Resolved issues and error corrections
Text fields in spreadsheets are now treated as plain text, preventing long numeric-looking values such as serial or lot numbers from being converted into scientific notation when exported to Excel. This helps users preserve important identifiers exactly as entered.
Original PR description
Steps to reproduce: - install documents and inventory - create a Lot/Serial Number which is a number e.g. "89787897894984" - insert the Lot/Serial Number list in a spreadsheet - download the excel file "File > Download" => "89787897894984" is displayed as "8.97879E+13" This issue is present in all versions. But it can only be fixed very easily starting from 17.1 where we introduced the plain text format "@". The report ticket is for saas-17.2 (according to James (jale)), so we go for the easy fix and don't backport in all version. opw-4034386 --- I confirm I have signed the CLA and read the PR guidelines at www.odoo.com/submit-pr
