How to Configure Field Cleaning Rules in Odoo 17 | Odoo 17 Data Cleaning Module | Odoo 17 Tutorials
5Odoo 17's Data Cleaning module offers a handy feature called "Field Cleaning Rules" to improve data consistency and quality within specific fields of your Odoo records. Here's a breakdown of configuring these rules in under 400 words:
Accessing Field Cleaning Rules:
Navigate to Data Cleaning: Go to the "Data Cleaning" module within Odoo 17.
Configuration Menu: Click on the "Configuration" menu and then select "Field Cleaning Rules."
Defining a Cleaning Rule:
Select Model: Choose the data model you want to clean, such as "contacts," "partners," or "products."
Choose Field to Clean: Specify the exact field within the model where you want to apply cleaning rules. This could be a field for email addresses, names, or phone numbers.
Cleaning Mode: Decide on the cleaning approach:
Automatic: Odoo automatically cleans data based on your defined rules.
Manual: Odoo suggests data cleaning actions, but you'll need to review and confirm them.
Action Selection: Pick the specific cleaning operation you want to perform. Common options include:
Set Case Type: Convert text to uppercase, lowercase, or proper case for consistency.
Trim Spaces: Remove unnecessary spaces before or after text entries.
Format Phone: Standardize phone number display format.
Additional Considerations:
Multiple Rules (Optional): If needed, you can define multiple cleaning rules for the same field. The order of the rules matters as Odoo applies them sequentially.
Advanced Options (Optional): Explore options like data scrubbing (https://www.cybrosys.com/odoo/odoo-books/odoo-book-v15/odoo-data-cleaning/) to remove HTML tags from text fields (availability might depend on your Odoo version).
Benefits of Field Cleaning Rules:
Enhanced Data Quality: Ensures consistency and accuracy of data within specific fields, leading to better reporting and analysis.
Time Saved: Automates data cleaning tasks, saving you valuable time and effort.
Improved Search Accuracy: Cleaned data fields allow more accurate filtering and searching within your Odoo system.
By effectively configuring field cleaning rules in Odoo 17, you can streamline data management, maintain data integrity, and ultimately gain better insights from your data.
