AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Adds a new 'Full Administrator' project access group and turns the existing project manager group into a 'Restricted Administrator' that can only see and manage the projects it owns.

This module changes how project access rights work in Odoo. It renames the standard project manager access group to 'Restricted Administrator' and removes the broad rules that previously let those users see and manage every project and every task.

  • A new access group called 'Full Administrator' is created, placed under the Project access rights section, and it inherits the restricted administrator rights. Only members of this new group keep the original wide visibility over all projects and tasks.
  • A new record rule named 'Project: Can manage its own projects' is added for the restricted administrators. It limits them to projects where they are the responsible person (user_id), so they can manage their own projects, including private ones created with the default visibility.
  • When the module is uninstalled, the original setup is restored: the 'Full Administrator' group is removed and the standard project manager group gets back its original name and its full project and task rules.

The module touches the project access groups and the project record rules. It does not add menus, buttons, reports or scheduled actions.
