[IMP] timesheet_grid: use the new `message_partner_ids` for timesheets

Enterprisemastertimesheet_grid

Timesheet access rules have been simplified by using a newer searchable participant field. This keeps the same access behavior while making the underlying security setup easier to maintain.

Original PR description

[IMP] account_inter_company_rules: use helper method available in ana…

PR #68098

[IMP] l10n_*: Remove references from tax_included taxes

PR #68310

Enterprisemasterl10n_br_avataxl10n_pe_reports

Tax-included taxes have been deactivated, so related localization settings were cleaned up to avoid assigning obsolete tax references. This helps keep Brazilian AvaTax and Peruvian reporting configurations aligned with current tax behavior and reduces the risk of incorrect setup data.

Original PR description

Due to the deactivation of tax_included taxes, we have to remove these lines from the assignation of the field.

[IMP] sign: disable "Add on all pages" button for single-page PDFs

PR #67237

Enterprisemastersign

The Sign app no longer offers the unnecessary “Add on all pages” option when a PDF has only one page. This reduces confusion and streamlines placing initials on simple documents.

Original PR description

Before this commit, when uploading a single-page PDF and dropping the "initial" field, the wizard still offered the "Add on all pages" option, which is not useful for a one-page document.

After this commit, the "Add on all pages" button will be disabled if the document has only one page.
Also in case if there is only page we directly add field into pdf without hassle to choose signer.

[IMP] l10n_in_reports_gstr: adapt test to new staggered years notation

PR #68354

Enterprisemasterl10n_in_reports_gstr

This update aligns India GSTR report tests with the new way fiscal years spanning two calendar years are shown in document names. It helps ensure generated report names remain accurate and consistent when the fiscal year crosses year boundaries.

[IMP] stock_barcode: sligthly increase camera size to take full width

[IMP] stock_barcode_barcodelookup: close notification on button click

PR #68352

Enterprisemasterstock_barcode_barcodelookup

When users create a new product from a barcode lookup, the notification now closes as soon as they tap the action button. This frees up screen space on mobile so they can start editing the new product immediately instead of waiting for the message to disappear.

Original PR description

When you want to create a new product from barcode lookup you want to edit it directly. However on mobile the notification take a lot of place on the screen and you have to wait for the timeout before edition

Resolved issues and error corrections

[FIX] hr_payroll: Make is_refund readonly if already used in payslips

PR #66659

Enterprisemasterhr_payroll

This fix prevents users from changing the refund status of a salary attachment once it has already been used in payslips. This helps protect payroll accuracy by avoiding inconsistent records after payroll processing has begun.

[FIX] product_barcodelookup: missing image traceback

PR #68309

Enterprisemasterproduct_barcodelookup

Scanning a barcode found in the lookup service no longer fails when the product has no image available. The product can still be created or updated from the barcode data, with the missing image simply skipped.

Original PR description

Issue: Traceback is encountered when scanning a barcode that is available in the
barcodelookup api but doesn't have image. Example barcode: 9780349410159

- Traceback: `AttributeError: 'dict' obiect has no attribute 'content'`

This is because of the inconsistent return value of `barcode_lookup_request`. If it succeeds, it returns a `Response` object but if not, it returns a `dict`.

To fix the traceback, we check if the fetching of image failed by checking if the returned value is a `dict`. If so, we just skip the image assignment for the product.
