auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Lets contracts generate sales orders instead of invoices on their recurring schedule, with an option to confirm those orders automatically. Users can also see how many sales orders a contract has produced and open them from the contract form.

This module adds a new way for contracts to bill customers: instead of creating invoices, a contract can now create sales orders on its recurring schedule.

On the contract form, when the generation type is set to "Sale", a new "Auto-confirm" option appears. If ticked, the sales orders generated by that contract are confirmed automatically; otherwise they stay as quotations. A "Create Sales" button (visible to technical users) lets you generate the next sales order immediately, even before its scheduled date, and a note is logged on the order saying it was created manually from the contract.

A scheduled job named "Generate Recurring sales from Contracts" runs every day and creates the sales orders due for all contracts set to generate sales. Each order line keeps a link to the contract line it came from, so Odoo can trace which contract produced which order.

The contract form also shows a "Sales Order" counter button that opens the list of orders generated by that contract.

Behind the scenes, the module touches contracts, contract lines, contract templates, sales orders and sales order lines. It reuses the contract's partner, payment terms, fiscal position and company when building the order, and copies quantities, units, discounts, prices and line descriptions from the contract lines.
