Restrict Invoice Printing & KSA Compliance
for Odoo
Gain complete control over your invoice and bill printing processâeliminate the risk of premature, unauthorized, or non-compliant document issuance by enforcing a strict âno print before validationâ policy directly in Odoo. Whether issuing customer invoices, vendor bills, or credit notes, this module blocks printing whenever a record is still in Draft, ensuring that only approved and posted transactions are released. For Saudi Arabia, additional ZATCA safeguards prevent printing customer invoices unless they have been successfully sent, while role-based checks ensure that every invoice has a responsible user assigned. Finance teams and auditors can trust that every printed document reflects an accurate, approved, and compliant record, reducing the risk of errors, disputes, or regulatory breaches. Brand consistency is enhanced with a configurable company invoice header logo, and procurement-driven organizations can optionally display quantities in the productâs Purchase Unit of Measure for better alignment with supplier terms. Dynamic titlesâProforma Invoice, Tax Invoice, Simplified Tax Invoice, Credit Note, or Canceledâare applied automatically, keeping documents clear and professional without manual intervention. The restriction is seamlessly enforced during the print actionâno extra steps requiredâso your accounting team can work confidently within a secure and compliant framework. Every valid print request remains fully traceable through Odooâs chatter and reporting, providing an audit-ready trail of all invoice activity. Strengthen financial governance, protect your reputation, and streamline invoice handlingâso your finance team can focus on strategic growth instead of policing print permissions.

Restrict Invoice Printing & KSA Compliance
Gain complete control and transparency over your invoice and bill printing processâfinance teams issue documents with confidence knowing that no invoice, bill, or credit note can be printed while still in Draft. From initial creation through validation, posting, and regulatory checks, every stage is automatically enforced to ensure only approved and compliant transactions are released. Whether handling customer invoices, vendor bills, or credit notes, the module applies a consistent restriction, preventing unapproved or incomplete records from leaving the system. Clear, role-based controls and state-driven rules keep accounting teams aligned: drafts, posted invoices, and validated transactions are clearly distinguished at every step. For companies in Saudi Arabia, ZATCA compliance is built-inâprinting is blocked until the invoice has been properly sent. User-friendly error messages instantly notify staff when printing is restricted, while all approved print actions remain logged for a complete audit trail. Whether youâre managing daily invoicing, month-end closings, or compliance audits, this module centralizes invoice document control, eliminates manual checks, and empowers leadership with confidence that every printed invoice reflects an accurate, approved, and compliant financial recordâso your team can focus on driving growth instead of policing print permissions.

Enable Access Print Purchase Unit

Grant selected users the right to control whether invoice lines display quantities in the productâs Purchase Unit of Measure. By enabling this access right, authorized staff can toggle the âPrint Purchase Unitâ option on Sales Orders, ensuring that procurement-driven companies display invoices aligned with supplier terms. This step enforces clear role-based control, preventing unauthorized changes while empowering procurement and finance teams to maintain accuracy and consistency in printed invoices.
Access Customer Invoices

Navigate to Invoicing â Customers â Invoices to create, review, and manage all customer invoice records in Odoo. This step centralizes your receivables process, giving finance teams a clear view of issued, draft, posted, or cancelled invoices in one place. From here, you can initiate new invoices, track due dates, validate posted transactions, and ensure every document follows your organizationâs approval and compliance rules before printing.
Draft a Customer Invoice

Enter customer details, invoice date, due date, and add product lines to build a complete invoice record. At this stage, the invoice remains in Draft, meaning it can be freely edited or cancelled before validation. Draft invoices provide finance teams with the flexibility to review line items, prices, and taxes, ensuring accuracy before the document is officially posted. This step safeguards against errors and keeps the approval process under full control.
Attempt to Print a Draft Invoice

From the invoice form, a user selects Print â Invoices while the document is still in Draft status. At this point, the module intercepts the action and prevents printing, ensuring that no unapproved or incomplete invoices are ever issued. This safeguard eliminates the risk of accidental distribution of draft documents, keeps your financial records compliant, and enforces strict âprint only after approvalâ controls.
Print Action Blocked for Draft Invoices

When attempting to print an invoice or bill that is still in Draft status, the system immediately interrupts the action with an âInvalid Operationâ warning. This safeguard ensures that no unapproved, incomplete, or non-compliant documents leave the system. By enforcing this restriction at the print stage, the module eliminates the risk of accidental distribution of draft invoices, strengthens internal controls, and helps finance teams maintain compliance and accuracy at every step.
Post and Validate the Invoice

Once all details are reviewed, the invoice is confirmed and posted, moving it out of Draft status and into the companyâs official financial records. At this stage, printing is permitted and the invoice becomes a legally valid document. For companies in Saudi Arabia, the system also prepares the invoice for ZATCA submission, ensuring full compliance with local e-invoicing regulations. This step finalizes the approval process, giving finance teams the confidence that every printed invoice reflects an accurate, validated, and compliant financial record.
Print a Posted Invoice

With the invoice now in Posted status, the Print option becomes available. At this stage, the document is a legally valid financial record that can be safely shared with customers or auditors. The module ensures that only compliant, approved invoices reach this step, eliminating the risk of draft or incomplete documents being issued. Branded headers, dynamic titles (Proforma, Tax Invoice, Simplified Tax Invoice, Credit Note, or Canceled), and accurate totals are automatically applied, giving your team confidence that every printed invoice reflects a professional and compliant record.
ZATCA Compliance Block on Printing

When an invoice is posted but has not yet been submitted to ZATCA (Saudi Arabiaâs e-invoicing authority), the system automatically blocks the print action and displays an âInvalid Operationâ warning. This safeguard ensures that only invoices officially registered with ZATCA can be issued to customers, protecting the business from regulatory violations and audit risks. By enforcing this compliance step, the module guarantees that every printed invoice is not only accurate and approved but also fully aligned with Saudi e-invoicing laws.
