WHY METRIX ADVANCED PURCHASE

Purchase, the way power users want it.

Odoo's stock Purchase module is solid — but it's built for the average buyer. If your team enters dozens of POs a day, runs vendor analytics in spreadsheets, or chases the same product history across screens, this module pays back its install time in the first hour.

DETAILED FEATURE COVERAGE

Everything that ships in this module.

⌨

Keyboard Entry

Move through PO lines the way you'd move through a billing terminal — with Enter, not Tab.

✓Enter advances to next cell Product → Quantity → Price → next row. No more reaching for Tab.	✓Shift+Enter goes back Symmetric reverse navigation, just like Shift+Tab.
✓Last cell opens a new line Save the row and drop into a fresh one automatically.	✓Autocomplete stays smart Open dropdowns still pick with Enter. IME and composition safe.
✓Loose multi-token search Type "ai f t 2" → "Air Filter Type 02". Matches name, code, barcode.	✓Focused cell ring Subtle green outline so you never lose your place mid-row.

👁

Product Intelligence

Every PO line has a 360° product brief one click away. No navigation, no context loss.

✓Last 5 purchases Date, vendor, quantity, unit price — instantly.	✓All vendor prices Every seller with min-qty and current price.
✓Last 4 months breakdown Month-by-month Sold / Purchased / Returned figures.	✓Stock by location Live on-hand, incoming, outgoing per warehouse.
✓Wide two-column dialog All four sections fit on one screen, no scrolling.	✓Eye icon on every line Right next to Unit Price — always within reach.

⚡

Auto Flow

One button collapses four manual steps into a single confirmed click.

✓Confirms the RFQ Draft or Sent → Purchase Order with one tap.	✓Validates the receipt Full quantity received, transfer marked done.
✓Creates & posts vendor bill Bill drafted from the PO and posted in the same step.	✓Registers payment From the PO's default journal — cash, bank, anything you set.
✓Smart visibility Button hides once everything is billed and received.	✓Confirmation prompt A safety dialog before the chain runs — no surprises.

📊

Analytics Dashboard

A modern, themed dashboard that replaces three spreadsheets and one Power BI dashboard.

✓7 live KPIs Orders, value, RFQs, vendors, lead time, billed %, received %.	✓Period presets 7D / 30D / 90D / QTD / YTD / 12M — one click.
✓Multi-select filter pills Vendor, Status, Delivery, Buyer — combine freely.	✓Spend trend chart Stacked bars + cumulative budget line.

📦

PO Enhancements

Small additions to the PO form and list that compound into real time savings.

✓Delivery status field Pending / Partial / Received badge on every PO.	✓Total quantity Sum on the header and as a list column with totals.
✓Default payment journal Set on the PO — Auto flow uses it for payment.	✓Group-by & filters extended Group by delivery status, vendor, buyer, month, year.

EXCLUSIVE CONNECTOR FEATURES

Features you won't find in stock Odoo.

Enter-key navigation patch

A surgical patch on Odoo's ListRenderer and product autocomplete. Doesn't fork or replace the list view — it composes with it. Future-proof through Odoo upgrades.

One-shot chained automation

The Auto button is wrapped in a single server transaction. If any step fails (e.g. insufficient stock for a return), the whole chain rolls back — nothing half-done.

Themed Owl client action

The analytics dashboard is a native Odoo Owl component — not an embedded iframe. Renders fast, respects user permissions, and uses Odoo's RPC services natively.

SEE IT IN ACTION

A quick tour through the module.

01 · DASHBOARD

All your purchase KPIs, above the fold

Period presets, multi-select filters, KPI cards, spend trend, vendor share, top products and recent orders — on one page with one filter set. Light or dark theme.

02 · PRODUCT BRIEF

Click the eye, get the full story

Last 5 purchases, every vendor's price, last 4 months' Sold/Purchased/Returned, and live stock by location. All in one two-column dialog.

An eye icon on every line — instant access to the product brief.

03 · QUICK ENTRY

Type. Enter. Type. Enter. Done.

Enter advances cell-to-cell like a billing terminal. The current cell shows a subtle green ring. Autocomplete still picks with Enter when open.

04 · AUTO BUTTON & PAYMENT JOURNAL

One button. Four manual steps.

Confirm RFQ → validate receipt → post bill → register payment from the PO's default journal — all in one transaction. The button hides itself once the order is fully done.

05 · SMART PRODUCT SEARCH

Type half a name. Find the right product.

Type "cof mu 3" and Odoo finds "Coffee Mug Travel 300 ml". Tokens match loosely across product name, internal reference, and barcode — in any order.

06 · DARK MODE

Polished light. Corporate dark.

The dashboard ships a polished light theme by default and a deep, contrast-tuned dark mode. Toggle in one click — your choice is remembered per user.

TECHNICAL RELIABILITY

Built the Odoo way.

✓ No core fork

Pure patch + inherit. Survives Odoo upgrades cleanly.

✓ Owl v2 components

Dashboard uses native Odoo 18 Owl — no jQuery, no iframe.

✓ ACL respected

Honors Odoo record rules and group permissions everywhere.

✓ Multi-company safe

Company-aware filters on every read group and search.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions, straight answers.

Which Odoo versions are supported?

Built for Odoo 18 (Enterprise & Community). Compatible with both editions out of the box. Migration to v17 / v19 available on request.

Does the Auto button replace the standard workflow?

No. The standard Confirm / Receive / Bill buttons all still work. The Auto button is an additional shortcut for teams that always run those four steps in sequence. You can disable it per user group if needed.

Will it conflict with my existing customizations?

The module uses Odoo's standard `patch()` and `_inherit` mechanisms — it composes with other modules rather than replacing core code. Conflicts are unlikely; we test with major Purchase add-ons.

Do I need the Inventory module?

Yes — the Stock by Location section and the receipt step of the Auto flow depend on `purchase_stock`. Standard Odoo installs ship it together with Purchase.

Is the dashboard real-time?

Yes. The dashboard queries the database live on every filter change — no cache to refresh, no nightly jobs. KPIs reflect the moment you click.

Can I customize the module for my workflow?

Absolutely. The source is included under LGPL-3 — you can extend it freely. Metrix also offers paid customization, integration and training services. Email us with your requirements.

What's included with the purchase?

Full source code, installation help if needed, and email support for bug fixes. Functional training and feature requests are paid services.

Is there a trial or money-back guarantee?

The Odoo Apps Store provides the standard 30-day money-back policy. Drop us an email to request a guided demo on your own data before you buy.
