The manual, right inside Odoo — context-aware help on every screen.
ownERP-Helper brings your documentation into Odoo itself: one click on the question-mark icon opens the right help for the screen you are on — no manual, no browser tab, no interruption of your workflow. Every Equitania module ships its own help, and your own team can add or edit pages directly in Odoo — complete with screenshots, a draft→publish workflow and full version history.
Features
Help on every screen, in one click
A question-mark icon sits permanently in the Odoo top bar. Open it and ownERP-Helper detects the screen you are on and shows the matching help page instantly.
- Context mapping by model and action
- Navigable table of contents on the left
Find any topic instantly
Type a term and the full-text search filters the entire help library of every installed module in real time — titles and content alike.
- Searches titles and content
- Spans all installed Equitania modules
Write your own help — with screenshots
Your team can add documentation directly in Odoo using a Markdown editor with instant rendered preview. Drop in screenshots straight from the toolbar and bind a page to a module or screen so it appears exactly where users need it.
- Markdown editor with image upload
- Bind pages to models, actions or a module
Controlled publishing with full history
Pages move through a draft→publish workflow: editors prepare content, a manager publishes it. Every change is versioned and can be restored, and the chatter keeps a complete audit trail.
- Role-based editor / manager rights
- Version history with one-click restore
Portable and AI-ready
Export your documentation as a self-contained ZIP (Markdown + images) and import it on another database. Published pages are searchable by the Equitania chatbot, and the editor offers a pluggable AI-assist hook.
- ZIP import / export
- Searchable by the AI chatbot
