Earlier I built report_fp_so_acknowledgement.xml as a separate
customer-facing document. On review there was no good reason — our
existing report_fp_sale.xml already flips its title between
"Quotation" and "Sales Order" based on state, and carried ~90% of
the same content. Two documents would have meant the shop had to
remember which to send when, and the customer would get two
near-identical PDFs in their inbox.
Consolidation:
1. Merged the four unique blocks from the acknowledgement into
report_fp_sale.xml (both portrait AND landscape variants):
- CUSTOMER JOB # / PLANNED START / CUSTOMER DEADLINE / SHIP VIA
info row (shown only when any of those fields is populated)
- Blanket / block-partial highlight-box callout (shown only
when the flags are set)
- External notes (x_fc_external_note) block above Terms and
Conditions
2. Deleted fusion_plating_reports/report/report_fp_so_acknowledgement.xml
and removed it from the module manifest. Also purged the orphan
ir.actions.report and ir.ui.view DB rows + the stale
ir.model.data entries.
3. Re-pointed the fp_mail_template_so_confirmed mail template's
report_template_ids from the now-gone acknowledgement report to
action_report_fp_sale_portrait. Updated hooks.py accordingly; the
hook now uses "set" semantics (replace all) instead of "add" so
re-running it cleans up stale attachments from prior refactors.
4. UAT on S00071: the Send button pre-selects the FP: Order
Confirmation template with SalesOrder_S00071.pdf attached. The
PDF renders with the new plating rows populated — Customer Job #
AMPH-2026-0420-01, Customer Deadline 05/14/2026 08:00:00 PM,
"Partial shipments blocked" callout, all lines + totals.
One PDF, one Send button behaviour, matching what Odoo and most
ERP systems do.

Database stores datetimes naive-UTC, but the dashboards and emails were
showing UTC strings to users in EST/EDT — making 9pm Toronto look like 1am
the next day. Adds a single helper module + auto-detection on install.
Core changes (fusion_plating):
- New fp_tz.py helper: fp_user_tz, fp_format, fp_isoformat_utc, fp_time_ago
Resolves user.tz → company.x_fc_default_tz → UTC.
- res.company.x_fc_default_tz Selection (full pytz IANA list)
- res.config.settings exposes the company tz under a new "Regional
Settings" block in Settings > Fusion Plating
- post_init_hook auto-populates the tz on first install: tries admin
user → server /etc/timezone → America/Toronto fallback
- fp_process_node._to_dict now sends create_date/write_date as ISO with
explicit +00:00 marker so JS new Date() parses it as UTC and the
recipe tree editor's "time ago" math works correctly
Shop-floor controllers:
- shopfloor_controller.py: every fields.Datetime.to_string() and naive
.strftime() swapped for fp_format(env, ...) — due_at, bake times,
last_log_date, gates, server_time all now in user's tz
- _time_ago() removed; replaced with fp_time_ago helper which compares
tz-aware datetimes (the local one was naive-vs-naive and could be
off by hours)
- manager_controller.py date_planned: str(...)[:10] slice replaced
with fp_format MM/DD in user's tz
Notifications + reports:
- mail_template_data.xml: 5 .strftime() calls in body_html → babel
format_datetime / format_date with tz=(user.tz or company tz)
- report_fp_job_traveller.xml: rec.received_date (Datetime) gets
t-options="{'widget':'datetime'}" so Odoo's QWeb renders in user tz
Settings view layout:
- fusion_plating now owns the Settings page "Fusion Plating" app shell
- fusion_plating_certificates xpaths into it instead of redefining
(prevents app-name collision)
Verified on odoo-entech (LXC 111): post_init_hook detects
America/Toronto from /etc/timezone, MO date_start 2026-04-17 05:28 UTC
correctly displays as 2026-04-17 01:28 EDT.
Module versions bumped: fusion_plating 19.0.3.0.0,
fusion_plating_shopfloor 19.0.9.0.0, plus certificates / notifications /
reports → 19.0.3.0.0.
