This commit is part of a larger work to improve the documentation's structure. The toctree structure used to add levels to create categories and make the structure visually more understandable. With the new version of the documentation, plenty of these categories are now redundant. This commit: - removes the main "settings" section - move its content to general/odoo_basics - moves "general/mobile" content to "general" - moves the content of the doc "developer_mode/activate" to "general" - it replaces the references to that doc with `:ref:` directives rather than `:doc:` directives - it is worth noting that it also fixes plenty of links that previously referred to "developer_mode" (the category) rather than "developer_mode/activate" (the document) task-2535899

In-App Purchase (IAP)
|
||
=====================
|
||
|
||
In-App Purchases (IAP) gives access to additional services through Odoo. For instance, it allows you
|
||
to send SMS Text Messages or to send Invoices by post directly from my database.
|
||
|
||
Buying Credits
|
||
==============
|
||
|
||
Each IAP Service relies on prepaid credits to work and has its own pricing. To consult my current
|
||
balance or to recharge my account, go to :menuselection:`Settings --> Odoo IAP --> View my
|
||
Services`.

|
||
|
||
.. tip::
|
||
If I am on Odoo Online (SAAS) and have the Enterprise version, I benefit from free credits to
|
||
test our IAP features.
|
||
|
||
IAP accounts
|
||
============
|
||
|
||
Credits to use IAP services are stored on IAP accounts, which are specific to each service and
|
||
database. By default, IAP accounts are common to all companies, but can be restricted to specific
|
||
ones. Activate the :ref:`developer mode <developer-mode>`, then go to :menuselection:`Technical
|
||
Settings --> IAP Account`.

IAP Portal
|
||
==========
|
||
|
||
The IAP Portal is a platform regrouping my IAP Services. It is accessible from
|
||
:menuselection:`Settings app --> Odoo IAP --> View my Services`. From there, I can view my current
|
||
balance, recharge my credits, review my consumption and set a reminder to when credits are low.

||
Get notified when credits are low
|
||
=================================
|
||
|
||
To be notified when it’s time to recharge my credits, I’ll go to my IAP Portal through
|
||
:menuselection:`Settings app --> Odoo IAP --> View my Services`, unfold a service and mark the
|
||
Receive threshold warning option. Then, I’ll provide a minimum amount of credits and email
|
||
addresses. Now, every time that the limit is reached, an automatic reminder will be sent to by
|
||
email!

IAP services available
|
||
======================
|
||
|
||
Different services are available depending on the hosting type of your Database:
|
||
|
||
- *Odoo Online (SAAS)*: only the IAP services provided by Odoo can be used (i.e. the SMS, Snailmail,
|
||
Reveal and Partner Autocomplete features);
|
||
- *Odoo.sh and Odoo Enterprise (on-premise)*: both the services provided by Odoo and by third-party
|
||
apps can be used.
|
||
|
||
Offering my own services
|
||
========================
|
||
|
||
I am more than welcome to offer my own IAP services through Odoo Apps! It is the perfect opportunity
|
||
to get recurring revenue for an ongoing service use rather than — and possibly instead of — a sole
|
||
initial purchase. Please, find more information at: :doc:`In-App Purchase
|
||
</developer/webservices/iap>`.
