Invitations Management

An Odoo application to keep a guest list: name, plus-ones, age, gender, and a VIP flag.

From __manifest__.py:

Key	Value
name	Invitations management
summary	Centralize your invitations
version	1.0.0
license	LGPL-3
depends	base
application	True

The manifest does not pin an Odoo series. Views use classic <tree> (renamed to <list> in Odoo 17+), so this module matches Odoo 14–16.

Why

Event guest lists usually live in spreadsheets. This module is a first-class Odoo model for the same data — searchable, permissioned, and ready to extend with mail or website later.

Features

Exact surface from models/, views/, and security/:

• management.invitation fields:
  • name — guest name
  • plus_ones — extra attendees
  • age
  • gender — Male / Female
  • is_vip
• List view shows name, VIP, and plus-ones; form shows all fields
• Window action also exposes kanban, pivot, and activity view modes
• Menus: Invitations Management → Guest Management → Guest
• ACL: internal users (base.group_user) have full CRUD on invitations

There is no chatter, no mail dependency, and no website RSVP flow.

How it works

  Invitations Management
  └── Guest Management
        └── Guest  →  management.invitation
                      (name, plus_ones, age, gender, is_vip)

Each record is one invited person. Plus-ones are a number on that record, not separate contacts.

Quickstart

Odoo is not started in this workspace. Install on an Odoo 14–16 instance:

1. Copy this folder into your addons path as invitations_management. Access rules reference invitations_management.model_management_invitation, so the directory name must be invitations_management, not the GitHub repo name.
2. Add that path to addons_path and restart Odoo.
3. Enable Developer Mode → Apps → Update Apps List.
4. Search Invitations management and Install.
5. Open the app and create a guest.

No settings page is shipped; all data is on the invitation form.

Limitations

• Manifest description is still To do....
• No RSVP status, email invite, seating, or plus-one child records.
• Gender is a two-value selection only.
• Access XML IDs assume the technical module name invitations_management.
• Not tested on Odoo 17+ (<tree> vs <list>).
