Product Search Fields

Sellers often know a product by its Arabic name or an old code rather than the internal reference. This module adds two fields to the product form: an Arabic name and another internal reference. Product search and name lookup then also match these values. Sales, purchase and inventory users benefit when they pick products in documents. It plugs into the product catalogue used by all these apps.

1. 1

   Fill the extra fields

   On the product form the user enters the Arabic name and the other internal reference. Both are ordinary text fields. They are saved with the product template.

   • Field: Product Name AR
   • Field: Other Internal Reference
   • Saved on the template
2. 2

   Search products

   Typing in the product search box also matches the two new values. The product list shows the product when the Arabic name or the other code is entered. No filter needs to be chosen.

   • Search box extended
   • Arabic name matches
   • Other code matches
3. 3

   Find products in documents

   When adding a line to a quotation or purchase order the product selector uses name lookup. The module extends it so typing the Arabic name finds the product. Users save time choosing the right item.

   • Works in sales lines
   • Works in purchase lines
   • Name lookup extended
4. 4

   Apply to variants

   The product variant model is extended in the same way. Search on variants also finds the values entered on the template. This keeps results consistent everywhere.

   • Model: product.product
   • Inherited values
   • Consistent results
