The module works across all models in Odoo and integrates seamlessly with the Search More feature, giving users more control over how they find and filter data.

1) Product Form — Conference Chair

The product form showing Conference Chair with its complete details including name, internal reference, and other product information. This is the product that will be used to demonstrate the flexible search functionality.

2) Default Search — No Results for Reversed Keywords

When searching for "Chair Conference" (the reversed order of the actual product name "Conference Chair"), the default Odoo search returns no results. This demonstrates the limitation of standard search that requires exact keyword matching.

3) Search Mode Dropdown — Three Options

The search mode dropdown menu in the search panel provides three options: Default — standard Odoo search using the exact keyword, Any word — match records that contain any of the words, and All words — match records that contain every word. This dropdown enables flexible search behavior.

4) Any Word Mode — OR Logic Search

With Any word mode selected, searching for "Chair Conference" returns the Conference Chair product. This mode uses OR logic to match records containing any of the search terms, regardless of their order in the data.

5) All Words Mode — AND Logic Search

With All words mode selected, searching for "Chair Conference" also returns the Conference Chair product. This mode uses AND logic to match records containing all search terms, even if their order differs from the search query.

What is flexible search and how does it improve Odoo search?

Does this module work with Many2one fields?

Yes, the flexible search functionality extends to Many2one fields, including the Search More feature. You can use all three search modes when searching in relational fields.

Will this affect existing search functionality?

No, the Default search mode preserves the standard Odoo search behavior, ensuring backward compatibility. Users can continue using exact keyword matching if they prefer.

Does this work on all models in Odoo?

Yes, the flexible search functionality applies to list views and Many2one fields across all models in your Odoo instance without requiring any additional configuration.
