One switch for every unwanted follower

Stop Odoo from auto-subscribing salespeople, buyers, invoice users, warehouse staff, customers and vendors to Sales, Purchase, Invoicing and Inventory documents — from one settings page.

The problem

The moment a Sales Order, Purchase Order, invoice, bill or transfer is created or reassigned, Odoo silently subscribes the responsible salesperson, buyer or warehouse user — and often the customer or vendor too. Every one of those follows can trigger an email. Multiply that across departments and inboxes fill up with notifications nobody asked for.

The solution

One "Disable Followers" settings page with independent toggles for internal staff and for customers/vendors, across Sales, Purchase, Invoicing and Inventory — plus an option to keep the follower but silence the notification email. Manually adding a follower from the chatter always keeps working.

Capabilities

Every follower channel, one page

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Stop Sales Order Auto-Follow

Stop subscribing the salesperson as a follower on creation or reassignment of a Sales Order.

02

Stop Purchase Order Auto-Follow

Stop subscribing the buyer as a follower on creation or reassignment of a Purchase Order.

03

Stop Invoicing Auto-Follow

Stop subscribing the invoice user as a follower on invoices, bills, credit notes and debit notes.

04

Stop Inventory Transfer Auto-Follow

Stop subscribing the responsible user as a follower on creation or reassignment of a transfer.

05

Stop Customer/Vendor Follow on Sales & Purchase

Stop subscribing the customer when a quotation is sent or a Sales Order is confirmed, and the vendor when a Purchase Order is confirmed.

06

Stop Customer/Vendor Follow on Invoicing & Transfers

Stop subscribing the customer or vendor when an invoice, bill, credit note or debit note is posted, or when they are set on a receipt or delivery.

07

Suppress Notification Emails

Keep an internal follower on the record for visibility, but silence the assignment notification email Odoo would normally send them.

08

Manual Follows Still Work

Every toggle only blocks the automatic subscription. Adding a follower by hand from the chatter keeps working exactly as before.

09

One Unified Settings Page

Every toggle for Sales, Purchase, Invoicing and Inventory lives on a single "Disable Followers" settings page — no hunting across separate module settings.

Questions

Frequently asked

No sales fog. If your question isn't here, email us and we'll answer it the same way.

No. The toggles only stop the automatic subscription from happening in the first place. Existing followers on already-created records are left untouched.
