  • Migration to 19.0: subscription_oca
    Hello OCA community,

    I would like to continue the migration of the module 'subscription_oca' to Odoo 19.0.
    The previous PR #1353 by @yanchirino was closed due to failing tests, and I will pick it up from there.

    If anyone is already working on this module, please let me know.

    Best regards,
    Gerardo Alí Ferraro Schelijasch

    Hi Daniel,
    
    Thank you for this, IMHO, incredibly valuable effort!

    I perceive your words as an intention to share and collaborate on
    open catalog dataset vs. data entry interface to next centralized
    resource.
    
    If that's the idea, I am wondering, Do you like some of those
    DB-tech, striving to achieve git branching flexibility and
    decentralization on structured datasets?
    
    I mean thes queryable DBs like dolt/doltgres[1], terminusdb[2] and
    oxen[3]. Dolt and Oxen have hosted gihub equivalents for fork/merging
    datasets. Dolt just added plain Git repo as a more simple option for
    remote[*] (the data chunks live in a dedicated ref, alongside source
    refs).
    
    What is your opinion on the git-like approach for the catalog, with
    eventual future collaborative "code overlay" contributions as static
    analysis datasets and code/doc embeddings?
    
    Kind regards,
    Alek

    There is version-control-platform that will try to handle everything together. We are still working on it, but it is quite promising. Actually, it will be used by OCA to handle all the information coming from Github. Also, it will be opened to use other platforms like github.

    Kind regards,

    Hey Denis,

    I saw the OCA shop, however I have a few issues with it:

    • The page size is pretty small - only 20 modules per page.
    • It's missing 19.0 even though some Odoo modules do support it.
    • I might want to add some non-OCA open-source repos too.
    I wanted a way to have a single page that lists every available module, so I can just Ctrl+F to find a module without having to do a server-side search for each one individually. odoomodules.com is just plain HTML and CSS (and a little bit of JavaScript) with no server-side code, so you can also do things like save it for offline viewing.

    I do want to take some ideas from the OCA shop though, like the filters for category, version, and maturity.

    I also want to add a way to search for all modules that are installed in a given Odoo instance (for example, to use when preparing for a version upgrade, to ensure that all modules are available in the new version). I need to figure out how to do that though. Maybe a script that exports a list of installed modules from Odoo, plus a search field that lets you enter multiple module names. I'll give it some thought.

  • Re: Odoo security visualizer
    Mohamed,
    
    please stop spamming the mailing list with links to your generated slop.
    
    Further, an important part of making a valuable contribution is researching 
    prior work, doing so would have lead you to
    https://github.com/OCA/server-backend/tree/16.0/base_user_effective_permissions
    which already does a large part of what you propose here.
    
    A *non-slop* version of the acl and rule decomposition could be a useful 
    addition to this module though. But as the code stands currently, I wouldn't 
    start with a review because at first glance there's so much wrong on a 
    fundamental level that just listing all of that would be quite work intensive. 
    And probably a vain effort because most likely my input goes into the bullshit 
    generator again, which is not how I want to spend my scarce review time.

    Holger

    There were limits for them, money costing not free ones in OCA.

    But if there is a way do design the data to export or to send via API or enable an endpoint in odoo to read the same specific structure you want.

    For example I like to expose data to endpoint using auth key to read a partner with related sales orders or related companies or a company with children partners for, or any complicated structure of models in odoo.

    If it can be jsonified and getting exposed and even having a dynamic schema to read and define the content and structure of that endpoint.

    I found by luck a pull request here in OCA by KOBROS-TECH LTD that is introducing that solution.

    I guess that company in pretty new but having ambition to introduce some useful things to the community.

  • Re: Weighing scales
    Hi!

    I only saw the internal message below on 25.09.2025, claiming that this was valid in all Europe.

    Dear colleagues,
    I’m pleased to share that we have received LNE certification for the use of scales in the Point of Sale. This certification applies to version 18.0 across all EU countries. While mandated by an EU directive, this was particularly important for countries such as France, Switzerland, and Germany.

    Our R&D team is already working on certifying version 19.0 as soon as possible.

    Please note:

    • The module is not auto-installed; clients will need to install it themselves. See screenshot below.

    • This module certifies the Point of Sale with the LNE (Laboratoire national de métrologie et d’essais), which is a legal requirement in certain EU countries. It enforces specific settings and generates a checksum to ensure the code has not been tampered with.

    • Note that we are currently integrated only with Mettler Toledo scales using the 8217 communication protocol. To enable integration (so the weight is automatically recorded in Odoo), an IoT is required. We strongly recommend using the physical IoT rather than the virtual one, as the physical IoT includes the necessary drivers and interfaces. The virtual IoT relies on drivers installed on the client’s Windows PC.

    thanks @Laurence for this very helpful clarity that seems to settle the uncertainty for now at least for the German case, given you spoke directly with the German measuring authorities/Eichamt.

    "I've looked into this and found that the certification is twofold: one being the software (Odoo), and the other being the hardware (scale manufacturer). Odoo is certified to weigh items, so one half is covered, but the hardware itself must also be covered."

    As for for your surprise on any "legal or logical connection" between TSE and scale, this was a misunderstanding. I did not mean to suggest: From TSE certifications follows scale certification. I meant to suggest: If you use a TSE certified POS, and plugin a certified scale (which the Mettler Toledo Arriva S recommend by Odoo is, as a standalone scale), then your total setup may be Ok certification wise in terms of tax and weighing regulations. Your research shows: this is not the case, according to Eichamt, the whole systems needs to be certified together.

    From a "common sense"  perspective however (which risk is bigger: the human typing wrong from scale display, or the software grabbing the data wrong), and for smaller customers willing to take the legal risk (customers who may have multiple other non 100% compliant processes in their organisations given their small size and degree of professionalism), using these two "standalone certified components" (Odoo POS and scale) connected might still be an option some customers/Odoo users may chose to go for, having been warned about the legal risks and that the legally safe alternative would be the label printing workaround.

    Thank you for this valuable contribution and clarity,
    and joining you in the hope that regulations will be upgraded to 21st century

    Hi all,

    thanks Frederik for looping me in – happy to share what I know.

    MY LAST OFFICIAL INFORMATION FROM ODOO:

    About a year ago (maybe a bit less), I was told by Odoo that they were in the certification process for scales in Paris. Since then: radio silence. Nothing public, no announcement, no certificate number, nothing I could show to a customer or an authority. So as far as I'm concerned, the certification status is still "pending" at best.

    WHAT THE GERMAN AUTHORITIES TOLD US:

    We had direct conversations with the Eichamt (weights and measures authority) here in Germany, and they were very clear:

    The ENTIRE SYSTEM needs to be certified and calibrated together:
    - The scale itself
    - The IoT box / communication layer
    - The POS hardware
    - The POS software

    All of it. As one integrated, sealed system.

    Now, if you know Odoo... that's almost impossible to achieve. Odoo's strength is flexibility – you can configure almost anything, install community modules, customize freely. And if you're on Odoo.sh or SaaS, you're getting continuous updates. That's the exact opposite of what calibration authorities want: a frozen, audited, unchangeable system.

    REGARDING JAN'S THEORY (FISKALY TSE = SCALE OK?):

    I would be EXTREMELY INTERESTED to hear more about what Jan found out, because frankly, I don't see how this could be correct.

    The fiskaly TSE certification and scale/weighing certification are:

    1. Two completely different legal frameworks – TSE is about fiscal compliance (GoBD, KassenSichV), weighing is about legal metrology (MessEG, MessEV, NAWI/MID directive)
    2. Two completely different authorities – Finanzamt (tax office) vs. Eichamt (weights and measures office)
    3. Two completely different purposes – One ensures tax transparency, the other ensures consumers aren't cheated on weight-based pricing

    I don't see any legal or logical connection where certifying the cash register for tax purposes would automatically certify the weighing system for trade use. These authorities don't even talk to each other.

    MY SUSPICION ABOUT THE DOCUMENTATION CHANGE:

    Looking at the diff between Odoo 17.0 and 18.0 docs – yes, they removed the explicit warning about France, Germany, and Switzerland. But removing a warning from documentation is not the same as obtaining certification. I suspect this was a commercial/marketing decision rather than a reflection of any legal change.

    If Odoo actually got certified somewhere, I would expect:
    - A proper announcement
    - A certificate number we can reference
    - Updated documentation that says "certified in X countries" rather than just removing the negative statement

    MY POSITION FOR CUSTOMERS:

    Until I see an official certificate, I continue to advise customers in Germany to use the workaround: a standalone certified scale that prints labels with barcodes, which are then scanned into Odoo POS. Not elegant, but legally safe.

    LOOKING FORWARD:

    That said, I do think this whole situation is outdated for 2026. The current calibration laws were written for a world of standalone, unchanging devices – not cloud-connected, continuously updated software systems. I hope regulators will modernize this eventually, but that's a slow process.

    Jan – if you have any concrete documentation or official statement that supports the "fiskaly = scale OK" theory, I'd genuinely love to see it. Maybe I'm missing something, and I'm always happy to be proven wrong if it means we can finally use integrated scales legally.

    P.S.: Frederik, thanks for the hint about the Hamburg OCA Sprint – Jan-Marten, feel free to send me the details!

    Hi all, 

    well the latest i heard on this was from fellow Odooer Laurence Labusch (and his company Labiso GmbH). He has spent considerable time to narrow down that issue with the authorities and afaik it is still not allowed to use an electronic wheiging scale even if the POS itself is working according to the national standard which in Germany is implemented using fiskaly TSE unless the whole POS is certified with the weighing scale but maybe Laurence (which i am putting on copy can answer himself).

    Best Frederik

    P.S.: Jan-Marten maybe you can make Laurence aware of the Hamburg OCA Sprint ;-)

    My latest information (more a guess/feeling) from Odoo customer service (and some online research) on this was that if the POS is certified (like e.g. Odoo POS via fiscaly is in Germany), then the scale itself does not need to have an additional certification, and that this may explain why Odoo removed the below  notice from its later documentation from v18 on
    "Odoo is not certified in several countries, including France, Germany, and Switzerland. If you reside in one of these countries, you can still use a scale but without integration into your Odoo database. Alternatively, you can acquire a non-integrated certified scale that prints certified labels, which can then be scanned into your Odoo database."

    Anyone has more clarity on this scale certification part in Germany or other EU countries?

  • Dynamic data structured API
    Some modules tried to generate a dynamic APIs to read data from odoo.

    There were limits for them, money costing not free ones in OCA.

    But if there is a way do design the data to export or to send via API or enable an endpoint in odoo to read the same specific structure you want.

    For example I like to expose data to endpoint using auth key to read a partner with related sales orders or related companies or a company with children partners for, or any complicated structure of models in odoo.

    If it can be jsonified and getting exposed and even having a dynamic schema to read and define the content and structure of that endpoint.

    I found by luck a pull request here in OCA by KOBROS-TECH LTD that is introducing that solution.

    I guess that company in pretty new but having ambition to introduce some useful things to the community.

    I am going to review that pull request and I hope it gains some interest, and I would like to thank that new company for giving me the exact solution that I was looking for


    Best regards, Mohamed

    HI Richard and Stuart,

    We don't currently have a local association in the UK - but if you would like to come along to the next Local Associations meeting you can see what other countries are up to: OCA Public Calendar
    If you are interested I can add you to the invite list, just let me know.

    I can also set up communication channels via discord or an OCA mailing group for the UK if that helps?

    Are there other UK contributors that may be interested? Please get in touch.
