This module implements base functionality for using different map providers in POS. It allows to select partner location directly on a map and stores selected location in the res.partner model. It also tries to evaluate partner's address from coordinates and provides a helper function that generates location QR code.
NB: This is a core module which is meant to be used in further customisations.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0Adds map-based location tools to the Point of Sale customer form, letting cashiers view and edit a customer's latitude and longitude and open a map popup to pick a location. It is an abstract base module meant to be extended by real map providers.
This module prepares the Point of Sale for map-based customer locations, but it does not include a working map by itself. It is a base that other modules extend.
In the Point of Sale customer details screen, the module adds Latitude and Longitude fields so the cashier can see and type a customer's coordinates. It also adds a map-marker button next to the customer name. When the map button is clicked, a popup titled "Customer Location" opens with a map area, an address input, a Close button and a Confirm button. Confirming sends the chosen coordinates and address back to the customer form.
Behind the scenes, the module extends res.partner with a computed QR code URL field (empty in this base version) and makes sure latitude and longitude entered from the Point of Sale interface are stored as numbers. It also extends pos.config with a computed field that reads the geolocation provider configured in Odoo, and extends pos.session so that customer address, latitude and longitude are loaded into the Point of Sale.
Because the map handling functions are intentionally empty, the map button only works once a provider module is installed on top of this one.
