AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Adds a "Duplicate with subtasks" action on tasks that copies a task together with all of its child subtasks, at any depth.

This module adds a server action called "Duplicate with subtasks" on the task model project.task. It appears in the Action menu (the cog/action dropdown) available on tasks, so users can select one or several tasks and choose it to duplicate them.

When used, the selected task is copied and every child subtask is copied as well, recursively, so grandchildren and deeper levels are also duplicated. Each copied subtask is re-attached to the copy of its parent, keeping the same task hierarchy.

After the duplication: - If only one task was duplicated, Odoo opens the new task in a form view directly in edit mode. - If several tasks were duplicated, Odoo shows a list view filtered to only the newly created tasks.

No new fields, menus, reports, emails or scheduled jobs are added. The module only extends the existing project.task model with the duplication behaviour and registers the server action that triggers it.
