New functionality added to Odoo
This update adds a dedicated filter to help users quickly find overdue invoices. It improves day-to-day accounting workflows by reducing manual searching and making follow-up on late payments more efficient.
Original PR description
I think this filter would be very usefull for users of Odoo.
Odoo now marks modules that were brought in through the import module tool. This helps businesses identify and export custom SaaS customizations so they can be tested separately before reuse or deployment.
Original PR description
Sets a boolean field 'imported ' to True on a module if it was imported from the 'base_import_module' module. We need something like this for instance to export all customizations made for a SaaS instance to be able to test run tests on them separately.
Enhancements to existing features
This update improves several Odoo setup and navigation screens so users land in the right place after installing apps and see clearer labels. It also tidies accounting configuration options, employee forms, module naming, and a few visual details to make day-to-day administration easier.
