AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0

Disables the web browser's autocomplete suggestions on Odoo date picker input fields, so previously typed dates are no longer offered by the browser.

This module changes how date fields behave in the Odoo web interface. Normally, when a user types into a date field, the browser may show a dropdown of previously entered values (its autocomplete memory). This module turns that browser behaviour off for Odoo date pickers.

  • It extends the standard date picker widget used across Odoo screens, so the change applies wherever a date is entered with a picker, not just in one specific form.
  • The only visible effect is that the browser no longer proposes old values when the user clicks or types in a date field; the date picker itself and all normal date entry still work as before.
  • No new menus, buttons, reports, models or database tables are added, and no business rules, checks or automatic computations are introduced.
  • It does not change stored data or how dates are saved; it only affects the browser-side suggestion list.

The module depends on the core web module and is purely a user-interface adjustment. Because it works through the shared date picker template, it applies consistently to date fields throughout Odoo rather than to a single screen.
