See it in action / Vélo en acción
![]() Color-coded kanban with one card per template. See at a glance how many users currently match each template and apply with a single click. |
![]() Each template carries a name, description, color tag, the security groups it grants, an internal setup note, and a chatter for change tracking. |
![]() Bulk-apply wizard: pick the template, pick any number of users, choose Add or Replace mode, preview the change, then apply — all in one transaction. |
How it works / Cómo funciona
| Pick or create a template Open Settings → Role Templates. Use one of the 7 ready-made templates (Sales Rep, Sales Manager, Accountant, Accountant Read-Only, Warehouse Worker, Warehouse Manager, Portal) or create your own from any installed security group. |
| Choose users and mode Click Apply on the template card or from a user form. Pick one or many users, then choose Add (keep existing groups + add the template's) or Replace (clear groups, then apply only the template's, preserving Hidden/Technical groups). |
| Preview and confirm Hit Preview to see exactly which groups will be granted to which users before anything is committed. When it looks right, hit Apply — done in one transaction, with chatter logging the change. |
Use cases / Casos de uso
🚀 New-hire onboarding Provision a new salesperson, accountant or warehouse worker in one click instead of ticking 8–12 group checkboxes by hand. New hires are productive on day one. |
🔄 Role changes & promotions When someone moves from Sales Rep to Sales Manager, Replace mode swaps their permissions cleanly without leaving stale access from their previous role. |
👥 Bulk reorganization Restructured your team? Select 20 users, pick the new template, apply once. Replace mode wipes mismatched groups across the whole batch in seconds. |
🛡️ Audit-ready consistency Every user with the same role has identical group assignments — no drift, no 'why does Maria have access to X but not Jorge?'. The template is the single source of truth. |

FAQ / Preguntas frecuentes
| What's the difference between Pro and Free? ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre Pro y Free? |
| Free ships 2 templates (Sales Rep, Warehouse Worker) and 'Add' mode, limited to 1 user per apply. Pro adds 5 more templates (Sales Manager, Accountant Full, Accountant R-O, Warehouse Manager, Portal User), bulk apply (any number of users) and 'Replace' mode. Free trae 2 plantillas (Vendedor, Almacenista) y modo 'Add', limitado a 1 usuario por aplicación. Pro agrega 5 plantillas más (Gerente Ventas, Contador, Contador R-O, Gerente Almacén, Solo Portal), aplicación masiva (cualquier número) y modo 'Replace'. |
| Does Replace mode delete user data? ¿El modo Reemplazar borra datos del usuario? |
| No. Replace only modifies the user's group assignments — it removes all current groups (except Hidden/Technical) and adds the template's groups. Records owned by the user are untouched. No. Reemplazar solo modifica los grupos asignados al usuario — quita todos los actuales (excepto Hidden/Technical) y agrega los de la plantilla. Los registros del usuario no se tocan. |
| Does it work with custom-module groups? ¿Funciona con grupos de módulos personalizados? |
| Yes. A template's group_ids field accepts any res.groups record installed in the system, including custom modules. Sí. El campo group_ids de la plantilla acepta cualquier res.groups instalado, incluyendo módulos custom. |
| Can I apply several templates to one user? ¿Puedo aplicar varias plantillas a un usuario? |
| Yes. In Add mode, applying templates accumulates permissions. In Replace mode, only the last applied template stays. Sí. En modo Add aplicar varias acumula permisos. En modo Replace solo queda la última aplicada. |
| Does it stay in sync if I modify the template? ¿Se mantiene sincronizado si modifico la plantilla? |
| Not automatically. Reapply the template (or use bulk apply across the affected users) for the change to propagate. No automáticamente. Reaplica la plantilla (o usa aplicación masiva sobre los usuarios afectados) para propagar el cambio. |
