Hi - completely new to ODOO but years of ERP experience, here's what I'm trying to do (and failing).

Preparing a big data set for import and need to create product categories for the inventory import.  We have a table of categories with a full text description and a short name which is 4 characters.  We use the short name on product labels as this is handy for small printed label size.

I have read some import guides for product categories where there are columns for ID, Name, Parent Category, Description.  When using the Name field (spreadsheet column) for our short 4-character name and 'Description' column for our full category description the import asks for a mapping of the Description column to an ODOO field.  But there is no Description field in the product category model.  Is this something that can be added or a system limitation?


TIA

Description for product category is not a in-built feature. You can achieve that by the following

  1. If you have odoo studio module you can add field 'Description'
  2. You can download or create odoo third party module and install
