Message Button
Show/Hide Send Message Button
Control the Send Message button visibility per user and per module in Odoo.
This module allows administrators to manage the visibility of the “Send Message” button on form views based on users and modules. By assigning restrictions at user level, companies can decide which users are allowed to send messages on specific models. This helps maintain communication control, prevent unauthorized chatter, and improve workflow discipline. Ideal for businesses that need user-wise messaging restrictions for security, compliance, or internal process management.
Key Advantages
User-Level Message Control
Enable or disable the “Send Message” button for individual users across selected modules.
Model-Wise Configuration
Control messaging permissions for specific models rather than globally for the entire system.
Enhanced Data Privacy
Prevents unauthorized users from accessing or sending messages in confidential forms.
Customizable Per Role or Department
Ideal for differentiating permissions between sales, support, accounting, and operations teams.
Easy Configuration
Simple backend field configuration without requiring technical changes or developer involvement.
