Company-Specific Dynamic Field Visibility
Take full control of your Odoo data presentation. This module allows administrators to
dynamically hide any field from any model based on the active company, ensuring a
cleaner UI and better data privacy across multi-company environments.
Unlike standard UI hacks, this module works at the server level, modifying the view
architecture before it reaches the browser, making fields truly invisible in the DOM.
----------------------------------------
Key Features
✔ Dynamic Configuration
Configure visibility rules directly from the Company form view without touching any code.
✔ Multi-Company Support
Hide fields like 'Cost Price' in Company A while keeping it visible in Company B.
✔ Server-Side Security
Fields are injected with `invisible` attributes at the view level, ensuring they are not rendered in the browser DOM.
✔ Universal Compatibility
Works across Form, List (Tree), and Kanban views globally.
✔ Smart Create Mode
Automatically shows fields during record creation so users can fill in required data, then hides them on existing records.
✔ Relational Selection
Easy-to-use Many2one model selection and Many2many field selection for error-free setup.
----------------------------------------
Benefits
- Enhanced Security: Prevent sensitive information from being inspected in the browser.
- Improved UX: Reduce clutter by hiding unnecessary fields for specific companies.
- No Coding Required: Eliminate the need for custom inherited XML views for simple field hiding.
- High Performance: Optimized with company-aware view caching.
----------------------------------------
⚙ Technical Highlights
- Patches `get_view` at the base level for ultimate reliability.
- Intelligent parent wrapper hiding (hides labels and divs if the field inside is hidden).
- Company-specific view cache keys to prevent cross-company data leakage.
----------------------------------------
⚠️ Important Note
*This module dynamically modifies the view architecture. If a field has a hardcoded, complex Python expression in its `invisible` attribute in the original XML view, this module may be overridden by that expression depending on the Odoo version and view logic.*
----------------------------------------
Ideal For
- Large multi-company organizations.
- Odoo instances with sensitive financial or technical data fields.
- Administrators who want to simplify complex views per company.
