Introduction

The Generic Security Restriction module for Odoo provides a powerful and flexible way to control user visibility across menus, fields, actions, and buttons. Whether you need to hide specific menus, restrict access to certain actions or field elements, or tailor visibility per user or group, this module equips your Odoo instance with granular access control beyond default behavior.

Key Features

  • Hide menus and submenus from selected security groups or individual users

  • Restrict window actions, contextual server actions, and report/print form access

  • Hide or make fields readonly based on security group using the Fields Security tab

  • Remove stat buttons (e.g., oe_stat_button) from views for specific groups

  • Override Many2one field parameters (no_open, no_create, no_quick_create, no_create_edit) directly via user interface

  • Apply domain-based restrictions to any model for designated users or groups for fine-tuned data access

Benefits

  • Empowers administrators with fine-grained control over UI elements and workflows

  • Enhances interface clarity by hiding irrelevant menus and actions per role

  • Strengthens data security through tailored field visibility and read-only settings

  • Minimizes errors by preventing unauthorized interactions with critical fields or actions

  • Streamlines access management without modifying core code or views
