Two complementary fixes — a real bug in the Manager Desk and demo
data that exercises the now-correct view.
The bug
=======
manager_controller.py used an explicit allow-list of WO states for
its Unassigned / Active columns and for the per-operator team load
count: ('pending','waiting','ready','progress'). That set MISSED the
'blocked' state Odoo emits when a WO's predecessor isn't done yet.
Result: an MO whose first WO is still running has all its downstream
WOs in 'blocked' state. They literally don't appear on the Manager
Desk — neither in "Needs a Worker" (even when unassigned) nor in
"In Progress" (even when assigned). The team load count also
under-reports because the operator's blocked queue is invisible.
Fix: switch all three domains from an allow-list to a deny-list
('done','cancel'). Same shape Plant Overview already uses, so the
two dashboards now agree on what "active" means.
Demo data
=========
Stage-filler gains two steps so the now-corrected view has obvious
data:
6e. _populate_active_wos walks the in-flight MO's blocked routing
and explicitly assigns the seven downstream WOs in sequence
order — Diego (training), Carlos (plating), James (demask),
Priya (oven), TWO unassigned (de-rack + post-bake — feed
"Needs a Worker"), Aisha (final inspection). Earlier
keyword-fuzzy matching missed WOs whose names didn't carry
the expected substring.
6f. _mark_so_awaiting_manager pushes two confirmed SOs to
receiving_status='inspected' + assigned_manager_id=False so
the "Awaiting Assignment" KPI is non-zero.
Verified on entech: 2 unassigned WOs, 6 active+assigned, 2
awaiting-assignment SOs. Six of seven operators carry at least one
open queue item; Marie has zero current load but a healthy past
completion history (she's on shift, between jobs).

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.

Root cause of the stuck "Loading manager data..." spinner: the overview
endpoint included a search_count on sale.order.x_fc_workflow_stage,
which is a non-stored computed field. Odoo 19 raised:
ValueError: Cannot convert sale.order.x_fc_workflow_stage to SQL
because it is not stored
The controller silently logged the error; the JS caught and swallowed
the RPC failure, leaving state.overview=null forever. So the UI just
kept spinning while production changed around the manager.
Fixes:
1. Controller (manager_controller.py)
- "Awaiting assignment SOs" is now computed from STORED fields only:
state='sale' AND x_fc_receiving_status='inspected'
AND x_fc_assigned_manager_id=False
Same stage, legal SQL.
- Whole endpoint wrapped in try/except; failures return
{'ok': False, 'error': '...'} so the UI can surface them instead
of dying silently.
- Response carries a payload_hash (md5 of the JSON body minus
user_name). If the client sends back known_hash and nothing has
moved, the server returns {'unchanged': True, 'payload_hash': ...}
and the client skips the repaint entirely. Keeps the UI quiet
between polls.
2. OWL component (manager_dashboard.js)
- Poll cadence tightened from 30s → 8s (production-pace).
- Unchanged payloads don't mutate state.overview → no re-render,
no flash. Live dot just updates its tooltip.
- Changed payloads do an in-place MERGE of the overview (copying
scalars/arrays onto the existing reactive object) instead of
replacing it wholesale. OWL's diff only re-renders rows that
actually moved.
- isFetching guard so overlapping polls can't stack up.
- state.loadError surfaces backend errors in a red banner with a
Retry button — no more silent spinner.
3. UX
- Live dot next to the title: soft green at rest, bright green
pulsing during a fetch.
- "Updated Xs ago" subtitle uses a getter so the label freshens
between polls.
- Manual Refresh button next to Quick/Detailed toggle.
- Spinner only appears on the genuine first load; gone forever
once the first payload lands.
Verified: the old crashing query now runs clean on demo data; odoo
logs show zero errors for the last 5 minutes of polling.

Completes the worker-access story. Handoffs now route themselves.
New model fp.work.role with 8 seeded defaults (noupdate so shops can
rename/prune):
masking · racking · plating_op · demask · oven · derack ·
inspection · rework
Each one has a code, icon, description, sequence, active flag.
Config menu: Configuration → Shop Roles (manager-only).
Field additions:
hr.employee.x_fc_work_role_ids (Many2many) — tag workers with the
roles they perform. One-person shop: one employee, every role.
Specialised shop: one role per employee. Cross-trained: multiple.
fusion.plating.process.node.x_fc_work_role_id (Many2one) — tag
each recipe operation with the role that performs it.
mrp.workorder.x_fc_work_role_id (Many2one) — copied from the recipe
operation on WO generation.
Auto-assignment on WO generation:
_generate_workorders_from_recipe() now copies the operation's role
onto the WO, then calls _fp_pick_worker_for_role() which picks the
least-loaded employee (active WO count) with that role. WO lands in
their Tablet "My Queue" the moment the MO is confirmed. No manual
routing needed for the common case.
Tablet Station — worker mode:
/fp/shopfloor/tablet_overview now filters to WOs where
x_fc_assigned_user_id == env.user when the field is populated.
KPIs (WOs Ready / In Progress) reflect the logged-in worker's load,
not shop-wide totals. "My Queue" rows carry wo_state + can_start +
can_finish so inline Start/Finish buttons appear.
New JS handlers onStartWo / onFinishWo call /fp/shopfloor/start_wo
and /fp/shopfloor/stop_wo (finish=true). One-tap progression.
Views:
hr.employee form gets a "Shop Roles" notebook page with many2many_tags.
Process node form gets x_fc_work_role_id inline after work_center_id.
Work Order form shows role + assigned worker.
Smoke-tested end-to-end on WH/MO/00010:
Masking → Administrator (masking role)
Racking → Administrator (racking role)
E-Nickel → Andrew (plating_op, least-loaded tiebreaker)
Demask → Administrator (masking)
Oven bake → Andrew (oven)
Derack → Administrator (racking fallback)
Post-plate QA → Administrator (inspection)
80 existing WOs backfilled with role + worker via name-match.

New client action "Manager Desk" under Shop Floor menu (manager-only).
Three-column dashboard designed for the shop manager's daily job:
Column 1 — Needs a Worker
MOs with active WOs missing user assignment. Each card expands to
show per-WO rows with:
- Assign Worker dropdown (pulls from group_fusion_plating_operator)
- Tank swap dropdown (all tanks with current bath)
- Take Over (claims for the manager in one click)
- Open (jump to WO form)
Column 2 — In Progress
MOs with workers actively running WOs. Shows who's on each step,
lets manager reassign or take over if someone steps away.
Column 3 — Team
Avatar grid of operators with live queue + in-progress counts.
Click to drill into that operator's full WO list.
KPI strip on top: Unassigned WOs, In Progress, Ready to Ship, Awaiting
Assignment SOs.
Quick / Detailed view toggle — Detailed auto-expands every card body.
New field mrp.workorder.x_fc_assigned_user_id (indexed, tracked) —
the worker currently owning this step. Will be the pivot the Tablet
Station filters on in Chunk 4.
Three new endpoints:
/fp/manager/overview — dashboard snapshot (30s auto-refresh)
/fp/manager/assign_worker — set user on a WO
/fp/manager/assign_tank — swap tank on a WO
/fp/manager/take_over — manager claims the WO (no-show coverage)
Controller is graceful when mrp module isn't installed (empty overview,
no crash) and when the bridge_mrp assignment field isn't present (falls
back to showing all active WOs as "unassigned").
Verified: 4 WOs assigned across 2 users, overview queries return the
expected counts, res.groups.user_ids (Odoo 19 API, not deprecated .users).

Tablet Station rebuilt as a live dashboard (not just a QR scanner):
* KPI strip — WOs Ready/Progress, Awaiting/Missed bakes,
First-Piece pending, Quality Holds (each tinted by state)
* Active WO banner with pulsing indicator when a WO is running
* My Queue panel (left) — priority-badged operator next-up list,
clickable rows that jump to the WO/bake/gate form
* Baths tile grid (right) — last-log status chips, MTO count,
hover jump to chemistry log
* Bake Windows list — inline Start/End/Open actions, colour-coded
by state (awaiting / in-progress / missed)
* First-Piece Gates — Pass/Fail buttons for pending inspections
* Quality Holds — Review jump when any open holds exist
* Station picker + scan drawer (collapsed by default)
* 30s auto-refresh, persists picked station in localStorage
New controller endpoints: /fp/shopfloor/tablet_overview,
/fp/shopfloor/pair_station, /fp/shopfloor/mark_gate.
Demo seeder (Phase 12.5) now populates:
* 5 shop-floor stations (Plating, Bake, Inspection, Shipping, Receiving)
* +3 bake windows (awaiting / in-progress / near-due)
* 4 first-piece gates (1 pending, 1 passed+released, 1 passed-holding, 1 failed)
* 2 quality holds on active MOs (one on_hold, one under_review)
All four Shop Floor menu pages (Plant Overview, Tablet Station, Bake
Windows, First-Piece Gates) now have meaningful content.
