barcodes_generator_partner

Generate Barcodes for Partners

This module expends Odoo functionality, allowing user to generate barcode depending on a given barcode rule for Partners.

For exemple, a typical pattern for partners is "042........." that means that: * the EAN13 code will begin by '042' * followed by 0 digits (named Barcode Base in this module) * a 13 digit control

With this module, it is possible to:

• Affect a pattern (barcode.rule) to a res.partner

• Define a Barcode base:

  • manually, if the base of the barcode must be set by a user. (typically an internal code defined in your company)
  • automaticaly by a sequence, if you want to let Odoo to increment a sequence. (typical case of a customer number incrementation)

• Generate a barcode, based on the defined pattern and the barcode base

Configuration

To configure this module, see the 'Configuration' Section of the description of the module 'barcodes_generator_abstract'

Known issues / Roadmap

Dependency to point_of_sale is required because barcode field, defined in 'base' module (in the res.partner model), is defined in a 'point_of_sale' view.

It's a relative problem, because barcodes generation for partners will occures mostly in a Point of Sale context, to give barcodes to customers.

You could comment 'point_of_sale' dependencies if you want to use this module without point of sale installed.
