Difference between the Odoo 13.0 CE Feature
Since Odoo V13, a limited "mass Editing feature" is available in Odoo CE.
This module provides the following extra features that are not in the Core for the time being:
- Possibility to mass edit many fields in a single action
- Possibility to add a group to limit the usage of this function to given people
- Possibility to filter the items the user can mass update
- Possibility to mass edit any fields with any widget. (For exemple color fields, image fields, etc...)
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0Lets users update the same field on many records at once. You configure a 'Mass Edit' server action on any model, choose the fields, then select records in a list and apply the change in one wizard.
This module adds a new type of server action called 'Mass Edit Records'. On a server action form you get two extra tabs: 'Fields', where you list the fields to be edited (with an optional widget and an option to keep the field's domain), and 'Message', where you can write a note that will be shown in the wizard.
When the action runs, a pop-up wizard opens. It shows how many selected records will be processed and warns you if some records cannot be processed. For each configured field you choose an operation: Set, Remove (or Add/Remove for many-to-many fields), then enter the new value. An 'Apply' button writes the values to all selected records.
Business rules and behaviours shown in the code: - Fields must belong to the same model as the server action, otherwise a validation error is raised. - System fields and reference/function fields cannot be chosen. - Many-to-many fields default to a tags widget, and image/logo fields default to an image widget. - A 'write record by record' option writes each record separately so errors name the failing record. - Removing a value on a translatable field also deletes its translations.
It touches ir.actions.server, adds the models mass.editing.line and mass.editing.wizard, and is available to all internal users for the wizard, while configuring the lines is restricted to system administrators.
