This update streamlines several Odoo app menus by moving single report or configuration actions up one level, reducing unnecessary clicks. It also renames selected labels and menu entries in Membership, Events, HR, and related apps to make navigation clearer for everyday users.

Accounting screens now show a clearer tip about using Ctrl+Enter as a shortcut, matching guidance added elsewhere in Odoo. The update also standardizes the tip styling and fixes small wording issues, making the interface more consistent and easier to understand.
Original PR description
A similar protip has been added in the enterprise 'account_reports' module. We took this opportunity to rename the class protip into o_protip and to apply this kind of style with standard attributes and classes + to correct typos
Point of Sale receipts now print in a right-to-left layout for languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian. This improves readability and customer experience in markets where these languages are used, while also standardizing language direction settings across Odoo.

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.

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, ...)
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.Users now see a helpful tip explaining that Ctrl+Enter can process all customer statement follow-ups at once. This makes the shortcut easier to discover and can save time for teams handling customer follow-up workflows.
Original PR description
ctrl+enter allows the user to process all the customers statements followup at the same time
