Draft
Consolidate APEX permission groups into a standard Odoo selection dropdown#117
Conversation
- Uncomment implied_ids on group_aps_teacher so Teacher implies Student, completing the linear chain Manager > Teacher > Student. With all three groups sharing the same module_category_aps category, Odoo now renders them as a single dropdown selector on the user form instead of individual checkboxes. - Add sequence fields (10 / 20 / 30) so the dropdown order is Student → Teacher → Manager. - Update README security section to document the new dropdown behaviour and permission inheritance chain.

APEX groups (Student, Teacher, Manager) were displayed as independent checkboxes because the
implied_idschain was incomplete — Teacher did not imply Student. Without a linear hierarchy, Odoo cannot collapse same-category groups into a single selection field.Changes

All three groups already shared
module_category_aps. With the completeimplied_idschain in place, Odoo renders them as a single dropdown — assigning Manager grants Teacher + Student permissions transitively.
