FAQs
Configure User-Based Journal Restrictions in Odoo
After installing the module, go to Settings > Users and open the
user for whom you want to apply journal restrictions. For example,
we selected Marc Demo to configure journal access permissions.
In the Other section, enable the Journal Restricted User
option under Journal Restrictions, as shown in the screenshot.
This ensures the user can only access the assigned accounting
journals in Odoo.
Assign Journal Access Permissions to Users
After enabling journal restrictions for a user, navigate to Accounting > Configuration > Journals and open the journal you want to assign. A new Access Control tab will be available on the journal form, as shown in the screenshot, where administrators can specify which users are allowed to access and work with the selected accounting journal.
Grant User Access to Specific Journals
After opening a journal, such as the Bank journal, go to the Access Control tab and assign access to the user Marc Demo, as shown in the screenshot. Once the user is added, save the changes to apply the journal access permissions.
Verify Restricted Journal Access
Now log in with the restricted user, such as Marc Demo, and navigate to Accounting > Configuration > Journals. As shown in the screenshot, the user will only be able to view the accounting journals that have been specifically assigned to them.
Configure Journal Restrictions for Another User
To further demonstrate the journal restriction functionality, assign access to another user, such as John Brewis. Navigate to Settings > Users, open the user profile, and in the Other section, enable the Journal Restricted User option under Journal Restrictions. Save the changes to apply the restriction settings for the selected user.
Assign Cash Journal Access to the User
Next, open the Cash Journal, navigate to the Access Control tab, and add John Brewis as an allowed user. Save the changes to grant the user permission to access and work with the selected journal.
Confirm User-Specific Journal Visibility
After logging in as John Brewis, you will notice that only the Cash Journal assigned to him is visible. This confirms that the module is functioning correctly by ensuring users can access only the accounting journals permitted to them.
Restricted Journal Selection in Invoices
When navigating to Accounting > Customers > Invoices, the Journal field will display only the journals assigned to the currently logged-in user, such as Marc Demo. This ensures users can create invoices only within their permitted accounting journals.
Restricted Journal Selection in Vendor Bills
When navigating to Accounting > Vendors > Bills, the Journal field will display only the journals assigned to the currently logged-in user, such as Marc Demo. This ensures users can create and manage vendor bills only within their authorized accounting journals.
