I have the ODOO10CE with many PDF attachments. Most are linked to accounting entries and invoices.
Can someone recommend me how to transfer them to ODOO14CE and re-link them to the accounting entries and invoices?
Thanks.
If you have already successfully upgraded your database from 10 to 14 and the only thing still outstanding is your attachments, then you should simply move your filestore as you would move any set of folders.
It seems... unlikely... that you would have successfully upgraded from 10 to 14 without knowing this however so maybe there's more to the question than I'm seeing?
For general knowledge, check out the Odoo 14 Documentation on importing documents:

Is there a way to do this easily? Keep version history of the document on the document? As a .gdoc or .whatever-format or am I resigned in having to download, separately, all the revisions made in the past on said document?
For context: I have a document I've been editing and revising over the years for my own medical history and list of meds, history, etc. etc. and have been using Google Docs to do this, because it was convenient and I didn't have to pay for Microsoft Office and additionally install a good word processor on my PC. Now recently I've purchased Dropbox Personal for cloud storage needs.
I want to do the following: Take the Google Doc and save it as a .gdoc (which isn't an option in the File menu??) and take it over to Dropbox's Vault as an editable hardcopy with its revisions history in tact.
Otherwise, what I have done (before I even comprehended revision history was a thing) is just copy pasted its current version, onto a new .gdoc in Dropbox Vault.
So, is that possible? And if so, how and as easily (lazily) as I possibly can? Also, is this even the right place to ask for this? Apologies if it isn't. I didn't see much else about this specific issue anywhere... (also lazy)
Thanks!
EDIT:
I am by no means a coder in any sense. I'm a full time elderly caretaker and I'm just a guy with a specific, niche?, technical, problem and thought this was the first place to ask without having to go through tech support w/ Google chat etc. And it might also help some other people that like seeing how their documents have changed over the years, history fans etc. At the end of the day it's a programming/coding issue, that could be resolved someway some how... Right?
If I can add pictures here for context, LMK.
Thanks :)
The .gdoc file format is only accessible via Google Docs which is on web. Downloading the file to your local storage means you would have to access it on your device using your local apps (word editor) such as Microsoft Office,Libre Office, etc.(other word editor apps on desktop application level) which is why the .gdoc format is not available when you download. This is also why you won't be able to have it openable from your dropbox.
The version/revision history on Google Docs is intact only to that specific file with that unique ID. So when you download the file, the version history won't be available to the physically downloaded file which is stored on web or even when you make a copy of it, the version history does not get copied, therefore that won't be an option too.
It looks like you'll have to stick to manually copying or making a backup of the current version of the file before editing, since the version history is only kept for a period of 30 days or the last 100 versions, unless manually set to "Keep forever" to keep a version forever.

I am building an Access 2010 db which will store and query information relating to time spend by users in our team. Part of the reporting needs to include whether timesheets have been submitted on time.
The process is currently being managed in Excel but is becoming cumbersome due to the growing size of the consolidated data. In the current process, the flag on whether someone is late with their timesheet is applied manually.
Instead of manually adding a Yes / No value to the excel data, I wondered whether it was possible to set up separate TransferSpreadsheet processes in Access to upload the excel data (and attach them to separate command buttons) such that, depending on which one is executed, the import process adds a Yes or a No value to the last column in the data as it's being uploaded.
That way we can import the excel data for those who submitted their timesheets on time (and 'stamp' them Yes for being on time) and then any subsequently late submitted timesheet data can be imported later (and 'stamped' with a No).
I have spent several hours looking at online forums and instruction pages but cannot find anything close to what I am trying to achieve, hence the reason for posting this here.
This is just one of the options I am considering but my VBA skills are insufficient to establish whether such a process could be handled in VBA. All help appreciated. Thanks.
Solved this one myself with a bit of perseverance. Ended up running a few DoCmd.RunSQL commands to Alter / Delete / Insert the tables I had and used a 'join' table to load the data from excel and then ran a command to append the data from the 'join' table to the main table. I just invoke slightly different commands to update the table field based on whether the data has been submitted late or on time.
I'm just starting my adventure with programming and VBA and now I have small problem. Sometimes people change extension of files (they have some reasons) but I need to find extension before changing.
For example: first it was doc , then docm, then odt (or pdf, etc.) and I need to find that it was doc at the beginning. I don't know if it's possible.
I thought that if I open file in notepad there is some kind of code in it, and probably part of code may be "origin" extension, but which part is it? Or is there some other way I could use in VBA?
Please Look into #Tim Williams comments, it is not prudent to try to find origin's extension as many a times files are saved in different file formats. However various approaches for keeping track of file version and history of the files are mentioned here-under.
There are some tools(example-XLTools) and processes that will allow you to see the revisions of an Excel sheet. As far as a revision history within the Excel sheet, you will not have any unless you have set this up yourself. There is not a built in change history for Excel. Otherwise File History regularly backs up versions of your files in the Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, and Desktop folders and the OneDrive files available offline on your PC. Over time, you'll have a complete history of your files. If the originals are lost, damaged, or deleted, you can restore them. You can also browse and restore different versions of your files. For example, if you want to restore an older version of a file (even if it wasn't deleted or lost), you can browse through a timeline, select the version you want, and restore it.
If your files are uploaded to SharePoint and If a list or library on your site tracks versions, you can view version history for items or files, providing you have Read permission to the list or library. The version history contains information about when the item or file was changed, who changed it, and information about what was changed. In libraries, the version history might also contain comments written by the people who made changes.
You can view version history in either of two ways:
In the list or library on your site
In the Microsoft Office Backstage view of a Microsoft Office 2010 document. You can also track changes if you upload to DropBox Or say Box, there also revision history and version changes can be tracked.
I have an Microsoft Access 2010 database application with split front end and backend which has started to behave oddly, and I've exhausted all the options I know for investigating and resolving the problem.
32-bit Access 2010 running on Windows 8.1... I have both Access 2010 and Access 2013 installed, but the problem also manifests itself on a Windows 8.1 system with a completely fresh install of Access 2010 and no Office 2013 present. The issue also exists if the application is run using Access 2010 Runtime. The front-end is running on my hard disk, not in a Dropbox or similar environment. The back-end is in Dropbox.
There are a couple of third-party elements in the application -- references are as shown -- example 1 on the system with both Access 2010 and 2013 present, example 2 on the system with just Access 2010 present.
There hasn't been a software update to the Treeview control since December 2013. I've checked that the versions of the third-party controls I'm using are compatible with Windows 8.1.
Symptoms:
The application (an unreleased development version) initially works perfectly, but if closed and reopened, one specific operation (right-click on a third party treeview ActiveX control on the main form) misbehaves -- the right-click event is triggered multiple times instead of just once (the number of times is unpredictable). There are two treeviews on the main form with identical settings (populated dynamically with different data sets). One treeview behaves, one doesn't. Even if I remove all code from the right-click event, it fires twice.
This main form configuration and code hasn't been changed in over one year, not has the treeview config or code. I don't use Compact on Close. The application isn't logging any errors.
What I've tried:
If I restore a previous version of the application, it works... and when reopened, doesn't work. (I've tried this with several previous versions of the database.)
I've tried importing a copy of the main form from an old working version of the database -- same problem.
I've tried deleting the malfunctioning treeview and creating a new one (copying the one that is working) -- same problem.
I've tried creating a new blank database and importing all the objects from the old one. Once I've restored the references manually, the same problem.
I've reviewed all the possibilities mentioned in Can't eliminate Access corruption -- one commonality I have with this question is that I've (last three months) started using the VBA Implements keyword, but I hadn't made any changes to this code immediately before the problem showed up, and neither the main form nor the treeview control utilise it.
I've emailed the support team for the treeview control, but they haven't anything to suggest that I haven't already tried.
I've repaired the installation of both Access 2010 and Office 365 in case the references were somehow messed up.
I've un-installed Office 365 and Access 2010, rebooted the machine and reinstalled Access 2010. The references are all Office 14 references and the problem still exists (in a compiled accde). As soon as I reinstall Office 365, the references become mixed 14 and 15. (This is also true for the working version which is two years old).
What I haven't tried yet:
Rolling back a two months' worth of Windows updates to see if it's a Windows issue (this system has only been in use since early September, so this wouldn't be hugely onerous to try).
Rolling back to a version of the app from December 2012 (the last production release) which doesn't seem to have suffered the corruption and manually reapply almost two years worth of development changes. This would be a mega undertaking....
Are there any other options for investigation or resolution that I can try?
Edited to add: What finally worked
I created a new empty database, imported everything from the old database except the main form, which I recreated from scratch to look identical and have the same code as the old one... And the problem has gone away. It not very satisfactory as a resolution, but it seems to confirm that there was a corruption somewhere.
One of the best ways to remove corruption in an Access database is to save the forms and reports to text using the undocumented SaveAsText function, delete the form and report objects, close the database, use the undocumented /decompile switch to decompile the database, compact/repair the database, then re-import all the objects using the undocumented LoadFromText function.
Usually the Access databases corruptions affect the VBA modules, less likely the table data. So hopefully you should be able to copy the data to a blank database, get the VBA code from a older backup (since the last source code update) and merging the two together. It should work!
It won't stay fixed unless you disable updates. And you can't disable updates because you will be compromising security.
I am in the process of migrating from a recruitment ATS called Bullhorn, who also acted as our mail server. We have been provided with a backup of our data which includes all our emails stored in a table - so far so good. However, each of those emails' bodies is stored in the database table as an Image type as a zipped binary (Not so helpful).
I'm pretty stumped with how to get this stuff out. There is a forum in which there is a thread dedicated to this but predictably Bullhorn are not so enthusiastic spending time supporting customers who are migrating away. Here is the thread: http://supportforums.bullhorn.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=1672
As I explain in that thread, I have used a program called Chilkat with which I can successfully read a table row, decompress the Email Body Column and display the raw HTML in the console window. But now, I don't really know where to go. I've read in to Datasets and Table Adapters but I'm not too sure how I can get the Chilkat software to work on data within that dataset.
So, I wonder if anyone can help out with this and provide some guidance?
Or.... I've been reading about using SQL to store binaries and it seems it has it's own compression - so could I use a CLR as a stored procedure to be able to give better access to this data.
Ultimately, I'd like to be able to output this in to either a CSV file or use GeniusConnect to recreate an Outlook file - ultimately ending up in Gmail.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
