AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Lets you accept meal vouchers (paper or electronic) as a payment method in the Point of Sale, tracking which products are eligible and warning when the voucher amount exceeds the eligible or maximum allowed amount.

This module adds meal voucher handling to the Point of Sale. You can mark a payment method as a meal voucher type (Paper or Electronic) on the payment method form, and mark products or whole product categories as "Can be Paid for by Meal Vouchers".

In the Point of Sale settings you can set a maximum amount per order payable by meal vouchers, show a fork-and-knife icon on eligible order lines, and print meal voucher information on receipts. On the product category form a button applies the eligibility setting to all products in that category.

During a sale, the payment screen shows a Meal Vouchers summary with the total eligible amount, the maximum amount (if set) and the total received, with warning icons when the received amount exceeds the eligible or maximum amount. Paper vouchers can be scanned with a barcode reader; each scanned voucher is added as a payment line and the same code cannot be scanned twice. Receipts can show an asterisk before eligible products plus eligible and non-eligible totals.

It touches pos.config, pos.payment.method, pos.order, pos.session, product.template, product.product, product.category, barcode.rule and res.config.settings.
