auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Lets you record a legal form (company type) on company contacts in Odoo, and manage the list of available legal forms with their abbreviations.
This module adds a new field called Legal Form on contact records, but it only appears when the contact is marked as a company. It is placed right after the Tags field on the contact form, so you can pick the legal form of a business partner (for example a public limited company or a limited liability company) directly from the contact card.
A new configuration screen is added under the Contacts settings menu, named Company Types. There you can create, edit and delete the legal forms available for selection. Each legal form has a Title (the full name) and an Abbreviation (a short code). The list and search screens show both the title and the abbreviation, and the title is translatable, so you can maintain it in several languages.
Business rules shown by the code: - The Title of a legal form is mandatory. - Two legal forms cannot share the same Title; Odoo blocks duplicates with the message "Partner Company Type already exists!". - Regular users can only read the list of legal forms; only partner managers can create, modify or delete them.
The module touches the contact model (res.partner) and introduces a new model for legal forms (res.partner.company.type). A demo legal form, Anonymous Company (AC), is provided for testing.
