auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0Sets the country of the main company to France when installed, so that the French localisation can be applied automatically by the accounting module.
This is a small setup module with no screens, menus or buttons of its own. When it is installed, it simply changes one piece of company information: the country of the main company record (base.main_company) is set to France.
- The change is applied through a data record on the company model (
res.company), so it happens automatically at installation time. - The country value is taken from the standard France country record (
base.fr). - The data is marked as not updated (
noupdate), so the value is not overwritten on later module updates.
Why this matters: the accounting localisation module uses the company's country to decide which chart of accounts and localisation to install. By setting the country to France first, this module makes sure the French chart of accounts is applied to the main company when the accounting module is installed afterwards.
It has no effect if the accounting module is already installed, because the localisation would already have been chosen. It only depends on the base module and adds no new models, fields, reports, emails or scheduled actions. In short, it is a one-time configuration helper for French companies.
