AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0

Lets you choose a default delivery method per company in the Sales settings, so every new partner automatically gets that delivery method filled in.

This module adds a setting to the Sales configuration screen where you can pick a default delivery method for partners. The setting is company-specific, so each company in a multi-company database can have its own default.

  • Where it appears: in the Sales settings form, right after the existing delivery section, under the label "Partners Default Delivery Method". A building icon indicates the value is company-specific.
  • What it does: when the setting is saved, the chosen delivery method is stored as the default value for the "Delivery Method" field on partners (res.partner, field property_delivery_carrier_id). As a result, any newly created partner will have that delivery method pre-filled.
  • Business rule: the default is applied per company, so switching companies in Odoo shows and uses the default of the active company.
  • Areas touched: the Sales configuration screen (res.config.settings) and the partner record, through the standard delivery carrier field. No new menus, reports, or scheduled actions are added.
