Invoice From Picking (Shipment/Delivery Order)
by Cerevantix Technologies https://cerevantix.com$ 49.00
Invoice what you ship, not just what you ordered
A bidirectional bridge between pickings and invoices — create invoices or vendor bills from validated deliveries and receipts, generate pickings from invoices, and reverse stock automatically on refunds. Every action is previewed before it commits.
Odoo ties invoicing to the sale or purchase order, not to what actually moved through the warehouse. Every partial shipment, back-order, or drop-ship means leaving the picking, hunting down the source order, and building the invoice by hand — and when a credit note is issued, reversing the stock move is a second manual chore that quietly drifts out of sync with the books.
Create invoices and vendor bills straight from a validated picking, or generate a picking from an invoice — in either direction, from one module. A preview wizard shows every line, quantity and price before anything is created, per-company rules gate what can auto-create, and refunds trigger reverse stock moves automatically, with every automated action recorded in an audit log.
Everything the invoice-picking gap needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Invoice from picking
Create customer invoices from a validated delivery, or vendor bills from a validated receipt — with no sale or purchase order required, so drop-ships and unplanned receipts can be billed too.
Picking from invoice
Run the workflow in reverse: generate the matching stock picking directly from a draft or posted invoice, closing the loop for teams that bill first and ship second.
Preview before you commit
Both directions open an editable preview wizard first — every product, quantity and price line with a checkbox to include or exclude it — so nothing is created until you confirm.
Per-company automation rules
Turn on auto-create, auto-confirm and auto-email independently, then gate them by document type, customer type, amount threshold and warehouse — automation that fires only where you allow it.
Automatic reverse pickings on refund
When a credit note is issued, the matching stock move is reversed automatically per your company setting — no manual return picking to remember.
Always-visible invoice status
A status badge on every picking form and in the transfers list shows To Invoice, Fully Invoiced or Nothing to Invoice at a glance — never a hidden or conditional smart button.
Two-way traceability
Smart buttons link every picking to the invoices it produced and every invoice to its source pickings, so you can jump between the warehouse and accounting records instantly.
Product-type aware
Storable, consumable and service lines are labelled distinctly in both preview wizards, so service items never generate a nonsensical stock move.
Full automation audit log
Every automatic and manual invoice-picking action is logged with a reference number, trigger, triggering rule, user and company — a readable trail accountants can audit.
How it works
Validate the picking
Confirm a delivery or receipt as usual. Its invoice status badge updates automatically to To Invoice.
Open the preview
Click Create Invoice (or Create Picking on an invoice) to open the wizard and review every line before anything is generated.
Confirm and generate
Adjust quantities or consolidation, then confirm. The invoice or picking is created and linked back with a smart button.
Let automation take over
Once your rules are set, matching transactions auto-create, and every action — automatic or manual — lands in the audit log.
See it in action
From a validated picking to a posted invoice — and back — with a preview at every step.
Every picking always shows its invoice status — here a validated delivery is marked To Invoice, with the Create Invoice button ready in the header.
The preview wizard: every product, quantity and price with an Invoice checkbox, plus consolidate, journal, invoice date, post-immediately and email options — nothing is created until you confirm.
The transfers list adds an Invoice Status column, so To Invoice, Fully Invoiced and Nothing to Invoice pickings are visible at a glance without opening each record.
Once billed, the picking shows a Fully Invoiced badge and an Invoices smart button linking straight to the invoice it generated.
The reverse flow: a draft invoice gains a Create Picking button, so warehouse moves can be generated straight from the billing side.
The reverse preview wizard shows target picking type, product type and a stock-changed flag per line, with a Create Move checkbox before any stock is touched.
A posted invoice created from a picking carries a Source Pickings smart button, closing the traceability loop in both directions.
Per-company settings: independent auto-create, auto-confirm, auto-email, consolidate and auto-reverse-on-refund toggles, plus document type, customer type, amount threshold and warehouse rules.
The automation log records every automatic and manual action with its reference, trigger, triggering rule, user and company — a full audit trail for accountants.
Frequently asked
Does this require a sale or purchase order?
No. Invoices and vendor bills can be created directly from the picking, which means drop-ships, unplanned receipts and manual stock movements without a source order can all be billed.
Can invoices be created automatically when a picking is validated?
Yes, and it is entirely opt-in per company. Auto-create, auto-confirm and auto-email are independent toggles, and you can further gate automation by document type, customer type, amount threshold and warehouse.
What happens on a refund or credit note?
When enabled, issuing a credit note automatically creates the matching reverse stock move, and the reverse preview wizard flags any line whose stock has changed since the original invoice.
Does it support partial deliveries and back-orders?
Yes. Invoice status is tracked per picking (To Invoice, Partial, Fully Invoiced), so you can bill exactly what shipped and invoice the remainder once the back-order is fulfilled.
