Product catalog

Estimated reading: 2 minutes 256 views

The Odoo product catalog is a visual, POS-style way to add products or components to a quotation, purchase request, manufacturing order or bill of materials, instead of adding lines one at a time from a drop-down.

How to open the catalog

  1. Open a quotation, request for quotation, order or bill of materials.
  2. On its first tab (labelled Order Lines, Components, Products or Parts depending on the form), click Catalog on the first blank line.

What the catalog shows

Each product appears as a card with its photo, title, price or cost, reference code, on-hand quantity and any variant attributes. Use the search bar to filter by Services or Products, or by In the Order to see only items already added. The sidebar filters by Product Category or Attributes.

How to add products

  1. Click a product’s card, or its Add button, to add one unit; clicking again adds more.
  2. Use the minus and plus buttons, or type a quantity directly, to adjust it.
  3. Click Remove, or reduce the quantity to zero, to take a product off the order.
  4. Click Back to the form to return with the selected items added to its lines.

Products can be added even with zero units on hand, so it is worth checking real availability before confirming the order.
