How to Make Down Payments with Odoo 16 POS App

Functional Odoo 16

After purchasing a product from a company, the buyer has the option of paying the full amount at once or through several installments. Odoo provides a downpayment tool to manage these periodic installments. Down payments can help you to improve your cash flow by providing you with upfront payments from your customers. This can be especially helpful if you are a small business or if you have seasonal fluctuations in sales. Down payments can help you to increase sales by making it easier for customers to afford your products or services. This is because they will not have to pay the full amount upfront. Down payments can be a great way to improve your cash flow and secure sales. By using down payments effectively in your business, you can help to grow it and improve your financial health.

Odoo 16 Point of Sale (POS) makes it easy to manage down payments, so you can track payments and ensure that you are properly invoicing your customers. Down payments can make it easier for customers to afford your products or services by allowing them to pay for them over time. This can be especially helpful if you are selling high-value items or if you are selling to customers who have a limited budget. In Odoo 16 POS, down payments can be set up as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the total sale. 

Now let’s move on to the down payments in the Odoo 16 PoS module. To use the down payment feature in Odoo 16’s PoS module, you have to first generate a sale order in the Sales module.

Now, head into the PoS module and complete the configuration of the down payment options in the settings.
