Task Auto Numbering and Search

Auto Task Numbering and Search is an Odoo module that enhances task management by automatically assigning unique reference numbers to project tasks. Users can configure task numbering rules with custom prefixes, suffixes, and starting numbers. The module allows a one-click update of all existing task reference numbers and shows a success notification with the total count updated. Admins can also manually edit task references directly from the task form view. Additionally, a global task search box is added to the top navigation bar, enabling quick access to tasks by reference or name from anywhere in Odoo.
