Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)
Hello,
We have the opportunity to start developing a basic LIMS module and its extensions within the OCA with 2 customers.
Since https://github.com/OCA/connector-lims seems to be empty and not used, I would like to rename it to "vertical-lims" and start documenting our effort there.
What do you think? Anyone interested?
Thank you!

Asunto: Re: Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)Hi Max
As you might know, I have a 10 years experience in LIMS market in France ;-)
Actually, the market is almost trusted by a unique very big medical company (www.dedalus.com).An opensource project would be a revolution indeed... but there's a looooot of work.I remember a talk at OXP2024, but it looked very 'vertical' and closed https://www.odoo.com/event/odoo-experience-2024-4662/track/where-labs-meet-their-match-introducing-the-first-fully-integrated-lims-in-odoo-6720
I know a guy (one of my employees in that life) who would be a killer on that project but he just join Centreon Company...
Let's discuss that at Liège Sunday eve ?
Cheers

Stock location state
Hello everyone,
I am using Odoo 18 and the inventory module to manage a stock of products stored in bulk in silos.
The requirement is about having a state on the stock location (empty, full, filling, empyting) and keeping the logs of the state changes, including the timestamp of when the filling/empyting starts and stops.
Do we have a solution for this? In previous versions?
Thank you!

Adding Job Dependency support in o13 queue_job module?
Dear contributors of the queue_job (v13.0) module,We are utilizing the Job Queue module in Odoo 13 to fulfill our asynchronous processing requirements. However, we have recently encountered a situation where we require support for Job Dependency.It appears that job dependency support was only introduced in the Job Queue starting from Odoo 14, however currently, we are unable to migrate to a higher version of Odoo immediately and are seeking Job Dependency support within Odoo 13.
If it is feasible for you to backport Job Dependency support from Odoo 14 to Odoo 13, that would represent the optimal solution for our needs?
Alternatively, we could consider modifying the Odoo 13 Job Queue code to incorporate Job Dependency ourselves, potentially using the same syntax as Odoo 14, however if we have to do it ourselves would you have any advice for us that would help, ex. was there a technical reason you started at v14, or you just had to start somewhere?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Re: Adding Job Dependency support in o13 queue_job module?
Hi,You have two options:1- Make the migration yourself (You can try to cherry-pick the changes and check if everything works fine)2- Pay a major contributor for doing this and ensuring that everything works perfectly.Just to be clear, the change was made on 12 and ported to 14, but it was never ported to 13. It shouldn't be a problem to do that.Kind regards,El mar, 26 ago 2025 a las 18:21, Gilbert Gagnon (<notifications@odoo-community.org>) escribió:Dear contributors of the queue_job (v13.0) module,We are utilizing the Job Queue module in Odoo 13 to fulfill our asynchronous processing requirements.

Community Contribution Statistics
Dear members,
I’m happy to share that the contribution statistics have been restored and are now published again in a public repository: https://github.com/OCA-contributors/monthly-statistics/. Also, there is another repository where the code used to do it is shared: https://github.com/OCA-contributors/contributors-statistics-generator. This way, everyone can explore the data, verify it, and even improve the tooling if needed.
I plan to publish the monthly results at the begining of each month. It has not been published inside OCA because I opened the topic several times, but there were some issues for doing it. So, I’ve started publishing it independently so the whole community can benefit. I will not publish it under Dixmit banner in order to keep it neutral and independent.
The goal is to celebrate our contributors and provide transparency on how our community is evolving. A few highlights:
- Our top contributors come from a broad range of companies and individuals, which shows the diversity and strength of our ecosystem.
- At the same time, our delegates and board composition reflects historical patterns, with a large share coming from just a few companies.
This contrast suggests an opportunity: as our contributor base diversifies, our governance could also evolve to better reflect the variety of people and organizations who make this association possible.
I’d like to open the conversation on:
- How can we keep contribution statistics as a regular, neutral resource?
- How can governance and community contributions stay closely connected?
- What other forms of transparency would help us all feel engaged?
A big thank-you to everyone who contributes code, reviews and energy.
Sincerely,Enric Tobella AlomarCEO & Founder

Whereas the rest of OCA basically did however they pleased in the anarchy (or, if you will, PSC-herded meritocracy) of Github.
Now, we are in a time where the OCA is facing complex problems and big tasks.
For complex problems, finding first consensus between 8 people with each their opinions and limited time to discuss, is already difficult, let alone that it's then necessary to get all the stakeholders on board also, for which the only official arenas are this monstrosity of a mailing list and the yearly event.
For big tasks, executors are needed, and there the tools currently are: RFQ's, some paid employees, volunteer workgroups, and enthusiastic individuals.
I don't think the solution is to be found in having new or more board members - I think the current board members should be wise enough, but:
1. They should not be the ones that make the big decisions, and neither should this mailinglist be - we need to make better use of the AGA or of delegate meetings, in order to make the tough calls with all stakeholders present. Then the Board has a clear mandate and mission.
2. They should be surrounded by enough people that can execute things, because the wiser they are (and you want Wise Men in your board), the less time they will have
3. They should not be such a large group. If you have less people, but each with a bit more time and energy available to respond quickly to pressing issues, it is easier to act.
So I think it's not about finding new Board members per se, although having like 2 new people with new energy is obviously nice; I think it's rather about having a lean, dedicated Board, a good decisionmaking structure, and all other work coordinated via workgroups and PSC teams.
In which case I'll personally also gladly step away from the Board, because I can make myself useful in the WG teams that I like, the PSC teams of the modules I like, and I can give my opinion and vote in an assembly, to proposals prepared partly by the Board and partly by stakeholding members themselves.
The above is just my observation/opinion. But I thought I'd share because it's distinctly different from "We need new Board members". If I am going to try and enthusiate people at the OCA days to become a volunteer, I'd rather try to get them to join a WG.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for sharing. I fully understand what you mean. I have been in the board and it is not easy. We both know that. It is quite easy to complain from the other side on the work done by the board, but we can be clear on one thing, you are doing a great job there and you all try to keep the OCA running. The same happens from the contributors, but from another perspective.
I also agree that the key is to ensure renewal by motivating more people to step forward. There have been years with several candidates and years with a small set of new possible board members, however. It is not easy to find people interested on the job.
For me, the point was never to accuse anyone of holding on to a seat (and I’m sorry if I gave you that impression). What matters is that we create space for fresh perspectives while also valuing the commitment of experienced members. Both are essential for a healthy balance. It is hard to find it, but we should do it for the sake of the OCA.
Best regards,

Hi Enric,
I honestly think that people running for the board of the OCA really want to devote a good junk of their time "to make Odoo mightier together" and help us all to succeed what we belive is our joint dreams instead of taking and keeping prestigous role just because.
Unfortunately many context factors don't render that pursue (i.e. being impactful AND successful on the Board) easy. If we have enough volontueers this year running and forming a new board, maybe you include again, with a really tough agenda and problems already on the line or insight (among as trivial stuff as financially sustain the OCA), i am happy to devote my OCA time from a back seat and let others do this job, not being indirectly accused for taking one of the precious seats again.
At least i would not have to take care anymore about things i DO NOT love nearly as much as contributing real community value to an overall healthy and motivated community (that was my initial motivation to run for the board).
The reality is, most of the work on the board has not been too much fun (especially lately) and am happy to hand things over to new people. Remember i personally tried to convince 5-6 newbies for the board last year out of which 1 (namely Ivan) was running and has been elected. Ivan did a great job and was a great value to the team so far. Same was Tom. So in order to move things into that direction we may organize a little on stage "running for the board" campaign next week in which volunteers can present themselfes and their agendas to the members around. What do you think ?

Hi Tom,
Sadly, I am unable to come this year for some personal reasons. I am sure that we can make an online meeting if you are interested.
Regarding the board, this has been a recurring topic in the community. What strikes me as odd is that while renewal is regularly encouraged, most former board members still run for re-election. In some cases, even when there were enough new candidates to fill the seats, the former members were all re-elected.
If we don’t intentionally make space for new candidates, it will be difficult to bring in fresh perspectives. I don’t have a definitive solution, but I believe it’s worth reflecting on how we can better encourage and support renewal.
I know that there is some new faces on the board (like you this year). I hope this trend continues.

In some cases, even when there were enough new candidates to fill the seats, the former members were all re-elected.
If we don’t intentionally make space for new candidates, it will be difficult to bring in fresh perspectives. I don’t have a definitive solution, but I believe it’s worth reflecting on how we can better encourage and support renewal.
I know that there is some new faces on the board (like you this year). I hope this trend continues.
Kind regards,

Re: Community Contribution Statistics
Hi Enric,
I honestly think that people running for the board of the OCA really want to devote a good junk of their time "to make Odoo mightier together" and help us all to succeed what we belive is our joint dreams instead of taking and keeping prestigous role just because.
Unfortunately many context factors don't render that pursue (i.e. being impactful AND successful on the Board) easy. If we have enough volontueers this year running and forming a new board, maybe you include again, with a really tough agenda and problems already on the line or insight (among as trivial stuff as financially sustain the OCA), i am happy to devote my OCA time from a back seat and let others do this job, not being indirectly accused for taking one of the precious seats again.
At least i would not have to take care anymore about things i DO NOT love nearly as much as contributing real community value to an overall healthy and motivated community (that was my initial motivation to run for the board).
The reality is, most of the work on the board has not been too much fun (especially lately) and am happy to hand things over to new people. Remember i personally tried to convince 5-6 newbies for the board last year out of which 1 (namely Ivan) was running and has been elected. Ivan did a great job and was a great value to the team so far. Same was Tom. So in order to move things into that direction we may organize a little on stage "running for the board" campaign next week in which volunteers can present themselfes and their agendas to the members around. What do you think ?
Best Frederik

updating weblate with po-files
Hello! We do some translating for the Odoo community and that's for Swedish in our case. Most projects and most modules don't have a sv.po file created. If such is missing, it's easy to just press the plus-sign, "+" and the sv.po-file is created. I can imagine it's the same procedure in any other language. It works fine...! At least the first two times! Then an error show, "Your request was rejected because you have performed too many operations recently. Please try again later." https://translation.odoo-community.org/projects/rest-framework-18-0/ As an example, the "rest-framework-18-0" contains seven modules and I can only create sv.po files for the first two modules. Then the error above will show. I have to do two more tomorrow. * * * * * OK, as for the rest-framwroek it's not really so important. We're using Weblate API and I need to try commands and the rest-framework it happens to be. My question is, who's in charge of these things and is it possible tp change the limit from 2 requests to unlimited requests? I believe it's a fair wish to be able to prepare sv.po files for all modules in a project! Please forward my letter and my wish to the person responsible for the limit! :-) regards, // Jakob -- Med vänlig hälsning / Best regards/ 顺祝商祺, Jakob Krabbe VERTEL AB | Jakob Krabbe | jakob.krabbe@vertel.se +46 (0)13 99 19 480 | +46 (0) 79-348 18 01 | vertel.se

Re: updating weblate with po-files
Helloa!
Thank you for the reply!
I'm all aware of the structure for OCA!
I posted this request earlier and also asked why the server was so demanding slow. The server issue was actually solved quite fast! Within two-three weeks!
New hardware and a better set-up! That was a big commitment for the involved parties!
All were happy!
This issue is on a much lighter scale! :-)
regards,
// jakob

Hello Jakob,
I think this issue was already submitted to the translation support project.
Please keep in mind that all the OCA infrastructure is managed by volunteers with limited availability, so things can take time.
Thank you for your understanding.

Re: OCA Annual General Assembly for 2025 - upcoming dates, will you apply as a delegate or board member this year?
Dear Rebecca,
I am writing to express my interest in becoming an OCA Delegate this year.
Becoming a Delegate (and potentially a Board member) would allow me and my team to contribute strategically, helping the OCA thrive in the years ahead.
On the technical side, the Binhex Cloud team has contributed extensively to the OCA ecosystem, including the Social Media App, AI Agents, Stock Barcode interface improvements, Canary Islands localization, and many other fixes and modules, often collaborating closely with other OCA members.
Through my personal work, I have focused on organization and participation in events, promoting the open-source philosophy, and fostering community engagement. My main focus as a Delegate would be to help the OCA become more relevant in the market, attracting implementers, contributors, and visibility worldwide.
I look forward to submitting my candidacy during the upcoming OCA Days and Odoo XP.
Warm regards,

Hello,You should contact Odoo Company, they organize the Odoo Community Days in India, not the OCA (and here you talk with the contributors mailing list of the OCA).Enjoy the event!Le mar. 12 août 2025 à 17:27, Mehul Kachchhava <notifications@odoo-community.org> a écrit :Dear Odoo Community Days Team,I hope this message finds you well.I am already registered for the "F&B Innovation Days" session on 13 August 2025 (2:00 PM – 6:00 PM) at Mahatma Mandir, Gandhinagar.As someone who is passionate about technology, business process automation, and learning from real industry leaders, I sincerely wish to attend the complete Odoo Community Days experience on both 13 and 14 August 2025 — including the morning sessions, exhibitions, and networking opportunities.Unfortunately, due to my current financial constraints, I am unable to purchase an additional Premium or CEO pass.If possible, I would be truly grateful for a complimentary upgrade, a volunteer role, or any alternative arrangement that would allow me to participate for the full day on both dates.Attending these sessions would be an invaluable learning experience for me, and I assure you I will make the most of this opportunity.

Help debugging "module not installable" from Runbot on module PR
Hi everyone,
(I posted a similar question "Install external dependency for runbot on PR" a while ago, but I've been able to research the situation better, so this question should be better focused. I also posted something similar to the Odoo Accounting Forum, but maybe it was too technical for it.)
We recently created a PR to Odoo core with a new module to support Andorran accounting: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/218851
There is one single Runbot check which fails, ci/template, in the child task "Testing migration from 17.0 to 18.0...", step "test-migration". The "Full test-migration logs" (see [1] for an example) under the gears icon shows a few warnings "module l10n_ad: not installable, skipped", then error "Some modules have inconsistent states, some dependencies may be missing: ['l10n_ad']". It shows no extra hints on why the module failed to load. I thought it may be some issue with dependencies, but the standard "l10n_es" module has the same dependencies and it loads just fine during the same test (look for "Module l10n_es loaded"). I was also able to install both modules in a bare local 18.0 setup just fine.
[1]: http://runbot213.odoo.com/runbot/static/build/86004794-17-0/logs/test-migration.txt
I couldn't find a way to debug the error better in order to know what is causing the module not to load. Any help here would be very welcome!
Thanks in advance. Cheers,

Re: Help debugging "module not installable" from Runbot on module PR
Thanks Virginie, I'll try to ping them on GitHub directly regarding the PR and see if that works.
Regarding the Accounting Odoo Forum it's just a section in the odoo.com forum: <https://www.odoo.com/forum/accounting-6>
Thanks everyone for the directions, cheers!

By the way, what is this Accounting Odoo Forum you are talking about? Don't know about it and would be interested to know more about it.

Re: Help debugging "module not installable" from Runbot on module PR
Thanks Adam for the heads-up, I did try to join the Runbot team's channel on Discord (following the link from <https://github.com/odoo/odoo/wiki/Mergebot#for-authors-and-reviewers>) but it looks like some kind of invitation is needed and I can't find any information on that.
I asked here in case someone had similar experiences with their code in Runbot or Runboat.
Cheers,

Just a Quick Thank You
Hi everyone,
I hope it’s alright to use this channel to send a quick thank-you message.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank those who have been dedicating time and energy to the development of OpenUpgrade. I truly appreciate the effort and attention to detail that goes into this kind of work—even when much of it happens quietly behind the scenes (and I guess with a few cups of coffee involved).
I’m writing this because I feel the hard work behind the scenes can sometimes go unnoticed, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to say thanks here. I’ve been following the OpenUpgrade repo for a while and really appreciate the effort everyone is putting in—especially as I continue to learn myself. Your contributions are highly valuable—not only to me, but also to my/our customers and, I’m sure, the wider community.
No names mentioned here, but I hope everyone involved knows the appreciation is there — especially since it’s a relatively small, consistent group of people.
And if not, well... you’re still getting a virtual high-five! 🙌
So once again—a big thank you! Your work benefits all of us.
Best regards,
Nils

Re: Just a Quick Thank You
Virginie, just a remark: although OCA has contributed financially a bit for the last 2 versions, that only constitutes about 30%-40% of the work done on OpenUpgrade on those versions, as the paid initiative only covered a fraction of the Odoo modules. You mentioned already that, but without amounts, so it's important for the context IMO, specially for measuring the global costs.Regards.

I hope it’s alright to use this channel to send a quick thank-you message.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank those who have been dedicating time and energy to the development of OpenUpgrade. I truly appreciate the effort and attention to detail that goes into this kind of work—even when much of it happens quietly behind the scenes (and I guess with a few cups of coffee involved).
I’m writing this because I feel the hard work behind the scenes can sometimes go unnoticed, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to say thanks here. I’ve been following the OpenUpgrade repo for a while and really appreciate the effort everyone is putting in—especially as I continue to learn myself. Your contributions are highly valuable—not only to me, but also to my/our customers and, I’m sure, the wider community.
No names mentioned here, but I hope everyone involved knows the appreciation is there — especially since it’s a relatively small, consistent group of people.
And if not, well... you’re still getting a virtual high-five! 🙌
So once again—a big thank you! Your work benefits all of us.
Best regards,
Nils_______________________________________________

Re: Eager to volunteer at Odoo Community Days India 2025.
HI Rudra,
That is awesome you are keen to be involved.
The OCA will not have a booth at Odoo Community Days in India this year.
But definitely contact Odoo themselves to get involved in the event - the OCA is a completely separate legal entity.Enjoy your time there.RebeccaOn Tue, 29 Jul 2025 at 03:37, Rudra Thakar <notifications@odoo-community.org> wrote:Hi [OCA/Odoo Team],I’m Rudra Thakar, and I’ve been following the updates for Odoo Community Days India 2025 at Mahatma Mandir.

Deadline is 15th August but we are open to extend it if needed by the companies wanting to submit an offer. Let me know!We launch today 2 new RFQ's, with the submission deadline on the 21st September.- RFQ 2 for the back-end + data collection from Github: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lMKRnCfO3B4ObrYyI1Ew7KnaIzp7rAF4/view?usp=sharing

A same company can apply to both RFQ's.
