AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0

Adds a company-level setting that makes the project mandatory on tasks. When enabled, Odoo blocks saving a task without a project and shows an error message.

This module adds an option to the Project settings screen called "Project required on tasks". The setting is stored per company, so each company can decide independently whether tasks must always belong to a project.

When the option is switched on, Odoo checks every task whenever its project is set or changed. If a task has no project, saving is stopped and the user sees the message "A project has not been selected for the task." This applies both when creating a new task and when editing an existing one.

Where it appears: - Project settings screen, next to the existing project configuration options, with a checkbox and a short explanation.

What it changes: - A new company setting controls the behaviour. - A validation rule on tasks enforces the requirement.

It touches the task model project.task, the company model res.company and the settings model res.config.settings. No new menus, reports or scheduled actions are added.
