Odoo Access Record in New Tab: Increase  Productivity with Smart Right-Click Navigation

Managing multiple records in Odoo can sometimes feel slow and repetitive, especially when you need to open records while keeping your list or kanban view intact.

By default, Odoo does not allow users to easily open records in a new tab using a right-click. This limitation can interrupt workflow, reduce efficiency, and make multitasking harder.

That’s where the Odoo Access Record in New Tab module comes in.

What is the Odoo Access Record in the New Tab?

Odoo Access Record in New Tab is a powerful module designed to improve navigation and productivity inside Odoo.

It enables users to:

• Open records in a new browser tab instantly
• Copy direct record links with one click
• Use a smart right-click context menu on list and kanban views

This creates a smoother, faster, and more intuitive user experience.

Why Do You Need This Module?

The Problem with Default Odoo Navigation

In standard Odoo:

• You cannot right-click records to open them in a new tab
• You need to manually duplicate tabs
• Switching between records becomes time-consuming

This slows down workflows, especially for teams handling large volumes of data.
