Forward any Discuss message everywhere it needs to go.

Relay channel messages, direct messages and chatter notes with attachments, sender and timestamp intact, to any mix of channels, people and records, in one action, with a full audit trail of every forward.

The problem

Odoo Discuss has no built-in way to relay an existing message into another conversation. Teams copy-paste text that loses formatting and sender attribution, re-upload attachments by hand, or fall back to email forwarding that leaves the thread outside Odoo entirely. Finding an older message to forward means scrolling a busy channel, and once a message is sent there is no record of where it went, to whom, or when.

The solution

Search Discuss messages by sender and date, select one or several, and forward them in a single action to any mix of channels, direct-message recipients and record chatters. Attachments, the original author and the timestamp travel with the message, a saved comment template adds context in seconds, and every forward is written to a permanent audit log.

Capabilities

Everything a Discuss forwarding workflow needs

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Attachments preserved

Every attachment on the original message travels with the forward, so recipients never have to ask for a re-upload.

02

Optional forwarding note

Add a note explaining why a message is being relayed, in rich text, before it reaches its destination.

03

Forward to channels, chats and chatters

Send to Discuss channels, direct-message a partner, or drop the message straight onto a record's chatter, all from the same wizard.

04

One action, many destinations

Pick several channels and recipients at once and forward to all of them together, instead of repeating the send one destination at a time.

05

Native Discuss integration

A Forward action sits right in the message's own menu in Discuss, so there is nothing new to learn.

06

Find-before-forward search

Filter messages by sender and date from a dedicated search screen, then bulk-select the ones to forward.

07

Per-message audit log

Every forward is recorded with who sent it, when, and exactly where it went, so nothing is lost or duplicated silently.

08

Reusable comment templates

Save common forwarding notes as templates and apply them in one click instead of retyping the same context.

09

Configurable destination limit

Cap the number of destinations allowed per forward from Settings, to keep large broadcasts under control.

Workflow

How it works

1

Find the message

Search Discuss messages by sender and date, or open the Forward action directly from a message in Discuss.

2

Pick destinations

Select any mix of channels, direct-message recipients, and a record's chatter as the forward targets.

3

Add context

Apply a saved comment template or write a note, then confirm; attachments and original attribution carry over automatically.

4

Review the trail

Check the audit log any time to see exactly who forwarded what, where it went, and when.
