This module adds a typology for the sales orders. In each different type, you can define, invoicing and refunding journal, a warehouse, a stock route, a sequence, the shipping policy, the invoicing policy, a payment term, a pricelist and an incoterm.
You can see sale types as lines of business.
You are able to select a sales order type by partner so that when you add a partner to a sales order it will get the related info to it.
When no partner or context default applies, the first available sale order type by sequence is used as the default.
Additionally, it adds a warning message to notify users when there is a mismatch between the partner's default pricelist and the effective pricelist set by the sales order type. This ensures clarity when creating sales orders, as the effective pricelist (determined by the sales order type) will take precedence over the partner's default pricelist. The warning is only visible for companies without a parent and when there is a mismatch between the two pricelists.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 20.0Create sale order types (lines of business) that automatically fill in the warehouse, journal, payment terms, pricelist, shipping policy, salesperson and more on quotations, invoices and deliveries. Assign a default type per customer and see the type on sales and invoice reports.
This module lets you define sale order types, each acting as a line of business with its own defaults. You manage them under Sales > Configuration > Sales Order Types, where each type can carry a warehouse, stock routes, an entry sequence, a billing journal, shipping policy, payment term, pricelist, incoterm, salesperson, sales team, quotation validity in days and analytic distribution.
On a quotation you pick a type; Odoo then automatically fills the warehouse, shipping policy, payment term, pricelist, salesperson, sales team, incoterm and quotation validity date, and applies the type's stock routes to the order lines. If the type has its own entry sequence, the quotation number is taken from it, and changing the type on a draft quotation can renumber it.
You can set a default sale order type on a customer. When that customer is chosen, the type is applied automatically; otherwise the first type by sequence is used. A warning appears on the customer form when the customer's pricelist differs from the one the sale order type will impose.
Invoices inherit the type from the order, use the type's billing journal and payment term, and the type can be filtered and grouped in invoices and sales reports. A company setting makes the type mandatory on sale orders.
