Amount to Text
Total Flexibility for Invoice Wording
Customize how invoice amounts are written. Force Uppercase, choose languages, or enforce strict decimal formats per Journal.
What We're Solving
----------------
Professional Formatting
Native Odoo often writes amounts in lowercase or formats that don't comply with local laws (like "00/100" in LATAM). We let you Force Uppercase and strictly format decimals automatically.
Language Control
Need to issue an invoice in English but for a Spanish customer? Or vice-versa? Force the Amount Language at the Journal level, overriding standard defaults.
Setup & User Manual
Step-by-Step implementation
1. Configuration Guide
Configure your Journals in 3 simple steps:
- Step 1: Navigate to Accounting > Configuration > Journals.
- Step 2: Select the Journal you want to customize (e.g. Customer Invoices, Point of Sale, etc.).
- Step 3: Click on the **Advanced Settings** tab and find the "Amount to Text Configuration" section.
A. Amount Text Format
Determines the structure of the text.
- Odoo Native: Uses standard Odoo behavior (variable by language).
- Custom (00/100): Enforces strict legal format often used in LATAM (e.g. "... WITH 00/100 DOLLARS"). Ideal for electronic invoicing compliance.
B. Amount in Uppercase
Controls letter casing.
- Checked: Forces ALL CAPS (e.g. "ONE HUNDRED"). Recommended for formal invoices.
- Unchecked: Uses standard capitalization (e.g. "One Hundred" or "one hundred").
C. Amount Text Language
Advanced Language Override.
By default, Odoo uses the Customer's language. Use this field
to force a specific language for this Journal.
Example: You invoice international clients in English, but your
local tax authority requires the legal amount in text to be in Spanish. Set
this to 'Spanish'.
2. Operating Manual
Seamless Integration Workflow:
Automatic Calculation
Create an invoice as usual. When you Validate (or Print) the invoice, the system automatically calculates the text based on your Journal settings. You do not need to manually edit anything.
PDF Reports
Since this module overrides the standard Odoo field (`amount_total_words`), ALL your existing PDF reports (Standard or Custom) will automatically show the correct formatted text. No report editing required.
Global Ready | Multi-Language Support
The module supports Odoo's native translation system. Connector words like "AND", "Y", "ET" are translatable in standard PO files.

QA / User Testing Scenarios
Enterprise Validation Plan
Scenario 1: Force Uppercase
- Go to Accounting > Configuration > Journals and select a Journal (e.g., Invoices).
- Enable Amount in Uppercase.
- Create and Validate an Invoice with Amount 1,234.56.
- Result: Convert the Amount. It MUST be fully uppercase (e.g. "ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTY-FOUR..."). Verify that accents (in Spanish) are handled correctly if applicable.
Scenario 2: Custom Language Overrides
- Configure Journal: Set Amount Text Language to 'Spanish'.
- Obtain a Customer whose language is set to 'English'.
- Create an invoice for this English-speaking Customer.
- Result: The amount text MUST be in Spanish (e.g. "CIENTO..."), ignoring the Partner's English settings. This validates the override priority.
Scenario 3: Strict Compliance (00/100)
- Set Journal Format to Custom (00/100).
- Create Invoice for exactly 100.00.
- Result: Text should be "... AND 00/100 ...".
- Create Invoice for 120.50.
- Result: Text should be "... AND 50/100 ...". The fraction must be explicit.
Scenario 4: Credit Notes & Refunds
- Create a Credit Note (Invoice Return) in the configured journal.
- Validate the Credit Note.
- Result: The text should be generated correctly, potentially adding "MENOS" (Minus) if the amount is negative, or simply stating the positive amount depending on how your print report handles the sign. The formatting rules (Caps, Lang) must still apply.
Scenario 5: Multi-Company Environment
- Switch to Company B.
- Configure a Journal in Company B with different settings (e.g., Native Format, English).
- Check that Company A's journal (Custom, Spanish) remains unchanged.
- Result: Settings are strictly per-journal and do not leak between companies.
FAQ & Troubleshooting
Expert Resolutions
The text hasn't changed on my old posted invoices.
Reason: The amount text is computed and stored firmly in the database when the invoice is posted to ensure accounting immutability.
Fix: You must Reset to Draft and Re-post the invoice to trigger the new calculation. For bulk updates, a server action would be required.
Part of the text is in Spanish, part in English.
Reason: The module translates the numbers, but connector words like "AND" or "DOLLARS" depend on Odoo's translation terms.
Fix: Go to Settings > Translations. Search for " AND " (with spaces) or the Currency Name. Update the translation for your target language.
Does this work with my custom PDF report?
Answer: Yes, in 99% of cases.
Detail: If your custom report uses the standard fields `o.amount_total_words` or `o.currency_id.amount_to_text(o.amount_total)`, it will work automatically. If your report uses a completely hardcoded custom function, you may need to update your report to use the standard field.
Can I use a format other than "00/100"?
Answer: Currently, we support "Native" and "00/100".
Detail: The "00/100" format is hardcoded as a standard compliance requirement. If you need a radically different format (e.g., "cents"), please contact our support for a customization quote.
