Dear All,

After I'm installing Odoo 8 from bitnami in windows 7 64 bit, I'll try to backup database for backup, so when I'm trying in development, If I need to database rollback like first installing, I can restore from the backup, In Odoo 9 before, I do like that, but when I'm trying Odoo 8 I have some problem, The originally after first installing, when I try to create backup from odoo gui, the database manager in web. I got error message "access denied" when I try to backup database bitnami_openerp. So, I try to find the solution in google link : Title.

In file C:/odoo/apps/odoo/conf/conf/openerp-server.conf, I change admin_passwd = YOUR_PASSWORD. Then restart the server. After that, the error "access denied" is gone, but I have new error one.. `pg_dump`. Like picture below :

So for now, I'll try to backup manually from pg admin. But, if I'm backup from pg admin, there is need to backup all files in C:/odoo too?

Hi,

I configured an Odoo 8 instance, using my company actual domain, and actual email user logins/passwords…

Config A…
1. Entered an enquiry@mycompanyname.com as company email via "Configure your company data" in General Settings.
2. Applied my company's actual domain name as the Alias Domain in General Settings.
3. Restarted the instance after the steps above.
4. Created an outgoing SMTP using smtp.gmail.com. Deleted the localhost entry. There was only one outgoing mail server entry
5. Created 2 users' incoming mail servers entries, using users' actual company email accounts that exist in company mail server.
6. Applied the actual users' email addresses as Messaging Alias in the respective User Preference.
7. I did not delete mail.catchall.alias entry in system parameters.

With this config, I was able to successfully
a. Send Reset Password Instruction to users' company email accounts
b. Send a new email to the the 3rd gmail account from a user within Odoo.
c. Receive emails from a 3rd gmail account, to the 2 users' message inboxes within Odoo
d. Reply the emails sent by 3rd gmail account from user's message inboxes.

However, whenever I made just this change…
Config B…
1. Replaced the out outgoing mail server from smtp.gmail.com to one of the users' valid company email accounts tested in Config A above, then
a. Failed: Send Reset Password Instruction to users' company email accounts
b. Failed: Send a new email to the the 3rd gmail account from a user within Odoo
c. Passed: Receive emails from a 3rd gmail account, to the 2 users' message inboxes within Odoo
d. Failed: the emails sent by 3rd gmail account from user's message inboxes failed.
2. The file attached is an error message when I attempted to Send Reset Password Instruction. All other action did not have any pop up messages. Only shown as a liner record showing Delivery Failed in General Settings->Email:Emails

When I reverted back to smtp.gmail.com, then everything worked again.

My desire is to have external party sees my company domain in messages sent out from Odoo messaging, instead of seeing the gmail.com account address. I was using company smtp server thinking that I could achieve this desire. May I know if there is anyone who could help, what can I do to achieve the stated desire.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I just created a paid Odoo 8 instance. Did the email integration and company data configuration that I wanted, and now what to create a backup of this clean instance.

There is a Manage Database link at the bottom of web login box to the instance of the Odoo 8 instance I just created.
Click on it, and click on the Backup on the left, key in my password to log in www.erponline.vn, which happens to be the same password to admin of the Odoo 8 instance.

I got a pop up windows with Access Denied.

Wonder what I missed. Any advice please.

Thank you!

Hi All,

My name is Fadli, my company assigning me to set up integrated distribution system covering sales, inventory/warehouse, manufacturing (Master Production Schedule, Material requirement Planning), I think the rightness and perfectness it must be integrated with accounting too. But for now, I’ll focusing on sales, inventory/warehouse and manufacturing.

I don't know specifically and sure detailed about proper choice open source ERP that suitable for our company business process. The fast way it's absolutely hiring professional ERP consultant that can help us more accurate, fast to decide. But, the company trust me to learn and finding first, before hiring consultant. It's good for the company and me too.

From the middle December 2015, I Have 3 candidates open source ERP. Openbravo, Adempiere and Odoo. I don't have good method in deciding and comparing and have no a lot of time what the best from 3. But I spent a few days to learn from my coach, mentor, colleague and google also.

So, in the end of December 2015 I'm decided to choose odoo. The reasons is :
1. Absolutely open source and have proprietary product too.
2. Web based
3. Have all basic functionality between community and proprietary versions.
4. Have all database and all core applications.
5. The software covers all the standard warehousing, manufacturing, and sales channels
6. Powerful web interface I think
7. Better I have chosen one than no one.
8. If you asked me, is this the most suitable than Adempiere or Openbravo, I will answer "I need more time to learn 3 of that", but I have looking in mailing list, forum, community from other people experience.

I have several questions, but before that I'll illustrate my company :
1. Our company is manufacturing factory
2. From raw material until finish good, the product through many production section, its about 9 work centers production.
3. Our production method based on customer order, it seems "make to order", cmiiw. But, on production, we can't producing using fixed number or sure number of goods production, we need to defining yield percentage before production. For example if we want to produce 1000 goods, we must planning about 1100. Because we have pareto in production like defect, broken or failed goods and etc. We can take temporarily conclusion, although our method is "make to order", our production section will create some stock of goods after production, it's means, in next production, before we are planning production, we need to check last stock first.
4. We have many work center, it means, we have multilevel bill of material. For illustration, the picture below I hope can help to understand what its need.

 

For last two months, I've installing, try to understand odoo 9 using my existing business case in our company, I try to create sales order then automatically create manufacturing order. I have some big question.
The question is :
1. When the sales order created, can we check stock first? If the needs ready on stock, so no need to create manufacturing orders. But if the stock only have some, then then the system create automatically the rest of needs.
2. Can system automatically create multi level manufacturing orders, of course in every levels always checking the stock first? The trigger is not the minimum stock limit, but the sales orders from customer. So, if the stock has 0, if no orders from customer, no need to create stock. But, if you have stock 1500, and the orders is need 2000, so system will automatically create the rest of needs, 500. See the picture below to illustrate.

 

The question is :
3. Which the suitable version of odoo, 9 or 8 ? since odoo 9 still lack of documentation and forum/mailing list.

4. I'm very appreciated if somebody sharing to me link tutorial / pdf / video. How to proper setup the "setting" in each module like sales, purchase, warehouse/inventory, manufacturing, so I can learn how to setup the right setting for my business case from example.

5. I would appreciate too, if somebody wanna discussing with me using skype, email, facebook or anything.

Hello,
i have developed website in odoo 10 and, I have installed recruitment module in my website, I can create new jobs from front end but when i am trying to access Recruitment/Employee menu in back end not performing any action. And can not find general settings menu in my back end too. I can not find issue why there is no any general settings menu in my module.

I am working on a custom module for Odoo 9 that interacts HR contract (model hr.contract).
My situation is that I want raise onchange event on employee_id field but the onchange method was originally written in old API with the combination of a Python method and XML definition as below:

    def onchange_employee_id(self, cr, uid, ids, employee_id, context=None):
        if not employee_id:
            return {'value': {'job_id': False, 'department_id': False}}
        emp_obj = self.pool.get('hr.employee').browse(cr, uid, employee_id, context=context)
        job_id = dept_id = False
        if emp_obj.job_id:
            job_id = emp_obj.job_id.id
        if emp_obj.department_id:
            dept_id = emp_obj.department_id.id
        return {'value': {'job_id': job_id, 'department_id': dept_id}}

<field name="employee_id" on_change="onchange_employee_id(employee_id)"/>
