Changing CRM Default Action in Odoo V14
Odoo is a popular open-source suite of business apps written in Python. One of the many features of Odoo is its Customer Relationship Management (CRM) module. This module can be customized to meet the specific needs of a business. In this article, we will discuss how to change the default action for opportunities in the CRM module of Odoo V14.
Context Value
In Odoo, a context is a dictionary of parameters that can be used to customize the behavior of views and forms. The default_team_id parameter in the context of an opportunity record determines the default team assigned to the opportunity. By changing this value, we can change the default action that is taken when an opportunity is created.
Finding the Action
To find the action that we want to set as the default, we need to look at the ir.actions.act_window table in the Odoo database. This table contains all of the actions that can be taken in Odoo. We can search for the action that we want to set as the default by filtering on the name or res_model fields.
Setting the Default Action
Once we have found the action that we want to set as the default, we can change the default_team_id parameter in the context of an opportunity record to point to this action. This can be done using the Odoo API or by modifying the code of the CRM module directly.
Applications
Changing the default action for opportunities in the CRM module can be useful in a number of scenarios. For example, if a business has a specific workflow for handling opportunities, changing the default action can ensure that this workflow is followed consistently. Additionally, if a business has multiple teams working on opportunities, changing the default action can ensure that opportunities are assigned to the correct team.

By changing the default action, businesses can ensure that their specific workflows and processes are followed consistently.
