The above given is a delivery order based on the invoice. In Odoo there are two invoicing policies.

Invoicing policy

Odoo gives two invoicing options

Invoice what is ordered: This enables the invoice to generate an invoice for the full order as soon as the sales order is confirmed.

Invoice what is delivered: Here, you can generate invoice on what you delivered even if it's a partial delivery.

odoo-sales-invoice

To enable the desired invoicing policy, Go to Sales>Configurations>Settings. Select the invoicing policy under Invoicing Option.

odoo-sales-invoice

In Odoo default mode is Invoice on ordered quantity. But the Invoice on delivered quantity can be beneficial for some business. For example, food businesses can use invoice on sold quantity.

A user can see the delivered and invoiced quantities on confirming the sale.

If you set the invoice policy as ordered quantitates, the invoice can be generated when the sale is confirmed.

odoo-sales-invoice

If the invoice policy is set as delivered quantities, the user will first have to validate the delivery. Then only they can generate an invoice. In case of partial delivery validation, the invoice will be based on the delivered quantity.

Automatic invoice

Odoo helps to generate the invoice automatically. Invoice generation gets automated when the online payment is confirmed.

To perform the action, go to Sales>Configuration > Settings and Activate Automatic Invoicing under Invoicing
