Dear community, I am fresh new with this. But it is taking a lot of effort and time to go through an issue I am facing with invoice printing in Odoo.

When I browse between invoices and I select print invoices option, I get this error message: "You need to start Odoo with at least two workers to print a pdf version of the report".


I have been dealing with users and employees, assigning employees to users. I have login with several different users but I cannot solve it. I have read that an employee cannot login itself, it is via user. Is worker the same like employee?


I  hope anyone can help me with that.

Thank you

Thank you. I could manage to solve my issue by editing the odoo.conf file and restarting the service.

path: /etc/odoo/odoo.conf

old: workers = 01

new: workers = 02


Thank you

error message mislead you here "worker" means process worker not employee or user
change your odoo config file and either remove worker param (it will odoo threaded server)  OR increase it to more than one
