This module extends the Odoo CE product module to fill gaps present in the module.

New Menu items

By default, when installing product module, a lot of menu items are not created and are available only if other module are installed. For exemple:

Manage product categories requires to install stock module, that creates the menu entry _"Inventory / Configuration / Product / Product Categories"_.
Manage product tags requires to install sale_management module, that creates the menu entry _"Sale / Configuration / Products / Tags"_.

This module so creates a new main menu item named 'Product' that provides all menu entries to see and manage product, attributes, pricelists, Units of Measure, etc. So that all the product configuration is available in a unique place.

New Access Rights

By default, to create product, attributes, pricelist, categories, User should be member of a group that adds a lot of rights, like 'Inventory / Manager' or 'Sale / Manager'.

This module adds new Access rules to fine-tune access rights, creating the following rules:

_"Product Creation"_: Allow to create Products (product.template), Variants (product.product), Product Template Attribute Lines (product.template.attribute.line) and Product Template Attribute Values (product.template.attribute.value)
_"Product Attribute Creation"_: Allow to create Attributes (product.attribute) and Values (product.attribute.value).
_"Product Tag Creation"_: Allow to create Tags (product.tag)
_"Product Category Creation"_: Allow to create Categories (product.category)
_"Product Supplier Pricelist Creation"_: Allow to create Supplier Pricelists (product.supplierinfo)
_"Unit of Measure Creation"_: Allow to create Unit of Measures (uom.uom) and Unit of Measures Categories (uom.category)

auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Adds a new 'Products' main menu in Odoo that groups product, attribute, pricelist, category, tag and unit of measure screens in one place, and adds new access groups so selected users can create products and related data without being full managers.

This module fills gaps in the standard Product app by creating a single 'Products' main menu with two sections.

Under 'Products' users find Products (product templates), Product Variants, Product Attributes and Pricelists. Product Variants, Attributes and Pricelists only appear for users who already have the matching standard rights.
Under 'Configuration' users find Product Categories, Product Tags and Units of Measure.

It also adds new access groups: Product Creation, Product Attribute Creation, Product Tag Creation, Product Category Creation, Product Supplier Pricelist Creation and Units of Measure Creation. These groups give create, edit and delete rights on the related records (product.template, product.product, product.attribute, product.attribute.value, product.template.attribute.line, product.template.attribute.value, product.tag, product.category, product.supplierinfo and uom.uom).

The existing Product Manager group is renamed to 'Product Manager' and automatically includes all these new creation groups, so a product manager gets every right in one click. The Units of Measure Creation group also implies the standard unit of measure group.

No new business rules, computations or scheduled jobs are added; the module only changes menus and access rights.
