auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Makes the start date and deadline of projects editable and visible, and shows the project deadline on the project kanban card and the project dates on the task form.
This module extends the standard Project app so that the project's start date and deadline are no longer hidden or read-only.
- On the project form, the start date and deadline fields are added to the settings area, so users can set or change them.
- On the project kanban view, the project deadline is displayed under the customer name. If the deadline is already in the past, the date is shown in red to warn that the project is overdue.
- On the task form, two new read-only fields appear right after the task deadline: the project start date and the project deadline. They are linked to the project, so they always show the dates of the project the task belongs to.
The module only touches project.project and project.task. It does not add menus, reports, emails or scheduled actions. Its purpose is purely to make project dates visible and editable where users work.
