As soon the app is installed, current products' references might be re-calculated

This is an Odoo tool to implement product automatic coding. The app is flexible enough to reflect almost any product reference structure since it lets you define as many code parts and as complex criteria as you need.

Advanced rules for product references

Define code positions that will satisfy business specifics. Have as many parts as it's needed. Distinguish complex criteria to apply parts for products of specific kinds and not for others

Automatic code generation

The app regularly checks updates of code rules and of products. Product references are automatically changed accordingly without user interactions

Manual product numbering

Mark certain products as 'Manual reference': their codes will not be influenced by the rules and will become editable. Products with pre-defined codes (e.g. created by import) by default have manual references

Secured codes

The right to define product coding rules belongs only to Odoo administrators

Based on standard Odoo tools

Product coding is global: rules are equally applied for each company, but you can restrict products in rules by using filters by company.

Codes are calculated in a current user language. Avoid using translated fields for code rules.

Odoo product automatic code example

Automatic product references are based on flexible rules

  • Product references are generated based on code parts. Define as many dynamic and static parts as you need. For example, the first position relates to a category, the second - to a manufacturer, the third - to the attribute 'material', etc.
  • Code positions for certain products might be empty: e.g. for services, there is no sense to have a code part of the attribute 'material'
  • Each position has rules to generate a code value which might be static (e.g. '-AL') or dynamic (e.g. first 2 letters of category name). In order for a code part to be calculated for a product, there should be at least a single rule this product satisfies
  • As dynamic code use any standard or custom field of a product variant or template: char, integer, float, date and date with time, selection, and many2one. In the case of many2one field (e.g. a related product category) you should select its linked field (for example, a category name)
  • For dynamic code, use not only the whole field value but also its part. For instance, apply the first 2 letters (0-1) of a category name or only the month of a manufacture date (5-7). Leave '0' at both the start and the end to retrieve the whole field value.

Product references are auto-updated

  • When a product is created or changed
  • Regularly by the cron job for all products (have a look a the tab 'Configuration', the section 'Scheduled jobs')
  • Manually when you push the button on a product form
  • Manually for all products when you push the button on the configuration page
  • Such complex logic is introduced to avoid slowdowns. The point is that code rules are advanced and there is no way to define recalculation triggers. Generating codes on the fly will result in low performance. That is why to make sure codes are generated, Odoo regularly looks over all products.

Configuration and Installation Tips for Product Dynamic Codes Odoo v.18

Scheduled jobs

You may change the frequency of automatic references' updates. To this end:

  1. Turn on debug mode
  2. Go to technical settings > Automation > Scheduled jobs
  3. Find the job 'Construct Dynamic Codes'.

Odoo demonstration databases (live previews)

For this app, we might provide a free personalized demo database.

No phone number or credit card is required to contact us: only a short email sign up which does not take more than 30 seconds.

By your request, we will prepare an individual live preview database, where you would be able to apply any tests and check assumptions for 14 days.

Bug reporting

In case you have faced any bugs or inconsistent behavior, do not hesitate to contact us. We guarantee to provide fixes within 60 days after the purchase, while even after this period we are strongly interested to improve our tools.

No phone number or credit card is required to contact us: only a short email sign up which does not take more than 30 seconds.

Please include in your request as many details as possible: screenshots, Odoo server logs, a full description of how to reproduce your problem, and so on. Usually, it takes a few business days to prepare a working plan for an issue (if a bug is confirmed) or provide you with guidelines on what should be done (otherwise).

Public features requests and module ideas (free development)

We are strongly motivated to improve our tools and would be grateful for any sort of feedback. In case your requirements are of public use and might be efficiently implemented, the team would include those in our to-do list.

Such a to-do list is processed on a regular basis and does not assume extra fees. Although we cannot promise deadlines and final design, it might be a good way to get desired features without investments and risks.
