I am using Odoo v16 online enterprise. I have come across a situaltion several times that I need to add one by one items in purchase order, which is very time consuming task.
In reality. I dont create purchase orders and send them to vendor. I call vendor, tell them to prepare offer for me. I go through the offer and send confirmation. Then I receive the products with bill. Then I add quantites and expiry dates to the system.
So, why should not I be able to directly import bill with received quanitties and expiry dates of each products.
Basically, I dont want to go each product --> add quantity --> add expiry date. Better to import one file containing, product name, product quantity, expiry dates and that's it.
Let me know how to get this done.

Hello Any Answer on above comment?

Creyox Technologies

Hello,

You can import products and its quantity from excel file and we directly process it. But for that a custom script required for upload the excel and read excel file and create the order line accordingly.

Thanks,

Per the Odoo assistance I am informed that "importing purchase orders, will require a product name, with a product ID is not possible."

This is an issue as it will create duplicates of products if the name is even slightly different from was is in your db

There is no direct solution for it but you can do this using the create value at runtime import of the record.

For one-time export the purchase order template xlsx or CSV file according to your needed fields

Second, suppose you have vendors that are not predefined in your system and there are products also not predefined in the system so while importing there are three options given if your value does not match with the system record select create new value so according to that your vendor are created and also your product are created then after only you update your things that remaining in both fields.


If this is useful for you then please first check and test in the testing database
Hope it will be useful for you.
