Steps to Customizing POS Receipts in Odoo18

The first step in Customizing the Odoo18 POS Receipts is to create an XML file in the Static > Src > Xml directory.

We’re changing how the store receipt looks. Specifically, we want to add the partner’s name (like a company you work with) right under the word ‘Partner:’ on the receipt. To do this, we’re using a special code (XML) to tell the receipt where to put the name.

However, before we can show the name on the receipt, we need to tell the system what the partner’s name is. Think of it like filling out a form before printing it.

To do this, we need to create a small piece of code (JavaScript). This code will basically say, ‘Hey system, here’s the partner’s name. Please save it so we can put it on the receipt.’

So, first, we’ll write the JavaScript code to store the name, and then we’ll use the XML code to make sure it shows up on the receipt in the right place

The “patch” method and the “PosOrder” model are imported from the corresponding modules. The code adds additional data to the receipt’s header by altering the Order model’s “export_for_printing” method. In particular, it determines whether a partner is associated with the order and, if so, appends the partner’s information to the header data. More thorough PoS receipts, including client information where accessible, are made possible by this enhancement. After that, the modified method is sent back to the program for use. In order to ensure appropriate integration, all files are finally appended to the “manifest.py” file.
