Sale Merge Draft Invoice

Odoo can merge sales orders into a single invoice, grouped by partner and currency, when the sales orders are selected and invoiced together. This module extends the grouping to also consider any pre-existing draft invoices and merge them.

This feature is activated from Sales / Settings and assigned to the company settings.

Users assigned to the group 'Change sale to invoice merge proposal' have the possibility to activate or deactivate this option at the moment of invoicing.

If you also need to group on fields other than partner and currency, the OCA module sale_invoice_group_method allows you to specify alternative grouping methods and is fully compatible with this module.

Configuration

Go to 'Sales / Configuration / Settings'
In 'Quotations & Sales' go to 'Invoices' and activate the option 'Merge new invoices with existing draft ones'.
Go to 'Settings / Users / Groups' and assign to the group 'Change sale to invoice merge proposal' all the users that can have the possibility to activate/deactivate the option of merging the new invoice with existing draft ones.

Usage

Create an Invoice from a single Sale Order

Go to 'Sales / Sales / Sales Orders'.
Select or click in a sale order.
Go to 'Action' and click 'Invoice Order' or press the button 'Invoice Order' if you are inside a sale order. The result, in case there are draft invoices that correspond to this one, is an existing draft invoice with the new lines added. In the wizard, if the user belongs to the group 'Change sale to invoice merge proposal', the option to deactivate the 'Merge with draft invoices' is given. In this case, the result is a new draft invoice is created following the usual behaviour.

Create Invoices from a group of Sales Orders

Go to 'Sales / Sales / Sales Orders'.
Select all the sales orders with status 'To invoice'.
Go to 'Action' and click 'Invoice Order'. As a result, new draft invoices will be merged with existing ones when corresponding. In the wizard, if the user belongs to the group 'Change sale to invoice merge proposal', the option to deactivate the 'Merge with draft invoices' is given. In this case, the result is a new draft invoice for every sale order following the usual behaviour.
