The challenge

Standard Odoo 17 lacked specific capabilities the business ran on: duplicating a product should copy its BOM and pricelists, sensitive apps needed a passcode lock, customers needed to change quantities on portal quotations, documents needed product images, internal followers shouldn't receive customer invoice emails, out-of-stock products needed shop visibility rules, sales and pickings needed multi-record Excel exports.

The solution

Each gap became a small, separate module: none touching Odoo core: deep product duplication, App Lock, portal quotation quantity updates, zero-quantity shop visibility and minimum cart rules, Dymo label printing from sales orders, product images across sales orders, invoices and delivery slips, invoice email privacy, MRP detail reports with cancellation restricted to managers, styled multi-record Excel exports and drag-and-drop email attachments.

How we built it

• Developed and configured core system architecture in Odoo 17.
• Implemented product duplication enhancements to automatically replicate BOMs and pricelists.
• Built an App Lock security module featuring passcode protection for sensitive apps and menus.
• Enabled customer portal users to update quotation item quantities directly online.
• Configured eCommerce options for zero-quantity product displays and minimum cart quantity rules.
• Integrated Dymo barcode label printing directly from Sales Orders.
• Added automated product image rendering across Sales Orders, Invoices, and Delivery Slips.
• Implemented custom invoice email privacy logic to restrict internal followers from receiving customer emails.
• Created MRP details reports and restricted Manufacturing Order cancellations to MRP managers.
• Developed multi-record styled Excel report exports for Sales Orders, Invoices, and Stock Pickings.
• Integrated drag-and-drop email attachments using Mail Drop Target.
• Configured custom security rules for salesperson-based contact visibility and app access control.
