Advance Payment

Collect Advance Payments from Sales & Purchase Orders — instantly.

In many business workflows, payments are only collected after delivery or invoice creation.

This often leads to cash flow gaps, delayed collections and financial uncertainty before order fulfillment.

By default, Odoo does not support collecting advance payments directly from confirmed Sales Orders or Purchase Orders — before any invoice or delivery is created.

Businesses and finance teams often face questions like:

• Can we collect partial payment before delivery?
• How to record advance payments against a confirmed order?
• How to track all advance payments in one place?
• How to prevent duplicate payments once the invoice is fully settled?

The Advance Payment module solves these challenges by enabling user-authorized advance collections directly from confirmed Sales Orders and Purchase Orders.

It helps businesses secure payments early, track every advance in one place and automatically hide the payment option once the invoice is fully paid.

No more payment delays. No more manual tracking confusion.
