Automatic price when invoice

I am trying to use tryton 6.x

when i create an invoice and select the product the price do not appears. I read that a price list must be created (the price seems tied to product). Ok but there is no how-to, and the documentation is ‘smal’

https://docs.tryton.org/latest/modules-product-price-list/index.html

I create a price list for the company choose
unit_product defaut
pick-up a category and choose list_price

th price still not appearing.

where to find some documentation to read to make it work ?

The invoice does not compute any price. If you want to have automatic price computation, you must use the sales.

when you juste need to make an invoice, there is a lot of operation you must have to do, a lot of clicks. Of course when you want to have an amazon-like process, this is perfect, but when you just want to create an invoice, there are a lot of opération not usefull to do.

i use tryton 3.4 for years for my accounting and it was really really much more simpler. For a simple company tryton 3.4 is better

anyway thanks for that really quick response :wink:

GitHub - NaN-tic/trytond-account_invoice_price_list could help.

out of curiosity, why is it simpler to create an invoice instead of a a sale ?

ok, let’s imagine i sell 3 hours of training
in 3.4 i go to invoice && add product && post && validate => print the invoice.

in 6.0.29
i go to sale && choose wharehouse && chosose carrier && add product && post && confirm && “traiter”&& go to “invoice”’ && dbl click on it && validate && post and if all goes well you can print

Don’t you think one thing is more simple ?

Maybe i do not know how to use it. As i saif i use trtons, his paretns ands grands parents for maybe 15 years.

maybe i should uninstall sale, but i do not know enought tryton to clearly understand what would be the consequences. I will not be the final user of the erp, just tryong to put i up because i advocate for tryton on, place of others solutions

If you sale only services, you do no need for a warehouse nor carrier.

Also your workflow is quite strange because you invoice before providing the service?

In the future service would be invoiced once provided: Add module to allow services to be invoiced when they are done (#9999) · Issues · Tryton / Tryton · GitLab
Which will provide an even more consistant workflow.

ok.

i think that i did not well explained.

sometimes you have a book with you . and the people want to buy it. They give you 50 bucks.

you can take in your pocket and that’s it. but if you want to make an invoice, you have 2 solutions go invoice and write the price you already write in the configuration of your product or got to sale and take the long way home.

another exemple. You have a shop in… prestashop. that take care about almost everything. But you need to do accountancy elsewhere. Of course one can (and i will do) write some night scripts that pull the day sales of prestashop and insert them in posgresql and “validate” with sql queries. but this is long way to go by hand. of course one could write the product price.

Sometimes you do all in the same time : get the money, package the book and write the invoice (inserted in the package). it is for companies everyday-works. And sometimes they have to do the long way because some one ask for price and want a pre-invoice.

I do really understand that a big companies really needs that “workflow” and i do really understand the great works in that workflow. (some modules…would need some work but it’s ok ; a table with ‘-’ in her name !!!) and the great work to be able to change things “easily” - the doc should be more heavy, (but i write everything i had to do to make it work some simple how-to with exemples would be pretty appreciate by some folks, as i do not want to “sale” my work on it other than what i am doing, i’ll give it for free.)

people won’t understand they have to write price already in the product, and some will have hard time to be convinced that if they want the long way for some times, they are forced to that way every times

But i do understand the reasons.

by the way i saw some “test” in a module that implement a more tryton-ic solution to insert those datas.

i’ll see what is the solutions that will be more “convenient” and and accessible for me
