Multi Search
Search many values at once from any Odoo search bar
Multi Search for Odoo 19 Enterprise lets you search many values at once from any Odoo 19 search bar. Wrap space separated terms in curly braces, for example {SO001 SO002 SO003}, and every term is searched against the selected field in one pass. Built for support, logistics and finance teams who look up batches of order references, tracking numbers or customer codes every day.
Overview
Looking up twenty order references normally means twenty separate searches. This module removes that repetition. Paste the list into the search bar inside curly braces and Odoo searches all of them together, using exactly the operator it would use for a single value.
One search instead of twenty
Curly brace syntax turns a pasted list into a single multi value search.
- Works in every backend search bar.
- Applies to any searchable field you select.
- Uses the same operator Odoo applies to one value.
Invisible until you use it
Without the braces, search behaves exactly as standard Odoo.
- Transparent fallback to standard behaviour.
- No new models and no stored data.
