Abonnementprodukte

By closely integrating with the Odoo Sales app, the Subscriptions app enables users to sell subscription products alongside regular sales products. While regular products are sold on a one-time basis, subscription products are sold on a renewing basis, generating recurring revenue.

In Odoo werden Abonnementprodukte auch wiederkehrende Produkte genannt.

Wiederholungszeiträume konfigurieren

To get started with subscriptions, the recurrence periods must be properly configured, as needed.

Wiederholungszeiträume sind die Zeiträume, in denen Abonnements erneuert werden. Sie legen fest, wie oft der Kunde für Abonnementprodukte bezahlt (oder diese erhält).

To configure recurrence periods, go to Subscriptions app ‣ Configuration ‣ Recurrence periods.

The recurrence periods page in Odoo Subscriptions application.

The Subscriptions app comes with some basic recurrence periods already configured:

  • Monthly

  • Quarterly

  • Weekly

  • 2 Weeks

  • Yearly

  • 3 Years

  • 5 Years

New recurrence periods can be added and/or edited at any time.

To create a new recurrence period, click New on the Recurrence Periods page. Doing so reveals a blank recurrence period form.

Then, type in the Name and Duration of the recurrence period, and select the Unit that defines the duration.

Wichtig

The unit Days cannot be used as a recurrence period on subscriptions. The daily recurrence is meant for rentals, and cannot be added on recurring subscription sales orders.

This limitation is there to avoid sales orders that would generate daily invoices.

Product form configuration

To create a new subscription product, navigate to Subscriptions app ‣ Products ‣ Products, and click New.

Doing so reveals a blank product form, which can be configured and customized in a number of ways.

Bemerkung

By default, the Recurring option is already enabled, prompting Odoo to recognize it as a subscription product. Be sure to leave the Recurring and Can be Sold options enabled.

The Product Type field is set to Service by default, as well. However, subscription products can be set to other types, if needed.

Tipp

An existing product can be made into a subscription product, simply by marking it as Recurring, and configuring Time-based pricing on the product form.

Preislisten

Pricelists can be used with subscription products to give special pricing to customers included in pricelists.

This can be configured either in the Time-based pricing tab of the product form, or on the pricelist form in the Sales application.

Pricelists are also accessible through the Odoo Subscriptions app by following the same menu steps.

Then, on the pricelist form, under the Time-based rules tab, click Add a line.
