AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Adds a 'Show Vies Warning' option on fiscal positions so that partners and invoices using them are blocked unless the partner's VAT number has passed VIES validation.

This module extends fiscal positions in Accounting with a new checkbox called 'Show Vies Warning'. The checkbox only appears when the fiscal position is set to apply automatically, requires a VAT number, and the company has the VIES VAT check enabled.

When that checkbox is ticked, Odoo enforces two rules: - On a partner (res.partner), you cannot save the record with that fiscal position if the partner's VAT number has not passed VIES validation. - On an invoice (account.move), you cannot confirm (post) the invoice if it uses that fiscal position and the customer's VAT number has not passed VIES validation.

In both cases Odoo shows a validation error explaining that the fiscal position cannot be used because the partner did not pass VIES VAT validation. The checks are skipped entirely when the company does not have the VIES VAT check option enabled.

The new checkbox is added to the standard fiscal position form, right after the 'VAT required' field, so accountants can configure it where they already manage fiscal positions.
