The Warnings on Contact for POS module extends and enhances Odoo’s standard warning system for partner records by introducing repeated warnings and integrating them into the Point of Sale (POS) module. In standard Odoo, contact warnings typically show only once when creating a Sales Order, Invoice, Purchase Order, or Delivery, and no support is provided for POS. This module fills that gap and provides better visibility and control for businesses using POS terminals.

Key Features:

  • POS Warning Support
    Displays partner warnings directly in the POS interface when a cashier selects a customer, making critical notes (e.g., outstanding payments, special handling instructions) visible in real-time.
  • Repeat Warning Toggle
    A new toggle is added under each warning type in the customer’s Internal Notes tab. When turned on, the warning appears every time a relevant document (Sales Order, Purchase Order, Invoice, Picking, or POS session) is accessed—not just once.
  • Consistent Behavior Across Modules
    Warnings in POS now function the same way as in Sales, Purchase, Invoice, and Picking modules. The toggle ensures consistent user alerts across your entire Odoo system.

User Workflow:

  1. Navigate to Contacts and set a warning under the Internal Notes tab.
  2. Enable the toggle if you want the message to show up repeatedly.
  3. Launch a POS session.
  4. Add a product and assign the customer.
  5. The warning will automatically pop up based on the toggle behavior.

Benefits:

  • Prevent cashiers and staff from missing critical warnings.
  • Improve consistency and reliability of operational alerts.
  • Reduce customer service issues related to overlooked notes or instructions.

Ideal For:

Retailers, restaurants, or service businesses using POS and needing customer-specific alerts to ensure smooth transactions and better service delivery.
