In most cases, payable invoices have a QR-code on them, I wonder if there is a way to easily create vendor bills in Odoo by scanning supplier's QR-bills.

Thanks Ray for your tips. It's a pitty that Odoo's OCR, even in V15 Entreprise, is still not able to read the swiss QR-Code on vendor bills. Odoo is probably the last actively marketed ERP in Switzerland not able to do it... Let's hope Odoo is working on it !

Good news at Fabien Pinckaers' presentation yesterday about v16! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZQJk3rCK0g
For the Swiss localization:
- Print QR-invoices in Batch
- POPULATE PAYMENT INFORMATION FROM QR CODE ON BILLS

It is not clear if for CE, I hope so!

Thanks!

This is not an option for Community users, but Odoo is rolling this functionality out on the AR side as we complete various localizations of the suite.

The current solution for automating data collection from Vendor Bills (also not for Community users) is OCR:

It is true we are investing everything we have into the Enterprise Edition, that is the edition we can use to support payroll for our 2,000 employees. Underlying that Edition is the Community Edition which we also maintain and update and provide many new features for. The features that are 'commodities' are in that Edition. The game changing features will be in the Enterprise Edition that over 30,000 (as of the time of posting) SME's around the world pay for each month. I have not met an SME since the release of version 9.0 for which the ROI of adopting the Enterprise Edition is not positive, sometimes massively so. I don't always answer questions posted here, I provide information that others reading them might find valuable. You just don't check the box on any comment that isn't an answer for you! ;)

Thanks Ray, your comment is really great, but it is not an answer to my question.
I might comment that I have indeed realized that Odoo is investing all their "chips" in the company's great AR OCR solution. However forgetting many SMEs that want to keep it simple and would be happy with the simplicity that many simple apps offer to easily scan QR and, due to the information it provides, streamline their activities. I believe that sooner or later the focus will turn to the precious SMEs!
