PDF reports¶
With Studio, you can edit existing PDF reports (e.g., invoices, quotations, etc.) or create new ones.
เค้าโครงเริ่มต้น¶
The default layout of reports is managed outside Studio. Go to Companies section, click Configure Document Layout. Layout settings are company-specific but apply to all reports.
, then, in theTip
You can see how the different settings affect the report layout in the report preview on the right, or download a sample invoice PDF by clicking Download PDF Preview.
Use the following settings:
Layout: Four layouts are available:
Font: Seven fonts are available: Lato, Roboto, Open Sans, Montserrat, Oswald, Raleway, and Tajawal (which supports Arabic and Latin scripts). Go to the Google Fonts website to preview them.
Company logo: Click the Edit button to upload or change the logo. This adds the logo to the company’s record on the Company model, which you can access by going to and then clicking Update Info in the Companies section.
Colors: Change the primary and secondary colors used to structure reports. The default colors are automatically generated based on the colors of the logo.
Layout background: The following backgrounds are available:
Blank: nothing is displayed.
Geometric: an image featuring geometric shapes is displayed in the background.
Custom: upload a custom background image.
Company tagline: This is displayed in the header of external reports. You can add multiple lines of text.
Company details: These are displayed in the header of external reports. You can add multiple lines of text.
Paper format: to define the default paper size of reports. You can select A4 (21 cm x 29.7 cm), US Letter (21.59 cm x 27.54 cm), or QR codes page. This can also be defined for individual reports in the Paper format field in Studio.
Creating new PDF reports¶
To create a new report for a model, access the model, click the Toggle Studio button, then click Reports. Click New and, in the popup window that opens, select the type of report. This is solely used to determine what is displayed in the header and footer:
Once you have created the report, you can start editing it.
Editing PDF reports¶
To access the reports available for a model, access the model (e.g., sales orders), click the Toggle Studio button, then click Reports. Select an existing report to open it or create a new one.
Tip
Alternatively, you can also open Studio, click Reports, and search for a specific report or model.
Important
It is strongly recommended to duplicate the standard report and perform changes in the duplicated version. To duplicate a report, hover the mouse pointer on the top right corner of the report, click the vertical ellipsis icon (⋮), and then select Duplicate.
ตัวเลือก¶
Once you've selected or created a report, you can use the options in the left part of the screen to:
Change the Report name. The new name is applied everywhere (in Studio, under the Print button, and in the PDF file name).
Modify the Paper format. If no value is selected, the format defined in the default layout is used.
Show in print menu: to add the report in the Print menu available from the record.
Reload from attachment: to save the report as an attachment on the record the first time it is generated and reload the original version of the report any subsequent time. This is legally required for invoices and is mainly used in this case.
Limit visibility to groups: to limit the availability of the PDF report to specific user groups.
Edit sources: to modify the report directly in the XML file.
Reset report: to discard all changes made to the report and reset it to its standard version.
Print preview: to generate and download a report preview.
Report editor¶
The report editor allows you to modify the formatting and contents of the report.
Tip
You can Undo or Redo changes using the related buttons or the shortcuts
CTRL Z
andCTRL Y
.Changes are saved automatically when you leave the report or manually using the Save button.
You can reset the report to its standard version by clicking the Reset report button in the left part of the screen.
Important
Editing the header and footer of a report impacts all standard and custom reports.
Conditional blocks¶
The dashed rectangles represent conditional blocks (if/else statements). These are used to show/hide content based on specific conditions. Click on the block to view the conditions.
Select a value to preview its corresponding output and edit it if necessary.
Note
Conditions can only be edited in XML.
Other content¶
There are two types of text content in reports:
Static text, i.e., the text that's not highlighted in blue, which can be modified directly in the editor.
Dynamic text, i.e., the text that's highlighted in blue, which is replaced by field values when the report is generated, e.g., the SO number or the quotation date.
You can add content (e.g., fields, lists, tables, images, banners, etc.) to the report using
commands. Type /
to open the powerbox, then type the command's
name or select it from the list.
To add static text to the report, type the text where you want it.
For more advanced changes, you can edit the report in the XML directly.
Add a field¶
To add a field, type /
and select the Field command. In the list that opens, select
or search for the field; click the right arrow next to the field name to access the list of related
fields if needed. Then, specify the default value and press Enter
.
Add a data table¶
Data tables are used to display relational fields. To add
a data table, type /
, select the Dynamic Table command, and select the relation to be
displayed in the table.
Note
Only relations of type one2many
or many2many
can be displayed as data tables.
Once the table has been added, you can add columns using the table tools. Position the cursor on top of the column, then click the purple rectangle and select an option.
You can then insert the field of your choice in the columns. The dialog box that opens shows the source object for the field (e.g., the Tag model) and the list of available fields.
Note
The default row automatically iterates over the field's content, generating a row on the report for each field value (e.g., one row per tag). You can add static content rows above or below the generated rows using the table tools.
You can also add data tables by modifying the report's XML.
การจัดรูปแบบ¶
To format text in the report, select it, then format it using the options in the Text editor.
Editing the report's XML¶
Warning
Modifying the XML directly may result in report issues during upgrades. If this happens, simply copy your changes from the old database into your upgraded database.
To edit the report's XML, click Edit sources in the left pane.
ตัวอย่าง¶
Sometimes, tables are not properly recognized as such due to complex structures. In those cases, you can still modify them manually in the report XML. For example, with a sales order, you can find the following structure in the XML (simplified for documentation purposes):
<!-- table root element --> <table> <!-- thead = table header, the row with column titles --> <thead> <!-- table row element --> <tr> <!-- table header element --> <th>Name</th> <th>Price</th> </tr> </thead> <!-- table body, the main content --> <tbody> <!-- we create a row for each subrecord with t-foreach --> <tr t-foreach="record.some_relation_ids" t-as="line"> <!-- for each line, we output the name and price as table cells --> <td t-out="line.name"/> <td t-out="line.price"/> </tr> </tbody> </table>หากต้องการปรับเปลี่ยนตาราง คุณต้องแน่ใจว่าแต่ละแถวมีจำนวนเซลล์ข้อมูลเท่ากัน ตัวอย่างเช่น ในกรณีข้างต้น คุณต้องเพิ่มเซลล์ในส่วนหัว (เช่น ชื่อคอลัมน์) และอีกเซลล์หนึ่งในส่วนเนื้อหาที่มีเนื้อหาฟิลด์ (โดยปกติแล้วจะใช้ไดเรกทิฟ
t-out
หรือt-field
)<table> <!-- table root element --> <thead> <!-- thead = table header, the row with column titles --> <tr> <!-- table row element --> <th>Name</th> <!-- table header element --> <th>Price</th> <th>Category</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <!-- table body, the main content --> <tr t-foreach="record.some_relation_ids" t-as="line"> <!-- we create a row for each subrecord with t-foreach --> <td t-out="line.name"/> <!-- for each line, we output the name and price as table cells --> <td t-out="line.price"/> <td t-out="line.category_id.display_name"/> </tr> </tbody> </table>Note
Cells can span multiple rows or columns. For more information, go to the Mozilla Developer Network website.
For example, you can modify the Quotation/Order report to add a column to display the product category in the main table:
<table class="table table-sm o_main_table table-borderless mt-4"> <!-- In case we want to repeat the header, remove "display: table-row-group" --> <thead style="display: table-row-group"> <tr> <th name="th_description" class="text-start">Description</th> <th>Product Category</th> <th name="th_quantity" class="text-end">Quantity</th> <th name="th_priceunit" class="text-end">Unit Price</th> [...] <tr t-att-class="'bg-200 fw-bold o_line_section' if line.display_type == 'line_section' else 'fst-italic o_line_note' if line.display_type == 'line_note' else ''"> <t t-if="not line.display_type"> <td name="td_name"><span t-field="line.name">Bacon Burger</span></td> <td t-out="line.product_id.categ_id.display_name"/> <td name="td_quantity" class="text-end"> <span t-field="line.product_uom_qty">3</span> <span t-field="line.product_uom">units</span> <span t-if="line.product_packaging_id">
To add a table in XML, you need to know the names of the fields and objects you wish to access and display. As an example, let's add a table that details the tags on a sales order:
<!-- table root element -->
<table class="table">
<!-- thead = table header, the row with column titles -->
<thead>
<!-- table row element -->
<tr>
<!-- table header element -->
<th>ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<!-- table body, the main content -->
<tbody>
<!-- we create a row for each subrecord with t-foreach -->
<tr t-foreach="doc.tag_ids" t-as="tag">
<!-- for each line, we output the name and price as table cells -->
<td t-out="tag.id"/>
<td t-out="tag.name"/>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Note
When adding tables manually, style them using Bootstrap classes, like the table
class included in the
example above.
If you want to show/hide content based on specific conditions, you can manually add if/else
control statements in the report XML.
For example, if you want to hide a custom data table if there are no tags, you can use the t-if
attribute to define the condition, which is then evaluated as True
or False
. The table will
not be displayed if there are no tags in the quotation.
<!-- table root element -->
<table class="table" t-if="len(doc.tag_ids) > 0">
<!-- thead = table header, the row with column titles -->
<thead>
<!-- table row element -->
<tr>
<!-- table header element -->
<th>ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<!-- table body, the main content -->
<tbody>
<!-- we create a row for each subrecord with t-foreach -->
<tr t-foreach="doc.tag_ids" t-as="tag">
<!-- for each line, we output the name and price as table cells -->
<td t-out="tag.id"/>
<td t-out="tag.name"/>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
หากคุณต้องการแสดงบล็อกอื่นในกรณีที่คำสั่ง t-if
ถูกประเมินว่าเป็น 'False' คุณสามารถระบุได้โดยใช้คำสั่ง 't-else` บล็อก 't-else' ต้องอยู่หลังบล็อก 't-if' โดยตรงในโครงสร้างเอกสาร ไม่จำเป็นต้องระบุเงื่อนไขใดๆ ในแอตทริบิวต์ "t-else" เป็นตัวอย่าง เรามาแสดงข้อความสั้นๆ ที่อธิบายว่าไม่มีแท็กในใบเสนอราคา:
<!-- table root element -->
<table class="table" t-if="len(doc.tag_ids) > 0">
<!-- thead = table header, the row with column titles -->
<thead>
<!-- table row element -->
<tr>
<!-- table header element -->
<th>ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<!-- table body, the main content -->
<tbody>
<!-- we create a row for each subrecord with t-foreach -->
<tr t-foreach="doc.tag_ids" t-as="tag">
<!-- for each line, we output the name and price as table cells -->
<td t-out="tag.id"/>
<td t-out="tag.name"/>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<div class="text-muted" t-else="">No tag present on this document.</div>
By using the t-if/t-else
notation, the report editor recognizes that these sections are
mutually exclusive and should be displayed as conditional blocks:
You can switch conditions using the editor to preview their output:
If you wish to have multiple options, you can also use t-elif
directives to add intermediary
conditions. For example, this is how the title of sales order reports changes based on the
condition of the underlying document.
<h2 class="mt-4">
<span t-if="env.context.get('proforma', False) or is_pro_forma">Pro-Forma Invoice # </span>
<span t-elif="doc.state in ['draft','sent']">Quotation # </span>
<span t-else="">Order # </span>
<span t-field="doc.name">SO0000</span>
</h2>
The title Pro-Forma Invoice is used depending on some contextual conditions. If these
conditions are not met and the state of the document is either draft
or sent
, then
Quotation is used. If none of those conditions are met, the report's title is Order.
การทำงานกับรูปภาพในรายงานอาจเป็นเรื่องท้าทาย เนื่องจากการควบคุมขนาดและลักษณะการทำงานของรูปภาพอย่างแม่นยำนั้นไม่ชัดเจนเสมอไป คุณสามารถแทรกฟิลด์รูปภาพโดยใช้ตัวแก้ไขรายงาน (โดยใช้คำสั่ง /Field) แต่การแทรกฟิลด์เหล่านี้ลงใน XML โดยใช้คำสั่ง t-field
และแอตทริบิวต์ t-options
ที่มาพร้อมกันนั้นจะช่วยให้ควบคุมขนาดและตำแหน่งได้ดีขึ้น
For example, the following code outputs the field image_128
of the line's product as a
64px-wide image (with an automatic height based on the image's aspect ratio).
<span t-field="line.product_id.image_128" t-options-widget="image" t-options-width="64px"/>
The following options are available for image widgets:
width
: width of the image, usually in pixels or CSS length units (e.g.,rem
) (leave empty for auto-width).height
: height of the image, usually in pixels or CSS length units (e.g.,rem
) (leave empty for auto-height).class
: CSS classes applied on theimg
tag; Bootstrap classes are available.alt
: alternative text of the imagestyle
: style attribute; it allows you to override styles more freely than with Bootstrap classes.
These attributes must contain strings, i.e., text enclosed within quotes within quotes, e.g.,
t-options-width="'64px'"
(or, alternatively, a valid Python expression).
Note
The image widget cannot be used on an img
tag. Instead, set the t-field
directive on a
span
(for inline content) or div
(for block content) node.
For example, let's add a column with the product image in the quotation table:
<table class="table table-sm o_main_table table-borderless mt-4">
<thead style="display: table-row-group">
<tr>
<th>Image</th>
<th name="th_description" class="text-start">Description</th>
<th>Product Category</th>
<th name="th_quantity" class="text-end">Quantity</th>
<th name="th_priceunit" class="text-end">Unit Price</th>
[...]
<t t-foreach="lines_to_report" t-as="line">
<t t-set="current_subtotal" t-value="current_subtotal + line.price_subtotal"/>
<tr t-att-class="'bg-200 fw-bold o_line_section' if line.display_type == 'line_section' else 'fst-italic o_line_note' if line.display_type == 'line_note' else ''">
<t t-if="not line.display_type">
<td>
<span t-field="line.product_template_id.image_128"
t-options-widget="'image'"
t-options-width="'64px'"
t-options-class="'rounded-3 shadow img-thumbnail'"
/>
</td>
<td name="td_name"><span t-field="line.name">Bacon Burger</span></td>
<td t-out="line.product_id.categ_id.display_name"/>
The t-options-width
attribute restricts the image width to 64 pixels, and the Bootstrap classes
used in t-options-class
create a thumbnail-like border with rounded corners and a shadow.
