Subscription products
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
When creating a subscription, at least one product on the order lines must be configured as
|
||||
:ref:`recurring <subscriptions/product/recurring>`.
|
||||
By integrating closely with the Odoo *Sales* app, the *Subscriptions* app enables users to sell
|
||||
subscription products alongside regular sales products. While regular products are sold on a
|
||||
one-time basis, subscription products are sold on a renewing basis, generating recurring revenue.
|
||||
|
||||
If a single product is sold using more than one recurrence period, configure the product's
|
||||
:ref:`time-based pricing <subscriptions/product/time-based-pricing>` to automatically adapt the unit
|
||||
price on the subscription based on the recurrence set.
|
||||
In Odoo, subscription products are also called *recurring* products.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
Configure recurrence periods
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
To get started with subscriptions, first make sure that the *recurrence periods* are configured as
|
||||
needed.
|
||||
|
||||
To create a recurring product, go to :menuselection:`Subscriptions --> Subscriptions --> Products`
|
||||
and click :guilabel:`New`. Choose a :guilabel:`Product Name` and leave :guilabel:`Recurring` and
|
||||
:guilabel:`Can be Sold` enabled.
|
||||
Recurrence periods are the time periods in which subscriptions renew. They designate how often the
|
||||
customer pays for (and receives) subscription products.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _subscriptions/product/time-based-pricing:
|
||||
To configure recurrence periods, go to :menuselection:`Subscriptions --> Configuration -->
|
||||
Recurrence Periods`.
|
||||
|
||||
The *Subscriptions* app comes with some basic recurrence periods already configured: Daily, Monthly,
|
||||
Quarterly, Weekly, Yearly, 3 Years, and 5 Years. These can be edited as needed, and any number of
|
||||
new recurrence periods can be added.
|
||||
|
||||
To create a new recurrence period, click :guilabel:`New` on the recurrence periods dashboard. Then,
|
||||
type in the :guilabel:`Name` and :guilabel:`Duration` of the recurrence period, and select the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Unit` that defines the duration.
|
||||
|
||||
.. example::
|
||||
To create a recurrence period for a subscription that will renew every two weeks, set the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Duration` to `2` and the :guilabel:`Unit` to `Weeks`.

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Configure the product form
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
To create a new subscription product, navigate to the :menuselection:`Subscriptions` app. Then go to
|
||||
:menuselection:`Subscriptions --> Products`, and click :guilabel:`New` to create a new product.
|
||||
Enter a :guilabel:`Product Name`.
|
||||
|
||||
The :guilabel:`Product Type` for the new product is automatically set to :guilabel:`Service`.
|
||||
Subscription products can be set to other types as well; however, they currently *cannot* be set to
|
||||
:guilabel:`Storable Product`.
|
||||
|
||||
The new product automatically has the :guilabel:`Recurring` checkbox activated. This enables Odoo to
|
||||
recognize it as a subscription product. Be sure to leave the :guilabel:`Recurring` and
|
||||
:guilabel:`Can be Sold` options enabled.

|
||||
Time-based pricing
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To set a recurring product's time-based pricing, go to :menuselection:`Subscriptions -->
|
||||
Subscriptions --> Products`, select a product, and open the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` tab.
|
||||
Click :guilabel:`Add a price`, select a :guilabel:`Period`, and set a :guilabel:`Price`. Add as many
|
||||
prices as needed.
|
||||
Next, configure the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` tab on the product form.
|
||||
|
||||
Click :guilabel:`Add a price` to begin defining recurring prices. In the :guilabel:`Period` column,
|
||||
select a recurrence period. In the :guilabel:`Price` column, enter the price for that recurrence
|
||||
period.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
:guilabel:`Daily` and :guilabel:`Hourly` periods cannot be used on recurring products.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _subscriptions/product/pricelists:
|
||||
Add as many lines as needed to the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` table.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
An existing product can be made into a subscription product simply by marking it as
|
||||
:guilabel:`Recurring` and configuring :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` on the product form.
|
||||
|
||||
A subscription product can still be sold as a regular product by adding it to a quotation and
|
||||
*not* selecting a :guilabel:`Recurrence` on the quotation.
|
||||
|
||||
Pricelists
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
:doc:`Pricelists <../sales/products_prices/prices/pricing>` can be used with recurring products. To
|
||||
do so, go to :menuselection:`Sales --> Products --> Pricelists`, click :guilabel:`New`, name the
|
||||
pricelist, and open the :guilabel:`Time-based rules` tab. Click :guilabel:`Add a line`, select a
|
||||
:guilabel:`Period`, and set a :guilabel:`Price`. Add as many lines as needed. Once done, the
|
||||
product's :ref:`time-based pricing <subscriptions/product/time-based-pricing>` tab is automatically
|
||||
updated.
|
||||
Use :doc:`pricelists </applications/sales/sales/products_prices/prices/pricing>` with subscription
|
||||
products to give special pricing to customers included in pricelists. This can be configured either
|
||||
in the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` tab of the product form, or on the pricelist form in the
|
||||
*Sales* app.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _subscriptions/product/ecommerce:
|
||||
To create recurring price rules for specific pricelists in the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` tab of
|
||||
the product form, select a pricelist in the :guilabel:`Pricelist` column.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
When a recurring product uses :ref:`time-based pricing <subscriptions/product/time-based-pricing>`,
|
||||
only the shortest period is used on the eCommerce product page by default.
|
||||
When pricelists are added to the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` tab, the pricelist form in the
|
||||
*Sales* app is automatically updated.
|
||||
|
||||
To let the customer select the period, go to :menuselection:`Subscriptions --> Subscriptions -->
|
||||
Products`, select a product, and open the :guilabel:`Attributes & Variants` tab. Name the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Attribute`, create :guilabel:`Values` for the different periods that should be available,
|
||||
and save manually. Open the :guilabel:`Time-based pricing` tab and select the correct
|
||||
:guilabel:`Product Variants` for each :guilabel:`Period`.
|
||||
Time-based pricing rules can also be configured directly on the pricelist form. To do this, go to
|
||||
:menuselection:`Sales --> Products --> Pricelists` and select a pricelist (or click :guilabel:`New`
|
||||
to create a new pricelist). In the :guilabel:`Time-based rules` tab, click :guilabel:`Add a line`.
|
||||
|
||||
.. seealso::
|
||||
:doc:`../../websites/ecommerce/managing_products/variants`
|
||||
Then, select a subscription product in the :guilabel:`Products` column, and select a recurrence
|
||||
period in the :guilabel:`Period` column. Enter a :guilabel:`Price` for that particular product and
|
||||
period. Add as many lines as needed.
|
||||
|
||||
When :guilabel:`Time-based rules` are added to the pricelist form, the :guilabel:`Time-based
|
||||
pricing` tab of the product form is automatically updated.
