AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0

In the Point of Sale, cashiers can find and add a product to the order by scanning any of its extra barcodes (EAN codes), not just the main one.

This module extends the Point of Sale so that a product can be found by any of its additional barcodes, not only its main barcode. It relies on the extra EAN codes defined on the product by the product_multi_ean module.

  • When the Point of Sale loads its product data, each product's list of extra EAN codes is sent to the till.
  • The till then registers every extra code in its barcode lookup, so scanning any of them adds the correct product to the current order.
  • A new read-only field, multi_ean_json, is added on product.product; it is computed automatically from the product's extra EAN codes and is not meant to be edited by hand.

There are no new menus, buttons, reports or business rules such as stock checks or emails. The change is limited to the Point of Sale barcode search behaviour and the product data sent to the till. The module installs automatically when both product_multi_ean and point_of_sale are present.
