use confirm wizard which does nothing and closes itself when clicking confirm (return_type = window_close):

def method(self):
  ...
  return (
    self.env["confirmation.wizard"]
    .with_context(hide_cancel=True)
    .confirm_no_action_message(
      message="Message",
      title="Notification"
    )
  )
