PR #8100

[IMP] event: allow changing date_begin and date_end

PR #8140

Coremastereventweb_tipMEDIUM

Event organizers can now change an event's start and end dates and use an email template to inform participants about the reschedule. This helps reduce confusion when event schedules change and keeps attendees updated without manually writing notifications.

[IMP] mrp,purchase,stock: Default lead times set to 0

PR #10390

CoremastermrppurchasestockMEDIUM

Odoo now starts standard manufacturing, purchasing, and inventory lead times at 0 days by default. This makes delivery and receipt dates easier to understand for businesses that buy and sell on the same day without advanced scheduling.

Original PR description

Lead times are too advanced for most of our online users. Most of the companies just
buy and sell and don't manage scheduling. As an example, when they do MTO, they
purchase the same day they sold.

The problem with current lead time is that users don't understand the dates produced
on delivery orders and receptions. They even have receptions in the past, and they
don't understand why. (customer lead time default to 7 and vendor lead time to 1,
as well as security days, ...)

[IMP] crm: Restructure and Rephrase crm planner following fgi advises

PR #10616

CoremastercrmMEDIUM

The CRM planner has been reorganized into clearer business sections, making it easier for users to navigate setup topics like sales flow, pipeline, pricing, and reporting. It also adds clearer guidance on using incoming emails to generate leads, helping teams understand how prospects can automatically become opportunities in Odoo.

Original PR description

- Restructure the menus this way:
  Sales Flow
  Pipeline
  Proposal
  Deployment
    Incoming emails
    Customers
  Products
  Prices
  Reporting
  Customizations
- Add a short intro about leads in Incoming emails (why using leads?
  first contact, contact forms) -> in incoming email menu

"There are several ways for your company to generate leads with Odoo CRM.
One of them is using your company's generic email address as a trigger
to create a new lead in the system. In Odoo, each one of your sales teams
is linked to its own email address from which prospects can reach them.
For example, if the personal email address of your Direct team is
direct@mycompany.example.com, every email sent when a new prospect
contacts you will automatically create a new opportunity into the sales team.

That's the easiest way to integrate Odoo with third party apps.
