Field Tooltip Manager

Field Tooltip Manager

Add plain-language help text to any Odoo field — no code needed

Your team keeps asking the same questions three days after go-live: What does Analytic Account mean here? Should I leave Incoterms blank? Is this field required? You wrote a user guide they never opened. The answers need to live inside the product, next to the fields that trigger the confusion.

Field Tooltip Manager lets any admin attach plain-language explanations to any field on any form. A question-mark icon appears next to the field label. Your team hovers and reads the answer right there, in context, at the moment they need it — not buried in a document, not waiting on a reply from you.

You manage every tooltip from one searchable list. Filter by model, deactivate stale entries, and see your entire instance's documentation coverage in minutes. When you add custom fields through Studio, you can document them the same day — no developer ticket, no server restart.

Teams that roll out field tooltips at go-live report fewer repeated support interruptions in the first month. New hires and seasonal staff reach their first productive action faster, without you scheduling extra training sessions.

Install takes under two minutes. Your first tooltip can be live before your next meeting.
