Purchase Vendor Bill Breakdown
This module offers a solution for the following scenario:
- We purchase a Toolbox product from a supplier
- Supplier delivers us the Toolbox but issues an invoice with 1x Box, 2x Wrench, 5x Screwdriver and 1x Hammer products in line
This module allows to replace a product in PO Line with a predefined set of components in the vendor bill line and also allows to calculate vendors product price by product components price.
Please note: this module is not compatible with stock. To use these features with stock components, you need to install module purchase_stock_vendor_bill_breakdown .
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Lets you replace a purchased product with a predefined set of component products on the vendor bill, and compute the vendor price from those components. Useful when a supplier invoices a kit as separate items.
When a vendor is flagged to use product components, purchase orders can be switched to 'Use Product Components'. On each order line a list button opens a 'Product Components' popup where you define the components that make up the purchased product, with quantity per unit, unit of measure and unit price.
- Components are copied automatically from the vendor's product information when the order line is created or its product changes.
- The vendor price of the product can be computed as the sum of its component prices; the price field becomes read-only when both the vendor and the product use components.
- Component unit prices are taken from the component's vendor price list, falling back to its cost.
- Received quantities update the component quantities, and the 'Billed' and 'To Invoice Quantity' columns follow the invoices.
- When the vendor bill is created, the original order line is skipped and replaced by one bill line per component, keeping taxes and analytic information.
- Checks prevent components from containing the parent product or being duplicated, and you cannot activate components on an order that already has an invoice.
It touches purchase.order, purchase.order.line, product.supplierinfo, account.move and account.move.line. A new model purchase.order.line.component stores the component lines.
