This module adds the possibility to mark contacts as auto-archive. Periodically an scheduled action will run and archive the auto-archive contacts.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Lets you flag contacts as "auto-archive" so Odoo automatically archives them later. A scheduled job runs every 15 days and archives every contact marked this way.
This module adds a simple checkbox on the contact form so you can mark a contact for automatic archiving. The checkbox is called "auto_archive" and appears on the standard contact form, next to the tags and company fields. Changes to it are tracked in the contact's chatter history.
A scheduled action named "Contact: Archive Contacts" runs automatically every 15 days. When it runs, it looks for all contacts where the auto-archive checkbox is ticked, archives them, and then clears the checkbox so they are not processed again.
- Where it appears: the contact form (res.partner), in the same area as tags and company.
- What it does automatically: archives flagged contacts on a recurring schedule and resets the flag afterwards.
- What it touches: the res.partner model only, plus the scheduled job that drives the archiving.
There is no separate menu or report; everything happens from the contact form and the background job. Archiving hides the contact from normal use without deleting it, and you can still find archived contacts by filtering for them.
