POS Receipt Archive
Automatically archive a PDF receipt for every Point of Sale transaction, containing exactly the same information as issued to the customer.
Key Features
Automatic PDF Generation
A PDF is generated silently in the background immediately after each payment confirmation — no extra steps required from the cashier.
Complete Information Capture
The receipt is captured from the live POS screen, including all addon content such as TSE/fiscal data, custom fields, and QR codes. All information present on the customer's receipt is preserved in the archived PDF.
Immutable Storage
Each PDF is stored once and protected from deletion, ensuring the archived copy always matches what was originally issued.
Single-Click Download
Open any POS order in the backend and download the archived receipt PDF directly from the form view with a single button click.
Bulk Export as ZIP
Select multiple orders in the list view and use the Download Receipts action to download all archived PDFs bundled in a single ZIP file.
GoBD / KassenSichV Ready
The PDF is generated once, at the moment of payment, and never regenerated. This supports compliance with German GoBD and KassenSichV requirements for unalterable receipt retention.
How It Works
- Capture — After payment is confirmed, the POS frontend captures the fully rendered receipt HTML, including all styles and async-loaded content such as TSE signatures.
- Convert — The captured HTML is sent to the server and converted to a PDF using Odoo's built-in wkhtmltopdf integration.
-
Store — The PDF is stored as an
ir.attachmentlinked to thepos.orderrecord and flagged as immutable. - Download — The receipt can be downloaded at any time from the POS order form or exported in bulk from the list view.

Technical Notes
- Compatible with Odoo 18 Community and Enterprise.
- Requires wkhtmltopdf to be installed on the server (standard Odoo dependency).
- Works alongside TSE/fiscal addons — the PDF is captured after all async receipt content has loaded.
- No configuration required after installation.
