Making a customer from an opportunity is the only goal of the CRM pipeline. To achieve that goal sales staff needs to undertake a specific sequence of actions. Each of those actions is important on a definite funnel stage. Efficient companies know that missing of any step might result in a long-run failure. This is an Odoo tool to make sure such a failure will not happen. The app provides a check list for each pipeline stage to control requirements' fulfillment and to make sure that each action is fully approved by responsible users.
Stage-specific CRM checklists
Check lists are assigned per each opportunity stage. For instance, actions for the 'new' and 'proposition' stages might be different. Prepare any number of checkpoints for each CRM stage
Team-specific check points
Checklists might be optionally distinguished by sale teams. Thus, the set of actions per stage may be different for 'America' and 'Europe'
Actions ensured to be done
To move a CRM lead forward in your funnel, its check list should be fully confirmed ('moving forward' implies any change of stage from a lesser to a bigger sequence). For certain stages - e.g. for 'Canceled' - you may want to avoid such restriction. Then, mark this stage as 'No need for checklist'
Highlighted opportunity progress
Fulfillment progress is shown on opportunities kanban and form views for instant overview
Approval history for managerial control
Check list actions are saved in history. If an opportunity is moved back, already done check items would be recovered. Turn on the setting 'not saved' to avoid that behavior for specific approval points
Multiple CRM check list roles
The app lets assign security groups for each check list point. In such a case, only users from that groups would be able to confirm a related item
Forbid opportunity regress
With the tool, configure the CRM pipeline to disallow moving opportunities back. To that goal, turn on the option 'Forbid regress to this stage' for particular states. For example, to make sure no leads become 'New' again
Super approval admins
The special role 'CRM Checklists Super User' allows (a) to confirm any check points disregarding defined security groups; (b) to move any opportunity further (progress) without fulfilling check lists; (c) to move any opportunity back (regress) even a new stage does not allow that.




Anybody who has access to stage settings can modify the value of check lists.
If set to "true", a lead/opportunity might be moved to this stage without fulfilling a check list. Usually used for "lost" stage, since it doesn't require any sort of extra actions. In such a case users can move any lead/opportunity to "lost" from any stage without doing anything (e.g. new > lost, proposition > lost).
If set to "false", a checklist of a current stage is required to be entered if moved to this stage (in case it is further through the pipeline). For example, "won" state requires certain actions. If you move a lead/opportunity from "proposition" to "won", you should confirm check points of the "proposition" stage. "False" is the default value for "no need for checklist" field.
When making a checklist you can choose the user groups for each checklist's statement. Only these user groups will be able to mark the statement as done. If someone else tries to mark the statement done, then the system will not let them save it and the warning will appear.
According to the current Odoo Apps Store policies:
- every module bought for the version 12.0 and prior gives you an access to the all versions up to 12.0.
- starting from the version 13.0, every version of the module should be purchased separately.
- disregarding the version, purchasing a tool grants you a right for all updates and bug fixes within a major version.
Take into account that faOtools team does not control those policies. By all questions please contact the Odoo Apps Store representatives directly.
The easiest approach is to use the Odoo store built-in workflow:
1. Open the module's page and click the button Deploy on odoo.sh
2. After that, you will be redirected to the GitHub page. Login to your account and click 'Create a new repo' or use the existing one. Please, make sure, that your repository is private. It is not permitted to publish the apps under the OPL-1 license. If necessary, create a new repo for your Odoo.sh project
3. Then, go to odoo.sh and click on the deploy button, submit the decision in the pop-up window and click 'Continue'. The action will trigger the installation process.
These steps would install the app for your project production branch. If you wanted to deploy the apps for other branches or update the module, you should undertake the following actions:
1. Upload the source code for the app from the Odoo store
2. Commit the module to a required GitHub repository. Make sure that none of the app folders/files are ignored (included in the .gitignore of your repo). Repositories are automatically created by odoo.sh, which might add by default some crucial items there (e.g. /lib). You should upload all module directories, subdirectories, and files without exceptions
3. Deploy a target branch of the odoo.sh project or wait until it is automatically built if your settings assume that.
Unzip the source code of the purchased tools in one of your Odoo add-ons' directories;
Re-start the Odoo server;
Turn on the developer mode (technical settings);
Update the apps' list (the apps' menu);
Find the app and push the button 'Install';
Follow the guidelines on the app's page if those exist.
Yes, sure. Take into account that Odoo automatically adds all dependencies to a cart. You should exclude previously purchased tools.
A red/orange warning itself does not influence features of the app. Regretfully, sometimes our modules do not pass standard automatic tests, since the latter assumes behavior which is in conflict with our apps goals. For example, we change price calculation, while standard Odoo module tests compare final price to standard algorithm.
So, first of all, please check deployed database features. Does everything work correctly?
If you still assume that warning influences real features, please contact us and forward full installation logs and the full lists of deployed modules (including core and third party ones).
No, we distribute the tools only through the official Odoo apps store
Regretfully, we do not have a technical possibility to provide individual prices.
No, third party apps can not be used on Odoo Online.
Yes, all modules marked in dependencies are absolutely required for a correct work of our tool. Take into account that price marked on the app page already includes all necessary dependencies.
The price for our modules is set up in euros. The Odoo store converts prices in others currencies according to its internal exchange rate. Thus, the price in US Dollars may change, when exchange rate changes.

16.0 version
Is there 16.0 version coming?
Re: 16.0 version
Hello, Harri!
Yes, the app for version 16 should be published soon. There has been a delay due to significant changes in Odoo 16 itself. However, the team is planning to finish all the jobs in the nearest weeks.
Please send us the message directly - https://faotools.com/my/tickets/newticket?url_type_id=6&url_app_id=14&ticket_version=16.0 - so, we will be able to notify you when the app is published. Thanks!
hi there, can we have the O16 version as well?
Re:
Hello! The module is going to be ported to v.16 Odoo. However, the process of porting is quite a complex process that might take up to a few months.
Our current expectation is to release the app at about the beginning of December. It might happen earlier in optimistic scenarios.
If you want to be notified as soon as the release is done, you can submit your ticket by the link https://faotools.com/my/tickets/newticket?url_type_id=6
