AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Lets you share saved filters with several users at once, either by picking individual users or whole user groups, instead of adding each person one by one.

This module extends the standard saved filters (the custom filters you create in search boxes) so they can be shared with more than one person easily.

On the filter form, two new fields appear right after the existing list of users: "Available for Users" where you can tag individual users, and "Available for Groups" where you can tag user groups. Both fields are also shown in the list of saved filters and can be used in the search panel to find filters.

Behind the scenes, the module keeps the standard sharing list in sync: whenever you save a filter, or change the users or groups it is available for, Odoo automatically recalculates the people who can see it by combining the individually selected users with all members of the selected groups. So you do not have to maintain the same list twice.

It touches the saved filters model (ir.filters) and adds the two new fields there, plus small additions to the filter form, list and search views. No new menus or reports are added; the change is visible wherever saved filters are managed in Odoo.
