This module makes the timezone of Ethiopia the default timezone for users and partners.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Sets the Africa/Addis_Ababa timezone as the default for contacts and switches the built-in admin users to that timezone, so dates and times in Odoo follow Ethiopian local time.
This module changes the default timezone used in Odoo to Africa/Addis_Ababa (Ethiopia).
- New contacts created in Odoo start with the Ethiopian timezone already filled in, instead of being left empty. This applies to the contact/partner record (
res.partner), which is the shared record behind customers, vendors and users.
- When the module is installed, the two standard Odoo users (the main administrator and the admin user) are updated to use the Ethiopian timezone. This is done once at installation and is not overwritten afterwards, so users can still change their own timezone later.
There are no new menus, screens, buttons or reports. The module does not add any checks, restrictions, emails or scheduled jobs. It only changes default values and updates the timezone of the existing administrator accounts.
Because the timezone is stored on the contact record, it affects how dates and times are displayed for any user or partner whose timezone is set this way, across all Odoo apps that show date/time values.
