AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0

After a barcode is scanned in a form, this module automatically clicks the button marked for automatic entry, so users do not have to press it manually.

This module changes how barcode scanning behaves in Odoo forms. When a barcode is scanned and processed, the system looks for a button on the screen that has been marked for automatic entry and clicks it for the user.

  • It works inside any Odoo form that uses the standard barcode scanning feature.
  • The automatic click happens right after the scanned barcode has been processed.
  • No new menus, screens, or reports are added.
  • No business rules, checks, or scheduled actions are added.
  • It only affects the user interface behaviour of forms that already support barcode scanning.

The module depends on the standard barcodes module and adds a small script and a style file to the backend assets. It does not create or change any database models. The automatic click is triggered on elements with the class barcode-automatic-entry, which must already exist in the form for the feature to have an effect.
