Ability to manually generate a delivery slip

[Betafer]

Edit by Khouloud

In the BO => Order View page => Documents Tab, can we add a button to generate a Delivery slip?

---

Add the possibility to create the invoice and the transport document manually regardless of the status of the order.

It often happens that the necessity of the document is necessary even in the phases in which the order does not provide for it, for example, the customer requests the invoice to proceed with the payment, or print the delivery note before making the shipment in order to check the material .

I think this change would be appreciated by all shopkeepers who use prestashop as their main tool.

@Betafer, so in this case (payment accepted), your invoice is created automatically? is it?

Thanks!

[Betafer]

@Betafer, you need to select this option "Attach invoice PDF to email."

Thanks!

I don't want pdf attached to emails ...

@Betafer, I tried with the same settings in your case and all the documents are well generated. Untitled_ Mar 19, 2020 12_48 PM.webm.zip

Ok, this solution doesn't work correctly for me, because setting in order status generates invoices or deliver slips when order is created (paypal) o order i paid (bank wire) but for many reason, the order was not shipped in same day. It happens that you don't have the right date sequence in documents.

For me the best solution is create also a button for create Delivery slip like the one for the invoice.

Hello @Betafer, thanks for your feedback. What about creating a fake order status just to be able to download the delivery slip ? Could you give us more details of when you need to download an invoice or a delivery slip even though the order has not been paid or processed yet ?

Hello, @colinegin

having the button seems to me the simplest solution, also because if I change the order status the customer will not see the order in the correct state. I may need an invoice before payment, because the customer needs an invoice in order to pay.

I need the transport document to prepare the shipment, but now I have to set the order as shipped and then create the transport document. This can cause problems if for example an item is missing or there is some problem with the courier and therefore the material is not actually shipped.
