Overview

Important context about a customer, an order, or a vendor often lives in someone's head, a private chat, or a sticky on a physical monitor — not in Odoo where the rest of the team can see it. Notes added to the chatter get buried under activity logs and email threads. There is no way to pin something that should stay visible every time someone opens the record.

Sticky Notes solves this. Any internal user can pin a color-coded note directly on any Odoo record — a sale order, a contact, an invoice, a project task, anything with a form view. Notes appear as a compact banner immediately above the form, so they are impossible to miss. They stay visible until deliberately removed by their author or an administrator.

Systray icon

A pin icon appears in the top-right systray next to the messaging and activity buttons. Click it to open a small dropdown that lets you add a new note for the current record — without scrolling back to the top of the form or searching for the banner.

The badge updates instantly when notes are added or removed and disappears automatically when you navigate to a view without a saved record.

Key features

• Works on any record — notes are stored with a model name and record ID, so the module attaches to sale orders, contacts, invoices, purchase orders, project tasks, and every other form in Odoo without any per-model configuration
• Inline edit — click the pencil icon on your own note to edit the text directly in the banner, without opening a separate dialog
• Inline delete with confirmation — delete your own note from the banner; a browser confirmation prompt prevents accidental removal
• Add from anywhere — the systray dropdown lets you add a note without scrolling or navigating; the banner reloads automatically
• No configuration required — install and it works; no settings panel, no cron jobs, no additional setup
