We are proud to announce the 7.2 release of [Tryton](https://www.tryton.org/).  
This release provides many bug fixes, performance improvements and some fine tuning. It also adds 5 new modules.  
You can give it a [try on the demo server](https://www.tryton.org/demo), [use the docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/tryton/tryton/) or [download it here](https://www.tryton.org/download).  
As usual [upgrading from previous series](https://docs.tryton.org/7.2/server/topics/setup_database.html#update-a-database) is fully supported but some manual steps are needed to [update from 7.0 to 7.2](https://discuss.tryton.org/t/migration-from-7-0-to-7-2/7163).

Here is a list of the most noticeable changes:

## Changes for the User

### Clients

You can now [request to reset your password](https://bugs.tryton.org/10629) from the login dialog. Doing this sends a temporary password to your email address.

The [PYSON widgets](https://bugs.tryton.org/12986) display the value using operators which are more user-friendly.

#### Web Client

The [binary and image widgets now support drag and drop](https://bugs.tryton.org/12924) to set their value.

#### Desktop Client

On list and tree views, there is now a [contextual menu that allows you to copy the contents of a cell or a column](https://bugs.tryton.org/12824).

### Accounting

It is now possible to [modify the dates of a period](https://bugs.tryton.org/12667) even if it contains posted moves as long as the existing moves stay inside the new period dates. This useful to correct mistakes or even extend a period.

A [warning is now raised when you validate an invoice](https://bugs.tryton.org/3818) for which some lines do not have the expected default taxes. This helps to detect mistakes.

When an invoice in another currency is paid, the [currency exchange amount is now booked](https://bugs.tryton.org/1302) automatically into a configured account.

You can now enter [the amount of the transaction in a second currency on statements](https://bugs.tryton.org/12673). This makes it easier to do the reconciliation between the statement and invoices based on a second currency.

### Company

Employees are now [automatically deactivated](https://bugs.tryton.org/12077) once their end date has passed.

It is now possible to [use some placeholders in the header and footer](https://bugs.tryton.org/12699) of company reports like the company name, phone, website etc.

### Marketing

Some reports are now available on marketing scenario and activities. They calculate and display the open, click and [click-through rates](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Click-through_rate).

[UTM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTM_parameters) parameters can be added to marketing emails so you can follow their results.

### Product

You can now store the Manufacturer Part Number and brand as a product identifier.

Tryton now supports to adding [images to product categories](https://bugs.tryton.org/13062).

You can now use [non-square images on products](https://bugs.tryton.org/12744). The module resizes the images to fit the requested size but keeps the aspect ratio.

### Production

The production number is now [only set when the order progresses to waiting](https://bugs.tryton.org/12904). This prevents the supply module from consuming number for production request that are subsequently deleted.

### Purchase

It is now possible to [remove ignored invoices and stock moves](https://bugs.tryton.org/13066) from purchases. This is useful when you have ignored the invoice or shipping exception by mistake and need to correct it.

### Sale

It is now possible to [remove the ignored invoices and stock moves](https://bugs.tryton.org/13066) from sales. This is useful when you have ignored the invoice or shipping exception by mistake and need to correct it.

The [product on sale opportunity lines](https://bugs.tryton.org/2172) can be omitted, a description and a note can be used instead.

### Stock

The drop shipment (like the other shipments) can now be split. This is useful to match exactly how the supplier shipped the products.

The [shipment numbers](https://bugs.tryton.org/12905) are now only set when it progresses to a waiting state. This prevents consuming sequences numbers for requests that are going to be deleted.

The lot trace now optionally displays the [source and destination locations](https://bugs.tryton.org/12659). This can be useful when investigating the traceability of a lot.

### Web Shop

It is now possible to limit a web shop by country.

The [web shop supports price lists](https://bugs.tryton.org/13076) to calculate the sale price and the non sale price.

## New Modules

### Stock Product Location Place

The [_Stock Product Location Place Module_](https://docs.tryton.org/7.2/modules-stock-product-location-place/index.html) allows defining the place where each product is stored within each location.

### Account SYSCOHADA

The [_Account SYSCOHADA Module_](https://docs.tryton.org/7.2/modules-account-syscohada/index.html) provides templates for the [chart of account for OHADA countries](https://plan-comptable-ohada.com/).

### Account Export

The [_Account Export Module_](https://docs.tryton.org/7.2/modules-account-export/index.html) provides the basis to allow accounting moves to be exported to external accounting software.

### Account Export WinBooks

The [_Account Export WinBooks Module_](https://docs.tryton.org/7.2/modules-account-export-winbooks/index.html) adds support to export accounting data to [WinBooks](https://www.exact.com/befr/software/exact-winbooks).

### Web Shop Product Data Feed

The [_Web Shop Product Data Feed Module_](https://docs.tryton.org/7.2/modules-web-shop-product-data-feed/index.html) exposes web shop products as a data feed for [Google Merchant](https://merchants.google.com/) and [Meta for business](https://www.facebook.com/business/).

## Changes for the System Administrator

### Server

It is now possible to [update the database without updating the indexes](https://bugs.tryton.org/12596) or to create the indexes concurrently. These are useful options when updating busy system.

It is possible to [define a timeout for some RPC calls](https://bugs.tryton.org/11293). This helps preventing users from overloading the system with expensive requests.

## Changes for the Developer

### Server

We added [`send_message` methods](https://bugs.tryton.org/13048) to simplify sending emails using python’s Message.

A new kind of [field `fmany2one`](https://bugs.tryton.org/13051) is now available, which is a type of `many2one` field but stores a different field to the `id`. It is used mainly in the infrastructure to create foreign keys based on a model or field name.

The [read-only relational fields are no longer copied](https://bugs.tryton.org/12849) by default. This was source of various bugs as developers often forgot to disable these from the copy.

### Clients

The clients [read the _xxx2many_ fields using dotted notation](https://bugs.tryton.org/12856). This avoids making multiple requests when displaying a form with these fields.

The XML ID of a record is now displayed in the log window.

### Script

It is possible to [configure the scripting client to skip any warning](https://bugs.tryton.org/12954).

### Product

It is now possible to generate barcodes for a product using a different type than the one on the identifier.

### Stock

The `done` buttons have been renamed to `do`.

Location name fields have been added to stock moves. This is useful to customize the information displayed in reports about the source and destination locations.

I think it was left out from the **Changes for the Developer** section a important change in the XML files when creating a record of model **ir.model.button** whose field `model` that used to take an integer id of the model, now it takes a string of the model name.

As a example to illustrate this change is that if you had a button definition such as the following:

```auto
<record model="ir.model.button" id="move_update_analytic_button">
  <field name="name">update_analytic</field>
  <field name="model" search="[('model', '=', 'account.move')]"/>
</record>

```

Now before running it in version 7.2 you must update that into the following:

```auto
<record model="ir.model.button" id="move_update_analytic_button">
  <field name="name">update_analytic</field>
  <field name="model">account.move</field>
</record>

```
