In odoo, by default some modules are marked as auto installable by the auto_install key present in the manifest.

  • This feature is very useful for "glue" modules that allow two modules to work together. (A typical example is sale_stock which allows sale and stock modules to work together).
  • However, Odoo SA also marks some modules as auto installable, even though this is not technically required. This can happen for modules the company wants to promote like iap, modules with a big wow effect like partner_autocomplete, or some modules they consider useful by default like account_edi. See the discussion: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/issues/71190

This module allows to change by configuration, the list of auto installable modules, adding or removing some modules to auto install.
