Imports from the old `openerp` namespace: renamed to `odoo` since Odoo 10.0. migration-openerp-import · source
For a target of Odoo 10.0+: use the `__manifest__.py` manifest name instead of `__openerp__.py`. The filename alone does not establish module age or compatibility. migration-openerp-manifest · source
view_attachment_improved_form — For a target of Odoo 17.0+: view 'view_attachment_improved_form' uses `attrs=`/`states=`, which are no longer supported. Convert modifiers to direct Python boolean expressions in `invisible`/`readonly`/`required`; preserve the original AND/OR logic. migration-view-attrs-states · source
view_location_form — For a target of Odoo 17.0+: view 'view_location_form' uses `attrs=`/`states=`, which are no longer supported. Convert modifiers to direct Python boolean expressions in `invisible`/`readonly`/`required`; preserve the original AND/OR logic. migration-view-attrs-states · source
view_task_form — For a target of Odoo 17.0+: view 'view_task_form' uses `attrs=`/`states=`, which are no longer supported. Convert modifiers to direct Python boolean expressions in `invisible`/`readonly`/`required`; preserve the original AND/OR logic. migration-view-attrs-states · source
view_location_tree — View 'view_location_tree' is defined with a `<tree>` root tag: renamed to `<list>` in Odoo 18.0. migration-view-tree-tag · source

Migration review checklist, not a compatibility verdict. No target version is selected: apply version-specific advice only when migrating to that version or later.
