This module adds a checkbox 'Copy notes to invoice' in the create invoice wizard from the sale order, to propagate sale order line of 'Note' type to the created invoice.
IMPORTANT
This module is useless since https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/ff4f1eafd222555b6c13503a9d7253403899bcee and Odoo now always creates invoice lines for notes.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0Adds a 'Copy notes to invoice' checkbox to the Create Invoice wizard in Sales, so note lines from a sale order can be carried over to the generated customer invoice.
When you create an invoice from a sale order, Odoo opens a wizard. This module adds a checkbox called 'Copy notes to invoice' to that wizard, ticked by default. The checkbox is hidden when the invoice is an advance payment based on a fixed amount or a percentage.
If the checkbox stays ticked, the notes that appear between the product lines of the sale order are copied onto the new invoice as note lines, keeping their original position and text. If you untick it, the invoice is created without those notes.
- The option appears in the Create Invoice wizard reached from a sale order.
- The copied notes are stored on the invoice as note lines, with the sale order number recorded as their origin.
- The behaviour is controlled by the
sale.advance.payment.invwizard and thesale.ordermodel.
Note: according to the module's own documentation, this feature is no longer needed in recent Odoo versions because notes are now always copied to invoices. The code shown here only covers the manual checkbox behaviour.
