auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0

Prevents users from cancelling a sale order when a confirmed (posted) customer invoice is linked to it, showing a clear error message instead.

This module adds a safety rule to the Sales app: once a sale order has a confirmed invoice, you can no longer cancel that order.

A new technical field on the sale order collects all invoices linked to it that are in a confirmed state (posted).
When you try to cancel a sale order, Odoo checks this field. If any confirmed invoice exists, the cancellation is blocked and an error message appears: "You cannot cancel a Sale Order for which a confirmed invoice exists!"
The rule applies to the sale order screen and any other place where cancellation is triggered.
The module only touches the sale.order model and does not add new menus or screens.
It works automatically in the background; no configuration is needed.
