Private Chat Groups
Send private chatter messages to a whole team (Management, Finance, HR...) in one click: only the group members see them.
Overview
About this app
Some discussions belong to a team, not to everyone who follows a document: margins for management, payment issues for finance, salary questions for HR. In standard Odoo every follower sees every message, and @mentioning each person every time is slow and easy to get wrong.
Private Chat Groups lets you define teams once. In any chatter, switch on the private lock, click the team, and send: only its members see the message and its files — nobody else knows it exists.
| Standard Odoo | With Private Chat Groups |
|---|---|
| Every follower sees every message. | Define your teams once. |
| No way to address a team privately. | Address a team in one click from any chatter. |
| Team discussions move to email and chat apps outside Odoo. | Only the team sees the message and its files. |
| Mentioning each person every time, and forgetting someone. | Combine a team with extra @mentions in the same message. |
How to try it

One click in the chatter
Switch on the lock and click the group chip: every member is addressed.
Hidden from everyone else

Only members can send
A group only appears for its members, so outsiders can't post to it or see who is in it.
