Direct Report Print Module for Odoo: One-Click Printing Made Simple

Printing important reports in Odoo—such as invoices, sales orders, purchase orders, or delivery documents—normally involves an extra step where Odoo asks whether the user wants to download the PDF or open it in the browser. While this default behavior works, it slows down workflows for businesses that print documents frequently and rely on speed and efficiency.

The Direct Report Print module removes this unnecessary step and allows users to print or download reports instantly with a single click. Whether you are generating a customer invoice, a sales quotation, or an inventory document, this module streamlines the process so you can print reports directly—saving time, reducing clicks, and improving productivity.

What Makes It Stand Out 

1. One-Click Report Printing: Skip Odoo’s default pop-up dialog. Just click the button, and your report prints or downloads immediately.

2. Works for All Odoo Reports: Invoices, sales orders, quotations, delivery slips, purchase orders, receipts—any report can be printed directly.

3. Improved Workflow Speed: Ideal for businesses that print high volumes of documents daily, such as retail, warehouses, logistics teams, and accounting departments.

4. Seamless Integration: No configuration required. Once installed, the feature works automatically with Odoo’s built-in reporting system.
