This module Extends the existing functionality of Odoo Products (One product - One Category) to One product -\> Many Categories
Note: This module was built generically but in focus of the Magento Odoo connector Note 2: The additional categories are only for classification and does not affect other operations
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Lets users assign several extra categories to a product, in addition to its single main category. The extra categories are only for classification and do not change stock, pricing or other operations.
This module changes how products can be classified in Odoo. Normally a product belongs to one main category only; with this module you can also tag it with any number of additional categories.
Where it appears: - On the product form (both the full product form and the template-only form), a new "Extra Categories" field is shown right after the main category field. - The field uses tag-style selection, so you can pick several categories and see them as tags.
What it adds:
- A new field on the product template, categ_ids, labelled "Extra Categories", linked to product categories.
- The existing main category field stays as it is; the extra categories are separate and optional.
Business behaviour: - The extra categories are purely for classification. The code adds no checks, no automatic computations, no restrictions and no effect on stock, prices, sales or accounting. - No new menus or screens are created; the feature is only visible inside the product forms.
Areas touched: - Product templates and product variants, through the inherited product forms.
Because the module only adds a field and places it on the forms, nothing else in Odoo changes automatically.
