Centralized control for Many2one & Many2many fields

Tighten control over your Odoo fields – without custom code. With Advance Model Configuration, you can control how users interact with Many2one and Many2many fields across Odoo. Decide where the Create and Create & Edit options are allowed, enable or block the External Link (redirect) in Many2one fields and set clear limits for Dropdown and “Search More” results.

Instead of letting users create or modify records from anywhere, you define exactly which models can be created, edited, opened or searched — keeping forms fast, controlled and clutter-free.

Perfect for companies that want clean master data, fewer duplicates and a smoother Odoo experience for their teams.

Simple settings. Real control over your Odoo data.



Field controls that stop messy master data

Restrict Create & Edit

Prevent users from creating or editing related records directly from dropdowns (e.g., in Sales, Purchase or Invoice forms), so all master data is created only from dedicated menus.

Restrict External Link

Disable the redirect link in Many2one fields, so users can’t accidentally jump to related records and change data from the wrong place.

Allow Create & Edit

For specific models (like Contacts, Products or Payment Terms), selectively re-enable “Create & Edit” so authorized users can still add records when needed.

Allow External Link

For models where it makes sense (like Payment Terms or Products), re-enable the redirect so users can open and view related records directly.

Set Dropdown Limit

Define how many records appear in the dropdown list (e.g., only 5–10), so forms load faster and users aren’t overwhelmed by long lists.

Set Search More Limit

Control how many records show in the “Search More” popup, keeping searches fast and relevant, even in large databases.

Installation

To install the module, navigate to the Apps menu, remove any existing filters from the search bar, search for pragtech_advance_model_configuration, and click the Activate button.

Configuration

Navigate to Settings > Technical > Model - Configuration and define rules per model.

Restrict Create and Edit External Link

After installing the Restrict Model Options module, the Create and Edit options in Many2one and Many2many fields, as well as the redirection link in Many2one fields, are disabled across other modules. As a result, users cannot create new records, which is why no customer records are available for selection.

Similar to the Create and Edit options, the redirection link in Many2one fields is also disabled.

Allow Create and Edit

To enable the Create and Edit option, Go to Settings → Technical → Models, select the model for which you want to allow Create and Edit, and enable the Allow Create/Edit Option checkbox.

Similar to the Create and Edit options, the redirection link in Many2one fields is also disabled.

Allow Create and Edit

Similar to the Create and Edit option, the same configuration applies to the External Link.

To enable it, go to Settings → Technical → Models, select the model for which you want to allow the external link, and enable the Allow External Link checkbox.

For example, to allow external links for payment terms, select the account.payment.term model and enable the Allow External Link.

After applying the configuration, the redirection link becomes available.

Set Dropdown Limit

Using the Dropdown Limit setting, you can define how many records are displayed in the dropdown menu for both Many2one and Many2many fields. The image below shows the dropdown list before any limits are applied.

To configure the dropdown limit, go to Settings → Technical → Models, select the model for which you want to set the limit, and enter the required value in the Search Dropdown Limit field, as shown in the image.

After applying the configuration, only two records are displayed in the dropdown menu.

Set Search More Limit

Using the Search More Limit feature, you can control how many records are displayed in the “Search More” pop-up for both Many2one and Many2many fields. The image below shows all available records before the limit is applied.

To configure the Search More limit, go to Settings → Technical → Models, select the model for which you want to set the limit, and enter the desired value in the Search More Limit field, as shown in the image.

After applying the configuration, only the number of records defined in the limit is displayed in the “Search More” results.

1. What is Pragtech Advance Model Configuration?

It is an Odoo module that gives administrators fine-grained control over how relational fields (Many2one and Many2many) behave, including create, edit, external links and record limits.

2. Which field types are supported?

The module supports:

  • Many2one fields
  • Many2many fields
3. What does “Restrict Create and Edit” mean?

When enabled, users will not see the Create and Edit options in the dropdown or Search More popup. This prevents them from creating or editing related records from the field.

4. What is the “External Link” in a field?

The external link is the arrow icon next to a Many2one field that lets users open the related record form.

5. What happens when “Restrict External Link” is enabled?

Users will not be able to open related records from the field. They can select values but not view or edit full details.

6. Can I allow Create/Edit for some fields and restrict others?

Yes. You can define rules per model and per field so each field can have its own permissions.

7. What is the Dropdown Limit?

Dropdown limit controls how many records appear in a Many2one or Many2many dropdown. Example: If set to 10, only 10 records will be shown.

8. What is the “Search More” limit?

It controls how many records are loaded in the Search More popup. Example: If set to 50, only 50 records will load.

9. Why should I limit dropdown and Search More results?
  • Improve performance
  • Avoid loading thousands of records
  • Make selection faster and cleaner for users
