OWL Dashboard

Real-time breeding operations dashboard with pipeline view, activity metrics, and one-click navigation to filtered record lists.

📋 Run Every Program From the Project App

Every breeding program, seed production lot, cross plan, and field trial is now a real project in Odoo's standard Project app — and every processing step, lab sample, and cross record is a real task on it, complete with kanban stages, a type badge, and a live outcome summary. Drag a task to Done and the underlying record completes automatically; create a new typed task straight from the Project app and the matching breeding record is created for you. Certifying a seed lot, completing a cross plan, or reporting a field trial posts a full outcome summary — weights and quality, crosses attempted vs. successful, entries and top performers with CV/LSD — directly to the project's own activity feed, so a breeding operator can run the entire program from the Project menu alone. Every program, lot, cross plan and trial mirrors its lifecycle onto native project pipeline stages (Preparing → Running → Closing → Done), and planting a field trial creates an Expected Harvest project milestone, automatically reached once the harvest window begins.

Changelog

Version 19.0.3.5.4 - August 2026

  • Security fix: Officer-tier staff can now actually certify a seed lot with a class change — a missing Inventory access grant previously blocked the underlying reclassification stock movement from posting for anyone below full Manager rights

Version 19.0.3.5.3 - July 2026

  • New: species, generation, trait and lab test records now keep a full change-log and activity tracker in their own chatter, so key field edits are audit-tracked

Version 19.0.3.5.2 - July 2026

  • Technical: the program, seed-lot, cross-plan and field-trial Project-app links now update reliably whenever their own KPIs change, closing a gap where a stale internal lookup could delay a dashboard refresh — no visual or behavioral change

Version 19.0.3.5.1 - July 2026

  • Technical: the breeding dashboard's crosses, germination, seed-lot, trial-yield and cost-trend charts now render through Odoo's native Chart.js engine instead of hand-rolled SVG, matching the suite's updated dashboard standard — no visual or behavioral change

Version 19.0.3.5.0 - July 2026

  • New: Program budget variance % — instant over/under-budget read on every breeding program, alongside the existing actual-vs-planned spend
  • New: Cost per cross and cost per certified seed kg — program-level unit economics rolled up straight from the analytic account
  • New: Cumulative cost-trend chart on the breeding dashboard, filterable by program and species

Version 19.0.3.4.0 - July 2026

  • New: Production pipeline stages — breeding programs, seed lots, cross plans and field trials mirror their lifecycle onto native project stages (Preparing / Running / Closing / Done) for an at-a-glance pipeline kanban
  • New: Expected Harvest milestone — planting a field trial creates a native project milestone at the expected harvest date, reached once the harvest window begins

Version 19.0.3.3.0 - July 2026

  • New: Nursery and field trial kanban boards — browse breeding-pipeline progress as cards grouped by state, with entry counts, selection intensity and yield/CV at a glance
  • New: One-click task navigation — cross records and lab samples now always link straight to their own task, even when not tied to a cross plan, seed lot or field trial
  • New: Seed lots now list straight from their own variety — a variety's form links directly to every seed lot produced from it
  • Improved: Search & totals everywhere — breeding programs, nurseries, field trials, cross plans, lab samples/tests, seed lots, certificates and registrations all gained the state filters and list totals they were missing

Version 19.0.3.2.0 - July 2026

  • New: Buy foundation seed with a plain Purchase Order — receiving a serialized seed product automatically creates its seed-lot registry entry, with variety and seed class read straight from the product
  • New: Selling certified seed creates a real Sale Order — the sale now generates a genuine quotation for the buyer alongside its delivery, visible from the Sales app

Version 19.0.3.1.0 - July 2026

  • New: Seed lots are real, serialized stock from day one — every seed lot now links to its own variety's product and stock lot as soon as it's created, not only once sold
  • New: Processing loss is visible as scrap — cleaning, grading, and other processing steps post a genuine stock write-off for the weight lost at each step
  • New: Seed treatment consumes real stock — completing a treatment draws the chemical used straight from Inventory
  • New: Lab samples draw from the lot — taking a seed sample for testing posts a real reduction against the lot's own stock
  • New: Certification can reclassify seed class — if inspection results in a different seed class than planted, issuing the certificate re-links the lot to the correct class with a genuine stock movement

Version 19.0.3.0.0 - July 2026

  • New: Crop species are native product categories — every species is now a real Odoo product category, ready to back real variety products in Inventory
  • New: Every variety is a real product with its commercial seed classes as variants — Breeder, Foundation, Registered, and Certified are now separate, individually stockable variants of the same variety
  • New: Native accounting by species — income, expense, and valuation accounts set on a species automatically apply to every variety underneath it
  • New: Genebank holdings are visible in Inventory — every species gets its own genebank stock location, and registering an accession posts a real stock receipt so germplasm samples are inventory-auditable
  • New: Nurseries have their own Inventory location — every nursery now carries a matching stock location automatically

Version 19.0.2.0.0 - July 2026

  • New: Project-app integration — every breeding program, seed production lot, cross plan, and field trial is now a typed project, and every processing step, lab sample, and cross record is a typed task, both fully workable from Odoo's standard Project app (kanban stages, type badges, outcome summaries posted straight to the project's chatter)
  • Creating a task from the Project app on a program/lot/plan/trial project now automatically creates the matching breeding record — no need to switch back to the breeding menu
  • Certifying a seed lot, completing a cross plan, or reporting a field trial posts a full outcome summary to the project's activity feed — weights and quality, crosses attempted vs. successful and seed produced, or entries and top performers with CV/LSD
  • Historical activity (messages, followers, reminders) on programs, lots, cross plans, and field trials was carried over onto their new project/task records — nothing is lost
  • Expanded the automated test suite with dedicated coverage for the new project/task delegation across all seven converted models

Version 19.0.1.2.0 - July 2026

  • Fully modernized breeding dashboard — rebuilt from the ground up with cascading Species, Program and Trial filters plus a date range, so you can focus on exactly the material you are evaluating
