+ Features
+Easy creation of auto-filled documents
++ There is no need to create a complex HTML template that is difficult to edit + and customize. It is enough to take a template in Docx format and insert the necessary values in + the right places. +
+Access to all attributes of the model
++ During the creation of the report, the model to which this report belongs is + specified. When creating a report template, we can refer to any attribute of the specified + model. +
+Easy template maintenance
++ There is no need to change the template in the Odoo code; it is enough to + upload a new template through the user interface. +
+The amount-to-words methods are available
++ Thanks to these methods, we can insert numbers and sums with currencies in + words and round the numbers to the desired accuracy. +
+
+ How to use
+Step 1: Install the module
+
+ + Open the Apps menu in your Odoo and install the module "DOCX report". +
+
+ Step 2: Activate the Developer Mode
+
+ + To create a new report in the user interface, we need to activate the + developer mode. +
+
+ Step 3: Open Reports
+
+ + Now you should go back to the settings. Click "Technical", scroll down the + list, and click "Reports". +
+
+ Step 4: Create Docx template
+
+ + 1. To get model attributes like model field values, use the word "docs" + + (dot) + model field name. +
++ 2. To call a model method that returns a value, use the word "record" + . + (dot) + model method name + () to call it. +
+3. Use double curly braces "{{ }}" to call methods and attributes.
++ 4. Use curly braces with the percentage sign "{% %}" to create local + variables and use loops and if conditions. +
+
+ Step 5: Reports list view
+
+ + When the Reports list view will be opened, click the "New" button to create a + new report. +
+
+ Step 6: Create a Report
+
+ 1. To create a new report, you should fill out the form.
++ 2. "Action name" is the name that will be shown in the Print menu of the + model. +
+3. "Report Type" should be DOCS or DOCX (PDF). The gotenberg service is used + to create pdf files. To use it, you need to install the Odoo module to communicate with the + service and enter the access details.
++ 4. "Model name" is the name of the model. Fields and methods will be derived + from this model. +
++ 5. "Report docx template" is the template file that was created at step 4. +
++ 6. "Printed report name" is the name of the file after generation. +
++ 7. To add this report to the Print menu, you should click on the button "Add + in the Print". +
+
+ Step 7: Create a custom field
+
+ + 1. Custom fields are needed to get data that is not in the fields of the model associated with + the + report. Thanks to them, you can get data from other models, for example, through the reference + fields of the current model. +
+ 2. To create a custom field you should click "Custom Fields" menu on the form + and then click "Add a line" +
+3. After that, write your Python code for the new variable.
+4. In the template, custom fields are available by the name specified in the + "tech_name" field of the custom field entry. For exapmle: {{ contract_date }}.
+
+ Step 8: Print the Report
+
+ + After printing the report the file will be saved. The information from the + model will complete the template. +
+
+ Step 9: Make a report from the Python code
+
+ If you want to make the report from the Python code, you should make an + ir.action.report record and an ir.attachment record that is connected to the first one. Add the + path to the Docx template from step 4.
