- Send a list everyday.
Similar reminders are usually prepared for project tasks, opportunities, planned deliveries or incoming shipments, etc.
Planned events --> to get events which will happen in forthcoming periods
- Choose Event as an object for this reminder
- Define a period as Start Date the last week, including this (it would be 'this week'), or the next 3 weeks
- Make no filters
- As columns apply Event name, Location, Start Date, End Date

Similar reminders are Okay for activities, tasks, leads, deliveries, incoming shipments, etc.
Customer project statistics --> to notify customers about their tasks

- Send a list on the 10th of January each year.
Similar statistics is frequently forwarded by support tickets, paid invoices, done sale orders, etc.
Configurable statistic and appearance
Send a table right in an email or/and as Excel (xlsx) table.
Reminder view features
- The tool allows choosing an unlimited number of columns for this document. It might be any field of a target model of the following types: char, text, html, integer, float, selection, boolean, date, datetime and relations to other documents (many2one, one2many, many2many). The set includes even computed fields
- For relational fields you might choose the second level precision. For example, you might show a phone of a customer for a sales orders' reminder or tags' colors for tasks
- It is possible to adapt column names. By default a field description is stated (on the language of this reminder), but users are allowed to change them
- Optionally attach an xlsx table for reminders. It would have the same columns as a reminder itself. It is also possible to exclude a list from email and leave only an xlsx table
- Include or exclude links to Odoo objects. References are great in case of internal reminders, but they are harmful in case of external ones
- Introduce any greeting text for a notification
- Choose reminders' language
- Do not change email template manually. It will break all styles. Look at the Configuration tab

Filtering and periods for analysis
Apply any sort of filters to include only required documents
How to limit documents by relative periods
- Restrict time frames by any date or datetime of a target document type. It might be deadline, create or close date, next activity day, etc.
- If you wish, apply a few periods based on different dates. For instance, select this month closed leads which have been opened the last year. Records should satisfy all of the criteria, however if you selected the same date twice, records should be within any of those periods. For example, a deadline should be within the last 2 months OR the next month AND a close date should be within the last year
- Periods are relative, so they are periods in comparison to today. E.g., 'this month', 'the last year', 'the next 5 weeks'
- Intervals may both define previous time frames ('the last') and forthcoming periods ('the next')
- As intervals select days, weeks, months, or years
- Exclude or include a current period. For example, you might send a reminder on the first day of a month for a previous one. Vice versa, forward a list on the last day of this month for a current one
- Test your settings according to a real-time-shown result below the table
How to filter documents under analysis
- Filters are organized as a domain constructor: you may use the most of storable fields with any level of precision. The latter means, for example, you can filter sales orders by a related partner country or even by a state of a company of a related partner
- Use both 'AND' ('all') and 'OR' ('any') operators to achieve a desired result
- Check yourself by pressing the button 'Records': it would show all documents which at the moment satisfy your search criteria (and you have an access to)
- If you feel confident to prepare Reverse Polish Notation domains, turn on the debug mode, and apply more complex expressions such as, for instance, ' category is child_of all'

Flexible recurrence
Which periodicity I may apply
- Send a reminder every day, each 5 days, each 181 days
- Notify by exact weekdays, e.g. on Mondays and Thursdays
- For monthly reminders use:
- The first month day
- The last month day
- The exact date, e.g. the 16th
- A weekday, for instance, the first Monday, the last Friday, or the third Tuesday
- Prepare a yearly statistics on an exact year day, e.g. on the first of September

User rights peculiarities
- To observe the reminders' menu and configure new notifications, select the right 'Lists Reminder Manager' in this user settings
- Make sure you trust such a person. This user would be able to send any data by a document type to which he/she has a read access. It means, that if a user might read leads in general, but do not have rights to read the exact lead 'XXX', he/she would be able to send the data by the lead 'XXX' using the reminder
- To configure a reminder by this document type, a user should have a read access to such a model. For example, an employee without the right 'Warehouse user' might not prepare a reminder by deliveries

Reminder managers may configure lists only for documents they can read
Great and very useful app
First of all, the team behind this app is great, support is immediate, and response is fast. The application is very useful in managing any type of notification to keep you updated with all what's happening within your company.
Conseils de configuration et d'installation pour Periodic Reporting and Reminders Odoo v.12
Python dependency
To provide the feature of dynamic Excel table generation, install the Python library xlsxwriter:
pip install xlsxwriter
Email template
The basic reminder appearance should not be configured through Odoo email templates. In the debug mode go to:
- Settings > Technical > Email > Templates > Reminder
Do not change this template! Otherwise, its styles would be broken, and you would receive blank emails.
Have you broken everything? Not a problem, remove this template and update the module. The email appearance will be recovered.
Scheduled job (cron)
By default Odoo checks whether any reminder should be sent on a daily basis. You can change a frequency or time of check. In the debug mode go to:
- Settings > Technical > Automation > Scheduled Actions > Lists Reminders
The situation for a higher frequency is when you have many reminders with a lot records to search. In that case the cron job might be not ready with all actions in time, and it is better to repeat the check. However, be cautious: do not make it too frequent. Otherwise, one job would not be fulfilled until another one, and Odoo would collapse until a reminder is sent.
The cron job interval should be bigger than your Odoo configured timeout. Sometimes it is required to increase a timeout, if a number of documents in a list accounts for a few thousands records.
The module is not aimed to export data from Odoo. Do not try to send everyday your whole database.

Questions fréquentes sur Periodic Reporting and Reminders Odoo v.12
Quelles sont les politiques de mise a jour de vos outils ?
Selon les politiques actuelles de l'Odoo Apps Store :
- Chaque module achete pour la version 12.0 et anterieure donne acces a toutes les versions jusqu'a 12.0.
- A partir de la version 13.0, chaque version du module doit etre achetee separement.
- Quel que soit le numero, l'achat donne droit a toutes les mises a jour et corrections au sein d'une version majeure.
L'equipe faOtools ne controle pas ces politiques. Pour toute question, contactez directement les representants de l'Odoo Apps Store.
Comment installer votre application sur Odoo.sh ?
L'approche la plus directe est le flux integre de la boutique Odoo :
1. Ouvrez la page du module et cliquez sur Deploy on odoo.sh
2. Vous etes redirige vers GitHub. Connectez-vous, puis cliquez sur Create a new repo ou utilisez un depot existant. Le depot doit etre prive. Il est interdit de publier les applications sous licence OPL-1. Creez un nouveau depot pour le projet Odoo.sh si besoin
3. Ensuite, dans odoo.sh, cliquez sur Deploy, confirmez et cliquez sur Continue. L'installation demarre.
Ces etapes installent l'application sur la branche de production. Pour d'autres branches ou une mise a jour :
1. Telechargez le code source depuis la boutique Odoo
2. Commitez le module dans le depot GitHub requis. Aucun dossier/fichier de l'app ne doit etre ignore (.gitignore). Les depots crees par odoo.sh ignorent parfois des chemins importants (par ex. /lib). Envoyez tous les repertoires et fichiers du module
3. Deployez la branche cible du projet odoo.sh, ou attendez la construction automatique si vos parametres le prevoient.
Comment installer votre application sur mon propre serveur ?
2. Redemarrez le serveur Odoo;
3. Activez le mode developpeur (parametres techniques);
4. Mettez a jour la liste des applications (menu Applications);
5. Trouvez l'application et cliquez sur Activate/Install;
6. Suivez les consignes de la page de l'application s'il y en a.
Votre application a des modules complementaires. Puis-je les acheter plus tard ?
Oui. Odoo ajoute automatiquement toutes les dependances au panier : excluez les outils deja achetes pour eviter un double paiement.
J'ai deploye votre application sur Odoo.sh et je vois un avertissement/erreur dans les tests
Un avertissement rouge/orange n'affecte pas les fonctions de l'application. Parfois nos modules echouent aux tests automatiques standard, car ceux-ci attendent un comportement contraire aux objectifs de l'app. Par exemple, nous changeons le calcul du prix alors que les tests Odoo comparent le prix final a l'algorithme standard.
Verifiez d'abord les fonctions de la base deployee. Tout fonctionne-t-il ?
Si vous pensez encore que l'avertissement affecte les fonctions reelles, contactez-nous avec les journaux d'installation complets et la liste complete des modules deployes (coeur et tiers).
Puis-je acheter votre application directement aupres de vous ?
Non, nous distribuons les outils uniquement via le magasin officiel d'applications Odoo.
Je souhaiterais une reduction
Malheureusement, nous n'avons pas les moyens techniques de proposer des prix individuels.
Puis-je installer l'application sur ma base Odoo Online (SaaS) ?
Non, les applications tierces ne peuvent pas etre utilisees sur Odoo Online. Odoo SaaS bloque cette possibilite.
Votre outil depend d'autres applications. Dois-je les acheter ?
Oui, l'outil a besoin de tous les modules indiques en dependances. Le prix affiche sur la page inclut deja ces dependances.
Quel est le prix du module en dollars US ? Pourquoi a-t-il change ?
Le prix de nos modules est fixe en euros. La boutique Odoo convertit les prix selon son taux de change interne. Le prix en dollars US peut donc changer lorsque ce taux est mis a jour.
Les textes de l'application et du site web dans des langues autres que l'anglais sont assistés par l'IA et alignés sur les traductions officielles d'Odoo. Si vous remarquez une erreur, envoyer un ticket de traduction et nous le corrigerons.
