Hi everyone,


I’m facing an access rights issue related to chatter permissions in Odoo and would appreciate some guidance from the community.


Context
  • Main model: mrp.empty.batch.records

  • The model inherits:

_inherit = ['mail.thread', 'mail.activity.mixin']

  • The user has:

    • Read access on mrp.empty.batch.records

    • No write / create access on the main model

    • Create access on: mail.message and mail.activity

Expected behavior

The user should be able to:

  • Read the record

  • Create Log Notes

  • Create Schedule Activities in the chatter without being allowed to modify or create the main record itself

Is there a way to allow read-only users to create log notes / schedule activities without granting write access on the main model?


Thanks in advance for any insights or recommendations!

Hey,
This is because both actions internally call message_post(), which performs a write operation on the record (for tracking and metadata updates). As a result, read-only access on the main model is not sufficient by default.

Override message_post() on the main model and call it with sudo() for specific read-only groups.

Hi Abdeslam,
Thanks for your response, there's no other fast way. I probably have to use sudo to solve this issue.

Have a nice day, Abdeslam!
