In this chapter, we will cover advanced searching, custom filters, and dashboards. We begin by looking at how Odoo searches the various datasets within the system. Next, we explore more advanced searching options and discuss how you can save these filters so that they can be easily accessed when you need them. Finally, we discuss the Odoo dashboard capabilities and how we can improve usability for users.

The topics covered in this chapter include the following:

• Identifying users' search requirements
• Understanding default filters versus custom filters
• Grouping items in a list
