Deltatech Category Group
Groups for internal categories
This module extends Odoo’s internal product categories with two additional grouping dimensions — Category type and Category class — enabling businesses to segment and analyse inventory, sales margins, and invoices at a finer level than the built-in category hierarchy.
Key features:
- ✓Adds Category type and Category class fields to every product category (many2one relations to dedicated configuration lists).
- ✓Configurable lists of types and classes, each with a drag-and-drop sequence, managed from the Inventory configuration menu.
- Sale Margin report(from
deltatech_sale_commission) gains group-by filters for Category type and Category class. - Stock Quantview gains search and group-by filters for both dimensions.
- Account Invoice reportgains search and group-by filters for both dimensions.
- ✓Access to the configuration lists is controlled by the dedicated security group Manage category groups (assigned to Administrator by default).
Configuration
Before using the grouping filters in reports, configure the available types and classes.
1. Grant access
Users who will manage category groups need the Manage category groups security group. By default it is implied for the Administrator role. Add other users in Settings > Users & Companies > Groups if required.
2. Define Category types
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Category options > Category types. Click New, enter a name, set the sequence (lower = higher in lists), and save.
3. Define Category classes
Navigate to Inventory > Configuration > Category options > Category classes. Click New, enter a name, set the sequence, and save.
4. Assign types and classes to product categories
Open any product category (Inventory > Configuration > Product Categories or Configuration > Product Categories from any app that exposes it). On the category form you will find two new fields, Category type and Category class. Select the appropriate values and save.
Once categories are tagged, the group-by filters become meaningful in:
- ✓Inventory > Reporting > Inventory (Stock Quant)
- ✓Sale Margin report (requires
deltatech_sale_commission) - ✓Accounting > Reporting > Invoice Analysis
