Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
Let's say a compay name is "ELECTRIC COMPONENTS, SECURITY DEVICES AND MORE, SA" but everyone (even themseleves) calls them ELCOM (for abraviation).
Is there a legit way to add this nickname/alias into odoo so that when we search if ELCOM is our supplier for X product we can write ELCOM instead of the full name?
Thanks.
Hi,
If you need to achieve this without any customization, you can record the nick name in the field Reference. If you open contacts form, under the Sales & Purchase page, under the Misc section, you can see the field named Reference, here you can record the extra name of the customer. Using this reference, you can search and find the partner in sales, purchase etc.
If you don't need the above, you can inherit the res.partner model and add a new field and add it to the name search function.
Thanks
Thanks for answering.
Would it be possible that when I choose that supplier i also see the short name (when selecting supplier for a product)? That way people who don't know the long name would still understand it.
I now see how to put the short name in the PO and RFQ report quite easily (should we need it) with a simple custom (just adding the ref. into the report).
name get function has to be modified for that:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aT_tsfW5HaQ
This will work, thank you.
