STORY BEHIND THE FEATURES
ODOO BEHAVIOR
In standard Odoo, the system allows duplicate entries for partner references, product references, product category references and customer references on sales orders — leading to confusion, reporting errors, or operational risks.
CLUEDOO BEHAVIOR
✅ Enforces uniqueness for:
-
Partner Reference
-
Product Reference
-
Product Category Reference
-
Sales Order Customer Reference
✅ The system displays warning messages if a user tries to assign a duplicate value.
