This change tightens who can view or manage internal configuration and metadata across Odoo. It reduces the risk of sensitive technical information being exposed to regular users while preserving needed access for administrators and relevant teams.

Restrict the access rights of internal models that may leak sensitive information.

This update strengthens how several business apps access and manage internal configuration data. It helps reduce the risk of unauthorized access while keeping integrations like tax, email push, VoIP, eBay sales, subscriptions, and website tools working correctly.

Warehouse users can now scan product packaging barcodes to automatically add the packaged quantity during pickings and inventory counts. Delivery packaging barcodes can also trigger the correct packing action, helping teams process shipments faster and with fewer manual quantity entries.

This update redesigns the sales dashboard so sales channels are easier to read, manage, and act on. Managers get configurable dashboard graphs and more relevant action links for direct sales, website sales, and point-of-sale activity, helping teams focus on items needing attention.

The main idea of the task is make the sales dashboard readable, usable and used.

This update introduces clearer selection tools for building filters and choosing fields in Odoo. It makes it easier for users configuring automated actions, gamification goals, and mass mailings to define the right records without relying on technical domain syntax.

Product packaging is now managed more consistently across sales, stock, purchase, and delivery workflows, including support for variant-specific packaging and packaging barcodes. Delivery carrier information is propagated earlier in warehouse flows, helping packing teams choose the right package type while avoiding unnecessary carrier calls.

This change improves Odoo's configuration flow by allowing settings to be applied programmatically without requiring users to go through the setup wizard. It also includes a collection of fixes and translation updates across accounting, inventory, manufacturing, website quotes, and payment areas, reducing errors and improving day-to-day reliability.
