Product Category Description
This module adds a field 'description' on product category level.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0Adds a free-text description field to product categories, so users can record extra notes or details about each category directly in Odoo.
This module extends the standard product category form so that each category can carry a short text description.
- On the product category form (the same screen used to create and edit categories under Inventory or Sales configuration), a new "Description" field appears right after the parent category field.
- The field is a simple text field, so users can type any short note, reference or explanation they want to keep with the category.
- The value is empty by default and is not copied when a category is duplicated, so each category keeps its own description.
No menus, buttons, reports, checks, automatic computations, emails or scheduled actions are added by this module. It only touches the product.category model and its form view. Everything else about product categories, such as products, pricing or inventory rules, is unchanged.
