Your menus, alphabetized top to bottom

Alphabetical Menu Sorting keeps the app switcher, the navbar, and every submenu in predictable A-Z order — with per-user, per-role, pin, and exclude controls no competitor offers.

The problem

Odoo orders menus by install sequence, not by name. As more apps and custom modules pile in, the app switcher and every submenu dropdown turn into a scavenger hunt. Users re-scan the entire list every time because there is no reliable position to expect, and administrators field a steady stream of “where is X?” questions while manually renumbering menu sequences by hand.

The solution

Alphabetical Menu Sorting reorders the top navbar, the app switcher, and every nested submenu alphabetically the moment it installs — A-Z or Z-A, your choice. Administrators keep full control with a one-click toggle, per-menu pin and exclude rules, and per-role defaults; individual users can set their own preference without touching anyone else's view.

Capabilities

Everything you need to tame the menu

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

A-Z or Z-A Sorting

Order the top navbar, the app switcher, and every nested submenu alphabetically, or reverse it to Z-A whenever that reads better for your team.

02

Zero-Config by Default

Sorting is active the moment the module installs — no setup screens to click through before your menus make sense.

03

One-Click Admin Toggle

Flip sorting off instantly from Settings to return to the native install-sequence order — no uninstall, no data loss, no waiting.

04

Pin Menus to the Top

Mark individual apps or submenus as pinned so your team's most-used items always sit first, regardless of alphabetical position.

05

Exclude Menus from Sorting

Protect deliberately ordered or system menus by excluding them — they keep their original slot while everything else sorts around them.

06

Per-User Preference

Every user can opt in or out of sorting from their own Preferences dialog, so the admin default never overrides a personal choice.

07

Per-Role Default

Set a default sorting mode on any group so teams inherit consistent navigation without touching every individual account.

08

Language-Aware Ordering

Accent folding makes sure localized menu names such as école or über sort naturally, not by raw character code.

09

No External Dependencies

A pure server-side override on the menu-loading seam works on Community and Enterprise alike, with no add-on modules required.

Workflow

How it works

1

Install

Alphabetical Menu Sorting activates immediately — the navbar, app switcher, and submenus sort A-Z with zero configuration.

2

Configure

Open Settings to choose A-Z or Z-A, pick what participates (apps, submenus, or both), and toggle sorting on or off for the whole database.

3

Fine-tune

Use Manage Menus to pin favorites to the top or exclude specific menus, keeping deliberate orderings intact.

4

Personalize

Users set their own preference in Preferences, and roles get a default in Groups — so everyone sees the order that works for them.

Questions

Frequently asked

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

Yes. The module depends only on the base web module and uses a server-side override on the menu-loading seam, so it works identically on Community and Enterprise for Odoo 19.
