In Odoo form customization, correcting input errors should be effortless—yet one common frustration with radio button fields in Odoo is the inability to reset a selection once it’s made. Traditionally, users must manually select a different option or reload the form to clear a mistaken Odoo selection field choice. The Radio Button Reset Value app solves this problem by introducing an intuitive reset function via a simple double-click.
Designed for efficiency, this Odoo usability improvement module enhances Odoo’s interface by allowing users to instantly clear selections in radio button fields—whether they’re Selection or Many2one fields—without requiring complex workarounds. With seamless integration into Odoo form fields, the app reduces input errors and accelerates Odoo data entry workflows.
Key Features of Radio Button Reset Value
1. Double-click Reset
Users can double-click on a selected radio button to reset its value instantly.
Eliminates the need to reload the form or select another option to clear an incorrect choice.
Enables smoother odoo form input field customization.
2. Multi-Field Support
Works with common Odoo field types:
- Selection fields (single-choice options).
- Many2one fields (e.g., relational models or dropdown-linked radio buttons).
Resets relationships to null for Many2one fields, not just Selection values.
3. Native Odoo Integration
Functions within standard Odoo forms—no extra buttons or steps required.
Automatically applies to existing radio buttons without configuration.
Perfect for companies that rely on Odoo customization services providing company like Reliution.
Real-World Use Cases for Odoo Selection Field Reset
1. Sales Order Configuration
A salesperson configuring product options (e.g., warranty plans) via radio buttons in Odoo sales forms might accidentally select the wrong term. Instead of navigating away or undoing multiple steps, they double-click to erase the selection and start fresh—saving time and reducing sales order input errors.
2. Inventory Attribute Management
When tagging inventory items with radio-button-based attributes (e.g., “Quality Grade: A, B, or C”), warehouse staff can quickly correct misclassified items during audits by resetting the field, ensuring accurate reporting. This reduces human error in Odoo inventory form customization.
