Activating Developer Mode

Groups
Groups are created to define rules to models within an application.
When you click on Settings > Users & Companies > Groups, you will be directed to a list of the current groups of which you are a part of.
Access Rights
The Portal and Public options do not allow you to choose access rights. Members have specific ones (such as record rules and restricted menus) and usually do not belong to the usual Odoo groups.
Access Rights rules are the first level of rights. The field is composed of the object name, which is the technical name given to a model. For each model, enable the following options as appropriate:
- Read: the values of that object can be only seen by the user
- Write: the values of that object can be edited by the user
- Create: values for that object can be created by the user
- Delete: the values of that object can be deleted by the user
Record Rules
As a second layer of editing and visibility rules, Record Rules can be formed. They overwrite or refine, the Access Rights. A record rule is written using a Domain. Domains are conditions used to filter and/or search data. Therefore, a domain expression is a list of conditions. For each rule, choose among the following options: Read, Write, Create and Delete values.
