Hello,

I am using Odoo 18 Community Edition and I want to restrict certain users from viewing the cost price and sale price in the Inventory and Manufacturing modules. Is there a way to achieve this using access rights or record rules?


Thanks in advance

Thanks for your answer! I am new to Odoo. Could you please provide a step-by-step guide on how to implement this?

Chris TRINGHAM

You can search for more detailed answers, but you need to understand how Odoo works and that is beyond the scope of a Help question and answer (in my opinion). I did write one more detailed answer a while back (https://www.odoo.com/forum/help-1/re-how-to-disable-update-cost-on-sales-user-176326/#answer-176326) and there is some useful information on my website http://odootricks.tips/

Yes, you can limit access based on User Access Groups, something like this (in an Extension View):

<data>
  <xpath expr="//field[@name='order_line']" position="attributes">
    <attribute name="groups">base.group_erp_manager</attribute>
  </xpath>

</data>

<odoo>

    <data>

        <!-- Access to the sell price -->

If you have the Studio app installed (extra cost): 

Open the view with fields you want to restrict access.  Open studio.  There click on the field.  On the left side down, you will see 'Limit Visibility to fields'.  Careful, you can mess up.  I recommend you know the basics on managing access rights.

The result is a code like described by Chris.

The studio app then adds an extension view that is inherited in the basic view.   You avoid modifying Odoo standard code.

Studio app is excellent for those that do not know coding. But comes with a warning: You can mess up, and this might not work after updated version.

Thanks Lars - that's how I created the Extension View in my answer, but the question was about Community Edition so that's not an option :-)
