Hide Add Custom Filter

Simplify UI & Secure Search

Maintain strict control over your data views by selectively restricting the "Add Custom Filter" functionality. Use our dedicated access group to hide complex query options from specific users, keeping their search interface clean without disrupting default Odoo behavior for others.

v Odoo 18.0 v Enterprise & Community

Why This Module Matters

By default, any user can create complex, custom filters that can clutter their workspace or inadvertently query sensitive relational data. This module grants administrators the power to lock down the search menu for specific users effortlessly.

✓ Targeted Data Security: Prevent inexperienced users from querying complex backend data through advanced filters, while leaving management workflows intact.
✓ UI Simplification: Remove confusing options for non-technical users, keeping their focus entirely on standard, company-approved views.
✓ Standardization: Force standard operating procedures for selected teams by ensuring they only utilize pre-configured default filters.
✓ Universal Application: Once applied to a user, the restriction works universally across list, kanban, pivot, and graph views in all apps.

Key Features

Hide

Targeted Element Hiding

Completely eliminates the "Add Custom Filter" dropdown option from the search panel for targeted users without breaking the core search functionality.

Groups

Flexible Group-Based Control

Odoo behaves normally by default. Simply assign the new "Hide Add Custom Filter Menu" group to restrict specific users or roles.

Global

Global Integration

Once applied, the restriction modifies the core Odoo search architecture, automatically securing views across CRM, Sales, Inventory, and Custom Apps.

Settings

Zero Complex Setup

No coding required. Simply install the application and manage restrictions natively via standard Odoo user settings.

How It Works

1

Default Odoo Behavior Intact

Upon installation, your Odoo environment continues to function normally. The "Add Custom Filter" option remains fully visible to all users by default, ensuring zero immediate disruption to your existing workflow or management teams.

Before Module Install
2

Apply the Restriction Group

To hide the custom filter option from a specific user, navigate to Settings > Users & Companies > Users. Open the user profile and check the new "Hide Add Custom Filter Menu" access right. Once applied, that specific user will only see a clean, straightforward list of predefined standard filters.

Help & Guidelines

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this hide "Favorites" or standard filters?
No. This module exclusively hides the "Add Custom Filter" option for restricted users. Standard default filters, group by options, and saved favorites remain fully visible and operational.
Does it apply to custom modules and third-party apps?
Yes. Because it modifies the core web search view architecture, the restriction is automatically inherited by any custom modules or third-party applications utilizing Odoo's standard search panel.
Do Administrators retain access to custom filters?
Yes. Since the restriction is opt-in, Administrators simply do not receive the "Hide Add Custom Filter Menu" group, meaning their access remains completely unrestricted.
Does this module work on Odoo.sh?
Yes. The module is perfectly suited for Odoo.sh, On-Premise installations, and standard cloud hosting environments.
