The website editor now detects when a browser cannot support image filters and disables that option instead of showing an error. This improves editing reliability for users on systems where WebGL is unavailable, such as some recent Chrome on Linux setups.
Original PR description
On recent versions of Chrome for Linux (v140+), the old SwiftShader software fallback for WebGL has been removed. As a result, new window.WebGLImageFilter() now throws if no GPU context is available, typically when WebGL is disabled or unsupported. Since the application cannot enable WebGL from JavaScript, this commit improves the user experience by detecting the absence of a WebGL context early and disabling image filters in edit mode. Instead of raising a traceback, the editor now skips the filter feature and can optionally display a friendly message explaining that WebGL is required to use image filters. This avoids runtime errors and ensures a more robust behavior on platforms where WebGL is unavailable. task-5117584 Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#232009 Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#229705
Odoo now supports Uruguay's reduced VAT category for applicable sales, helping businesses meet local electronic invoicing and tax reporting requirements. The update adds the needed tax reporting grid and ensures reduced-rate VAT amounts are represented correctly in official tax data.

To fully comply with regulatory requirements, we need to support an additional category called "Reduced Tax Rate" when a product line has a Reduced VAT rate (e.g., 20%) for sales of goods and services to final consumers when payment is made by debit card or electronic money instrument (and other specific reductions in similar cases).
1. Detecting "Reduced Tax Rate":
* Identify product lines with a VAT rate that is neither 0% (exempt), 10% (minimum), nor 22% (basic). Any VAT rate outside these three should be considered "Reduced Tax Rate".
2. Modifying XML Output:
* In the <Totales> section of the XML, include the total amount of VAT under the "Reduced Tax Rate" in the <MntIVAOtra> tag.
* Example: xml <MntIVAOtra>140</MntIVAOtra> (where 140 corresponds to the VAT calculated at the reduced tax rate, e.g., 20%).
* For each product line using "Reduced Tax Rate," set the <IndFact> tag to 4: xml <IndFact>4</IndFact>
*Ensure the total amount reflects the base amount plus the VAT under "Reduced Tax Rate".
3. Tax Grid for Configuration:
*Add a new tax grid called Sales Reduced VAT to be used for the tax configuration of the "Reduced Tax Rate."
* This will ensure proper reporting and consistency in tax declarations.
* The new tax grid should be selectable when configuring other taxes.
Odoo Implementation Considerations:
* The tax computation logic in Odoo already supports defining taxes at different rates.
* Adapt the XML generation logic to check for product lines with a non-standard VAT rate and apply the necessary modifications. Ensure the final totals in the XML align with Odoo's computed tax amounts.

Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#221073Uruguayan electronic invoices can now identify and report VAT rates outside the standard exempt, minimum, and basic rates. This improves tax declaration accuracy by including reduced-rate VAT totals in the official invoice XML and adding a dedicated tax grid for configuration.

Forward-Port-Of: odoo/enterprise#91392Peruvian customer records no longer require a ZIP code, reflecting that ZIP codes are not commonly used in Peru. This makes customer data entry easier and helps avoid unnecessary validation issues for Peruvian addresses.
Original PR description
As ZIP codes are not widely used in Peru, the requirement for a ZIP code to be provided for a Peruvian customer should not be present. task-5012593 --- I confirm I have signed the CLA and read the PR guidelines at www.odoo.com/submit-pr Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#223157
Payment terminals connected through Odoo IoT will no longer be automatically registered for event handling, because they already manage their own events. This reduces unnecessary background handling and aligns terminal behavior with devices that send events independently.
Original PR description
As for printers that can send event whenever they want, payment terminals handle event themselves. We then removed auto event registering for payment terminals. odoo/enterprise#97617
Point of Sale payment terminals connected through an IoT Box now use the same communication service as other IoT actions. This enables more connection methods, including WebRTC and websockets, which can improve reliability and responsiveness when processing payments.
Original PR description
As for any other actions sent from the db to the IoT Box, we updated payments terminals logic to use the `iot_http` service in order to allow them using webrtc and websocket in addition to longpolling. Backport of odoo/enterprise#92896 (`iot_http` service refactoring only, to allow listening without sending action) Backport of odoo/enterprise#96634 odoo/odoo#232282
This change makes Odoo's automated test browser shutdown more robust when Chrome reports rare shutdown errors. It helps prevent stuck test builds and lingering browser processes, improving runbot reliability without affecting normal users.

In some instances, Chrome can apparently fail CDTP calls with "Execution context was destroyed". According to the internet this mostly happens because of navigation events, here it's not clear if this is in response to `stop`-ing the page, or a pre-existing navigation directive interfereing with the stop-ing of the browser. I tried reproducing locally under the assumption that the `Page.stopLoading` might be the cause but got nowhere[^1]. This issue seems extremely infrequent, and in most cases is but a minor annoyance, an error appears on the corresponding build, and that's it. However if the error occurs during `ChromeBrowser.stop` then the browser is not terminated, which on runbot prevents the docker image from shutting down properly, and leaves zombie builds. Therefore make `ChromeBrowser.stop` more resilient to errors in the initial section so that we do terminate the browser even if the "graceful CDTP shutdown" fails. While at it, add a fallback to kill the browser if it does not terminate gracefully. https://runbot.odoo.com/odoo/error/233442 [^1]: and the error only happening in 18.0 and later when `Page.stopLoading` was present long before that makes it likely the proximal cause is in the code being run, especially as all the errors sampled from the builds list are related to pos and the failure are immediately preceded by ongoing HTTP requests Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#232222 Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#232060
Swedish batch payments can now include both international IBAN accounts and local BBAN, Bankgiro, or Plusgiro accounts in the same batch. When mixed account types are used, the system generates a ZIP file containing separate XML payment files, reducing manual splitting and making payment processing more flexible.
Original PR description
This commit add a new behaviour for batch payments in Sweden. Before this commit: batch payment with mixed payment for iban and bban/bankgiro/plusgiro wasn't allowed After this commit: now if the user create a batch payment with both type of account, we create a zip file with 2 xml files, one for iban and one for bban/bankgiro/plusgiro.

Luxembourg payroll parameters have been updated to reflect 2025 minimum social salary and related tax credit changes. This helps businesses calculate employee payroll more accurately and stay aligned with official Luxembourg requirements.
