+## Removing menus/records — Odoo does NOT auto-delete orphans
+Deleting a `<menuitem>` (or any `<record>`) from a data XML file does NOT remove the corresponding database row. The XML loader only updates records it sees; orphans persist in `ir.ui.menu` / `ir.model.data` until you delete them explicitly. Symptom: the menu still appears in the UI after `-u`. Fix — add a `<delete>` directive in a data file with `noupdate="0"`:
+```xml
+<delete model="ir.ui.menu" id="module_name.menu_xmlid_to_remove"/>
+```
+Caught 2026-05-22 when the Phase 3 Plant Overview menu kept showing alongside the new Workstation menu after deploy.

 ## Odoo 19 ir.cron — `numbercall` and `doall` are gone
 The legacy `numbercall=-1` (run-forever) and `doall=False` (catch-up-missed) fields were removed from `ir.cron` in Odoo 19. Including them in `<record model="ir.cron">` data XML produces:
