Deliveries and invoices to different addresses

People and businesses often use separate addresses for billing (invoicing) and shipping (delivery) purposes. With the Odoo Sales app, contacts can have different specified addresses for delivery and invoicing.

Impostazioni

To properly utilize multiple addresses in Odoo, go to Accounting app ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings, and scroll down to the Customer Invoices heading. Then, tick the checkbox.

Activate the Customer Addresses setting.

Contact form configuration

To add multiple addresses to a contact, go to Sales app ‣ Orders ‣ Customers, and clear any default filters from the search bar. Then, click on the desired customer to open their contact form.

Suggerimento

Contact forms can be accessed in the Contacts application, as well.

From the contact form, click Edit, and then select Add, which is located under the Contacts & Addresses tab. Doing so reveals a Create Contact pop-up form, in which additional addresses can be configured.

Aggiungere un contatto/indirizzo al modulo contatto

On the Create Contact pop-up form, start by clicking the default Other Address field to reveal a drop-down menu of address-related options.

Seleziona una delle seguenti opzioni:

  • Contatto: aggiunge un altro contatto al modulo esistente.

  • Indirizzo di fatturazione: aggiunge un indirizzo di fatturazione specifico al modulo contatto esistente.

  • Indirizzo di consegna: aggiunge un indirizzo di consegna specifico al modulo contatto esistente.

  • Altro indirizzo: aggiunge un indirizzo alternativo al modulo di contatto esistente.

  • Indirizzo privato: aggiunge un indirizzo privato al modulo di contatto esistente.

Once an option is selected, proceed to enter the corresponding contact information that should be used for the specified address type.

Creare un nuovo contatto/indirizzo su un modulo contatto

Then, click Save & Close to save the address and close the Create Contact window. Or, click Save & New to save the address and immediately input another one.

Address added to quotations

When a customer is added to a quotation, the Invoice Address and Delivery Address fields autopopulate with the corresponding addresses specified on the customer’s contact form.

Invoice and Delivery Addresses autopopulate on a quotation.

The Invoice Address and Delivery Address can also be edited directly from the quotation by clicking the Edit button, and then clicking the ➡️ (right arrow) internal link buttons next to each address line.

These addresses can be updated at any time to ensure accurate invoicing and delivery.
