Sale Order Line Image

Documents with pictures are easier to check and to approve. This small module adds a 128-pixel product image to each line of the sale order report. It extends the Sales app and needs no configuration or new screens. Users simply print the document as usual.

1. 1

   Install the module

   The administrator installs the module from Apps. It depends only on the Sales app. No menu, setting or group is added. The report template is extended automatically.

   • Install from Apps
   • Depends on Sales only
   • No configuration
2. 2

   Give products an image

   Products need an image on their form, as usual. The line takes the image from the product through a related 128-pixel field on the order line. Products without an image show an empty cell. No extra data entry is required.

   • Add the image on the product form
   • Line field is related and read-only
   • Missing image leaves a blank cell
3. 3

   Prepare the document

   The user creates or opens the sale order and adds lines as usual. Nothing changes in the form. The image field is available on the line model for reports. Lines with notes or sections behave as before.

   • Add lines as usual
   • Form is unchanged
   • Sections and notes unaffected
4. 4

   Print and check the report

   Printing the document shows the product image at 128 pixels on each line in the PDF. The report layout is inherited, so headings, totals and taxes stay standard. The image helps the recipient identify the item. Sending by email uses the same PDF.

   • Image shown on every line
   • Standard totals and taxes
   • Same PDF when emailed
