Filter the noise, find the conversation

A labeled, multi-select toolbar for the Odoo chatter that separates human replies from system tracking and activity logs — with search, sort, grouping, presets, and CSV export, all remembered per user.

The problem

Every busy record's chatter mixes real human replies with automatic "Stage changed" and "Field updated" tracking lines and scheduled activity entries. On high-traffic leads, tickets, and invoices, a handful of meaningful messages gets buried under dozens of system notifications, and there is no built-in way to separate the two — users are left scrolling and eyeballing a wall of undifferentiated entries.

The solution

A toolbar appears directly above every chatter, classifying each entry as a User, System, or Activity log. Toggle any combination of categories, search by keyword or author, sort and group the results, jump to one-click presets, and export the filtered set to CSV — your preferences are remembered automatically the next time you open any record.

Capabilities

Everything you need to tame the chatter

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Three labeled log categories

Every chatter entry is automatically classified as a User, System, or Activity log, shown as clearly labeled, color-coded chips with a live count for each category.

02

Multi-select filtering

Show any combination of categories at once — for example User and Activity together while hiding System noise — instead of switching between one type at a time.

03

Hidden-entries counter

A visible badge shows exactly how many entries are currently suppressed by your filter, so you always know you are not missing anything relevant.

04

Keyword and author search

Search within the filtered results by message text or author name to jump straight to a specific reply, without leaving the chatter.

05

Sort and group

Reorder the stream by date, author, or log type in either direction, or switch to a grouped view with clear category headers for long histories.

06

One-click presets

Jump to common views instantly — Everything, User replies only, System in the last 24 hours, Activities only, or Audit trail — without manually configuring filters each time.

07

CSV export

Export the currently filtered set of chatter entries to a CSV file for auditing or sharing, gated behind a dedicated security group that is granted to internal users by default.

08

Per-user persistence

Your chosen categories, sort order, and grouping are saved to your user profile and applied automatically across every record and every session.

09

Built-in guidance

A help icon in the toolbar explains what each filter does, so first-time users understand the value immediately without external documentation.

Workflow

How it works

1

Open a record

Open the chatter on any record with a message history — a lead, ticket, task, invoice, or contact.

2

Toggle categories

Click the User, System, or Activity chips to show or hide each log type in any combination.

3

Search, sort, or group

Narrow the results further with keyword search, reorder by date, author, or type, or switch to grouped view.

4

Export or move on

Export the filtered set to CSV if needed — your filter preferences are saved automatically for next time.
