Introduction
The Restrict Create Product module for Odoo provides a security layer for product catalog management by preventing customers (portal or website users) from creating new product records. In multi-user or B2B environments, it is essential to maintain control over product data and avoid unapproved entries. By enforcing permission rules, this module ensures only internal staff can add or edit product entries, thus preserving data consistency and enhancing administrative control.
Key Features
Block creation of new product records by customer or portal users
Apply restriction rules only to specified user groups (e.g. portal, public)
Allow internal users (staff) full product creation permissions
Maintain default Odoo behavior for editing and viewing products, while limiting creation
Benefits
Protects product catalog from unauthorized additions by customers
Maintains clean, controlled product data managed by internal teams
Reduces risk of clutter or erroneous product entries from external users
Improves system integrity and business trust in eCommerce or portal environments
