Agent Instructions

When to Use This Knowledge

Known Gotchas (Painfully Learned)

  1. Excludes web_enterprise - Cannot be installed with Odoo Enterprise web module
  2. Keyboard Shortcuts Changed - Uses Alt+Shift+NUM instead of Alt+NUM
  3. Fuse.js Included - Bundles fuse.basic.min.js for fuzzy search
  4. User Preferences - Each user can configure search type and theme
  5. is_redirect_home - Computed from action_id, resets if home action is set
  6. Sequence 1 - Loads early in module sequence
