/ocabot migration web_quick_start_screen

[Andrii9090-tecnativa]

I created a new screen actions and added it to the Demo start screen.

The action appears correctly in the screen's Actions field, but it is not displayed on the start screen.

After installing another app, the previously missing actions appear on the start screen, I think this is related to the ORM cache.

Could you review please?

[carlos-lopez-tecnativa]

I'm a bit confused about the behavior. Let me explain:

With the admin user, whether the Quick Start Screen field is set or empty, the start action is always shown when I log in:

2026-10-28.10-45-30.mp4

But with the demo user, I set the Quick Start Screen field, but this action is never shown when I log in. Why?

Thanks both for the review!

@Andrii9090-tecnativa You were right, it was the ORM cache. _visible_action_ids() is cached with @ormcache, but nothing cleared it when a screen action was created, archived or deleted. It only got refreshed when some core model cleared the default cache as a side effect, e.g. creating ir.actions.* records while installing a module. That's why the actions showed up after installing another app.

@carlos-lopez-tecnativa, logging in to the start screen depends on the user's Home Action (action_id), not on Quick Start Screen, which only picks the screen to show. In 20.0 core removed action_id from the user form, so it couldn't be set from the UI. Admin only had it through the demo data, which is why it always landed there (even with an empty screen). The demo user had no way to get it. I've added Home Action to the "Menus Customization" group of the user form (debug mode), next to Quick Start Screen, and updated CONFIGURE.md.

LGTM! It works now, newly added actions appear on the start screen immediately.
