Products App¶
Overview¶
The Products App module adds a top-level Products icon to the Odoo main app menu, giving you direct access to the product catalog without navigating through the Sales or Inventory menus.
This is a lightweight convenience module. It creates menu entries only -- it does not add any models, fields, or business logic.
